After almost a half-century, a well-known store at a Pittsburgh mall is shutting its doors.
MONROEVILLE, PA — When Naturalizer Shoes opened in Monroeville Mall, Jimmy Carter was president and people were flocking to movie theaters to see the John Travolta disco-themed film “Saturday Night Fever.”
Much has changed since then, but Naturalizer Shoes was a constant at the mall over the years. That’s about to change, however, as the store is closing on Dec. 31.
A retirement sale sign hangs above the store’s entrance and the impending closure was noted on the retailer’s Facebook page.
“Since 1977, we have been Pittsburgh’s destination shoe store, providing excellent service and fitting. Now, 47 years later, we’ve decided to hang up our shoe horns to spend more time with friends and family.“We would like to thank our past and present employees and especially our loyal, loving customers. The relationships and friendships that have been made over the years have been invaluable. We sincerely thank you for supporting our small business. We’ll miss you.”
