4341 N. Lincoln, (773)935-5511, traipseshoes.com
Goods: Shoes for men and women as well as a select line of CYDWOQ bags. Designers: CYDWOQ, Cordani, Tsubo, Camper, Gentle Soles and Trippen. Owner: Margaret Jung had her heart set on opening a clothing store until she tried on a pair of CYDWOQ shoes. Now she travels the world to handpick shoes for her Lincoln Square boutique. Vibe: The small, sparsely decorated space can seem intimidating since there is no room for the salespeople to hide, but browsing is highly encouraged. Price Range: Expensive. The Look: A touch from Traipse would elevate a pair of sweats to the look of a laidback hipster. Shopper’s Perks: Since Jung was one of the first to carry CYDWOQ shoes in Chicago, she can custom order a pair in any style and color. The Thing for Spring: Traipse is excited about their brand new space, positioned right next to the park. So you can take those soles for a spin immediately.
