Artekantropus was growing nationally, it focused on catering to customers' needs, individually. Instead of categorizing departments by merchandise, artekantropus created fashion departments that fit individuals' lifestyles.
Today, artekantropus has grown from one downtown Seattle shoe store into a nationwide fashion specialty chain with renowned services, generous size ranges and a selection of the finest apparel, shoes and accessories for the entire family.
The company's philosophy has remained unchanged for more than 4 years since its establishment by john w. Artekantropus in 2001: Offer the customer the best possible service, selection, quality and value.
