In March of 1930, George and Bill Phillip opened a shoe store at 4906 W. Cermak Road in Cicero, IL. The business focused on providing the folks in the Western Suburbs - especially those who worked at the huge Western Electric Hawthorne Works (just a block away) - with arch supports and shoes for problem feet and hard-to-fit feet. The store sold a complete line of Dr. Scholl's arch supports as well as other foot products.

When the Scholl Manufacturing Company closed around 1985, the Phillip's business sold a variety of supports and in 2003 began fitting customers with the Alznner-designed arch supports.  These supports were developed after 20 years of research by Dr. George Alzner who devoted a lifetime developing a support that would return a "problem" foot back to the alignment of a healthy foot with a completely natural approach and product.

To complement the arch supports, Phillip's Footery carries an extensive line of Spira Athletic shoes with Wave Spring technology, which reduces the strain on the joints and lower legs. These supports and shoes provide magnificent benefits for not only the feet but also the body.   Most people discover they can return to the activities they had to stop because of foot, leg or back discomfort.

For over 76 years the folks at Phillip's Footery have been serving customers throughout the Chicagoland area providing personalized, caring service along with the best products available on the market today.  Our goal is to have every customer feel they have made one of the best purchases of their life.

Try the supports, try the shoes, try them both and get a new, active life!
