Remember yesterday when we were speculating a Chicago store for Aquatalia? We just got word back from footwear brand that the company has no plans to open a Chicago store. If you love the brand and just can't get enough sensible comfort or durable Midwest weather-worthy boots or the like, you can still shop Shirise, Saks, Neiman's and Nordstrom, sometimes DSW and Lori's.
