My daughter's soccer shoes from WSS, MommyBlogExpert.com

The newest store in the chain will be open for business during the hours the block party is taking place and party goers are invited to take advantage of the many in-store special grand opening deals that will be available.  For the past decade I have personally shopped for my own family at the WSS location in our area, purchasing everything from running shoes for my husband and boys to soccer shoes for my daughter to sandals for myself to fashionable t-shirts for my other girl. 

The latest WSS location is the culmination of a major $5M renovation and design project which has revived a historical landmark formerly known as Young's Market Building. Inside the store definitely worth checking out is the "23 Steps to Immortality" museum-like display showcasing all of the actual Jordan shoes. These are numbered 1 through 23 with a special explanation of each shoe and the legendary accomplishments that Michael Jordan achieved while wearing each pair.

About WSS
WSS is a home-grown Los Angeles retail store success story, transitioning over the last 30 years from being a small neighborhood vendor. Eric Alon, founder and CEO of the chain, started out back in 1984 selling shoes out of the trunk of his car evolving into one of LA's top footwear retail powerhouse companies. The store offers customers a huge selection of value-priced clothing as well as athletic, dress, fashion and casual footwear for the entire family both for kids and adults including highly desirable brands such as Nike, Jordan, Vans, Converse, Adidas, Puma, Skechers and their own quality private brands.

Currently the brand has more than 67 locations in the Southland in Los Angeles and Orange County as well as in Las Vegas, Neveda and they're in the process of building out 23 Jordan "Shine on LA" concept shops within the stores with eight of these concept shops already open including the new LA flagship downtown location. The concept shops pay special homage to the Jordan athletes that have ties to the Los Angeles area including Chris Paul and Blake Griffin (both of the LA Clippers) and Russell Westbrook (Long Beach, Lawndale & UCLA).
