A little of history

Founded in 1999 by Nick Swinmurn Zappos.com is now the number one internet retailer of shoes. Zappos Shoes came to dominate the online shoe business by offering free shipping on every order. In fact, starting in 2007 they are offering free overnight shipping. This is no small thing and Zappos spent over $100 million dollars on shipping costs in 2006. In fact, they only just started earning a profit this year.

People love Zappos not only because the shoes ship fast and free, but because if they don’t fit or they don’t like them. The return shipping is also free. This makes shopping for shoes on the internet very convenient when compared to shopping at the mall or going from store to store. Add to that the huge selection of over 500 name brand shoes, and we have a winner.

San Francisco web designer Jon Adams describes his experience:

Adams ordered two pairs of shoes from the site. When one didn’t fit, he exchanged them for another size and style. Then he purchased a third pair.

“It’s super easy to order, and super, super easy to return stuff,” says Adams, who spent about $215. “It’s just such a hassle to go around to stores.”

If you are shopping for great deals on shoes that ship fast and free you can’t do any better than shopping at Zappos.com. That why they are one of the Hot Picks here at Dream Closet Deals. Remember if you don’t like what you ordered, just send them back and continue shopping.
