July 2020 – present
LOCATION
Downtown Disney – California Sole sits on the eastern side of the district. If you’re coming from the parks side of the district, keep to the right. You’ll see the orange awning just after Napolini Pizzeria. If you’re coming from the hotels side, keep to the left. California Sole will be just after Salt & Straw, roughly across the walkway from Sephora.
EXPERIENCE
Details:
- Merchandise – sandals!
- Price Range – most pairs range between $30 and $60
- Unique Features – curved ceiling with mural of sky
Feet aching after walking everywhere? California Sole might be a safe haven. This sandal shop has comfortable styles for every member of your family, and its convenient location close to the hotels makes it easy to drop off your old shoes and put on a new pair.
SHOPPING TIPS
California Sole is one of those Downtown Disney shops that’s almost never overwhelmingly crowded, so there’s really no better or worse time to visit. My only suggestion would be to stop by on the way to your hotel room if you plan to wear your shoes and want to drop off the box (and your old pair!).
TRIVIA
California Sole opened in the summer of 2020, when Disneyland and California Adventure were both closed due to COVID-19. Downtown Disney initially closed with the parks in the spring of 2020, but reopened before the parks that July.
This location previously housed Sanuk, another shoe store.
