The city's head honcho. For generations Walter's has been anchored in the heart of downtown Atlanta providing consistent quality and great prices. There is no doubt to any native Atlantian that this sneaker gem is the heart and sole of the city.
Though Standard is a newcomer to the city, it brings a refreshing and innovative approach to the city's sneaker selection. Focusing on providing selective and widely sought after sneakers, the good folks at Standard have truly separated themselves from the other competition.
Wish has gotten international recognition as one of the top sneaker stores in the nation. The "library" located in the lower level is the mecca of rare and desired sneakers. It's criminal to be in the Little 5 area and not poke your head in to see what they've cooked up lately.
Every city needs a go-to sneaker place. This is Atlanta's. The best prices and running shoe selection in the city. Hands down.
Eclectic doesn't begin to describe the selection at Abbadabba's. Fabrics that you never envisioned you'd see on a pair of shoes are everyday occurrences at this Little 5 staple. If you're looking for something different, this is your spot.
