Abbadabba’s- Kennesaw

Specialties

Our Mission is to be Atlanta’s Premier Source for Innovative Comfort Footwear. What really stokes our coals is to turn somebody on to some really cool, comfortable shoes, and watch them walk out the door knowing they’ll never feel the same about their feet again. Our look may be far forward and progressive (some call us the «bleeding edge» of footwear retailing) but our methods are very traditional.

We want to pamper you in the kind of service you don’t get in retail stores anymore. We want to put on a show for you, with our products as the stars of the show. Some of our customer favorite brands include Birkenstock, Dansko, Merrell, Naot, Sanita, Toms, Ugg, Vibram Five Fingers, Inov8, and Chaco. We also carry Converse, Keen, Crocs, Reef, Simple, Terra Plana, Teva, Vans, Wolverine, Clarks, Red Wing, FitFlop, Frye, Mephisto, Rainbow, Saucony, MBT, Earth, Sperry, Airwar, and so much more.

History

Established in 1981.

Established in 1981.

Abbadabba’s was started by Janice Abernethy. Her tiny little crafts shop near Emory’s law school expanded into a booth at the Atlanta Flea Market and other flea markets. In 1981, Janice opened her first «real» store in Little 5 Points, Atlanta’s alternative neighborhood. The Little 5 Points store was a flea market in itself: toys, cards, gifts, jewelry, and some funny looking shoes in the back. In 1986, Janice’s husband, Bill Carmichael, left a career at Georgia-​Pacific to join Janice full time, and the decision was made to focus on footwear. Within a year, shoes accounted for most of our sales. Buoyed by metro-​wide customer enthusiasm, the Buckhead store was opened in 1990. Since then, we have continued to expand in Atlanta and now have four «bricks and mortar» locations (East Cobb, Buckhead, Kennesaw and Little 5 Points) and online sales at cool​shoes​.com.
