Hey Manila, guess what? Payless is celebrating 14 amazing years in the Philippines, and we’re here for it! Since stepping into the local scene in July 2010, Payless has been our go-to for stylish, affordable footwear for the whole family. Thanks to their partnership with Footwear Specialty Retailers, Inc. (FSRI), a division of the retail giant Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI), they’ve been making waves and winning hearts across the nation.
The Journey of Payless in the Philippines

Just stroll through the aisles, find your size and style, and you’re good to go! Need accessories? They’ve got you covered with bags, socks, insoles, and shoe cleaners.
