As the Davisites will tell you, Shuz used to just be Birkenstocks and kids Birkenstocks, before they expanded their selection greatly. Shuz was originally located at 710 2nd Street, and was called Birkenstock Plus. Their expanded line of products prompted their renaming and move to the current, much larger location in the Chen Building.

Later, brands such as ![[wikipedia]](http://wikispot.org/wiki/eggheadbeta/img/inter.png){kind=small}

2005-07-25 18:06:04 can't stand the name —BrianDarnell
2005-07-26 12:31:34 Too expensive. Either that, or maybe I'm just not cultured enough to wear shoes that cost $200. —LacyCollum
2005-07-26 22:35:52 I can't stand the name either. I work in the same building and I always think it is funny seeing the sandals in the window that are advertised as waterproof. —NickSchmalenberger
2005-11-24 10:14:31 They don't sell Doc Martens'. Nobody in Davis sells Docs, except sometimes the SPCA Thrift Store. —EmmaCoats
2006-03-07 11:01:00 Good service. High quality, comfortable, durable shoes. Worth checking for closeout bargains. —DickWarg
2006-05-04 20:06:55 Really helpful service, wish I could afford the shoes:) —JenCam
2006-10-01 22:32:55 Fo Shuzzle! —JohnMolina
2006-10-08 15:34:23 What's their pricing policy? Do they match their competitors? Can you negotiate? —LiRic
2006-11-02 17:13:27 Prices are pretty much set, but they do offer ten to fifteen percent off coupons in the Green machine and newspaper ads. Also, they have sales about once a season. (I work there, could you tell?) —ClaireImpens
2006-11-02 18:42:58 I bought some groovy shoes there last year. I like them a lot. Also, have spent a fortune on kids shuz... —RocksandDirt
2006-11-02 18:42:58 How is the name pronounced? Does it rhyme with "does" (not the female deer), or "buzz" or "fuzz?" Would somebody let us know. Because "Shuz" sure doesn't remind me of footwear.
How can you trust a store whose name you can't pronounce?
BrianKenyon
2006-11-11 12:04:21 It's pronounced like shooz. And to think, there are 6 other stores with the same name! —ClaireImpens
2006-11-12 15:37:21 even though it's prounced shoes I still say it phonetically in my head —StevenDaubert
2006-11-28 17:45:41 Attentive, friendly service. I think the shoes seem to be on the pricier end b/c they only really carry high quality shoes. —JeffEdwards
2006-11-30 18:05:35 SAS (there's a store in Citrus Heights) also makes pricey and very comfortable shoes. —RalphFinch
2007-06-28 11:08:19 I try on the shoes there and then buy them online at a better price. —steph
2007-07-29 13:43:15 Great service. The prices are retail, but there's usually a 10% off coupon in the green machine. I like to try shoes on and support local business. For those who try the shoes on at the store then buy cheaper online, I'll point out that without business the store won't be around so you can try on those shoes. It's worth paying for the service. —rachelss
2008-01-27 15:44:08 THEY ARE GREAT! PRICES ARE BASED ON THE QUALITY OF SHOES.....AND THE SERVICE THAT YOU WILL RECIEVE WHEN YOU ARE SHOPPING THERE. TRUST ME ITS WORTH IT. YOU WOULD BUY 4 OR 5 PAIRS OF CHEAP SHOES FOR THE SAME PRICE AS YOU WOULD BUY ONE PAIR THAT WOULD LAST 5 YEARS OR MORE!!!!! —KWILSON
2008-02-26 09:01:03 Does anyone have an updated web address for this place? This one doesn't work. —Red
2008-03-06 00:10:05 The owners are debating whether or not to update the website or scrap it so as of now the best way to check out the shoes is to come on by...we're nice don't be afraid....there's even a candy bowl (usually) :) —daniellotangello
2008-03-15 17:43:20 Great service! I got a pair of shoes there that ended up being uncomfortable. I had bought that brand before, so I didn't really try them on in the store as much as I should have. I was worried about taking them back to Shuz because I had managed to lose the receipt, but they took them back with no hassle for the full price I paid and helped me find a more comfortable brand. Very nice. :) —HeatherBeck
2008-04-05 00:43:29 Nice store, odd worker...kept decorating himself with the merchandise. PS We luv u mr. mountain man. 
—EBvil
2008-06-04 20:41:31 What's the deal with the website? —AllisonEriksen
2009-06-20 17:43:41 I don't like the name and the prices are high. But the staff is really nice. —jsg718
2009-06-20 21:56:14 "Shuz" is the name, but with what do it rhyme? Scuz? Drudges? Blues? Fuzzes? News? I'm confused, Shuz loses; guess elsewhere I must for footwear shop, since by the name no telling what they sell. —BrianJKenyon
