About Me:

I started working for Brown’s in 2020 as a part time job after graduating from college until I could find my “full time career.” Little did I know I would fall in love with Brown’s and helping customers every day! I never could have imagined this path of life that I took but wouldn’t change it for the world.

I am beyond excited and incredibly grateful to be taking over the Brown’s Shoe Fit in Beatrice. Coming back home and being closer to family; putting down roots in the community that means so much to me makes this opportunity even more special. I wouldn’t choose any other place to live with my husband, our daughter, and our goldendoodle, Charlee. 

Some of my favorite things include:

Birkenstock shoes, quesabirra tacos, the winter season, rooting for the Huskers, and hanging out with my dog. She likes to help at the store, so you might get to meet her if you stop in!

A Shoe for Every Occassion

We offer a huge selection of name brand comfort shoes such as dress, casual, work, and athletic shoes for men, women, and children. Brown’s Shoe Fit Beatrice is also the largest Red Wing shoe dealer in Gage County and is certified by Union Pacific Railroad and Burlington Northern-Santa Fe Railroads. If we don’t have exactly what you’re looking for in store, we are more than happy to place special orders for our customers. Phone orders are also always welcome!

Find Your Fit

To ensure your perfect fit, we invite you to use our New Balance custom insole system to customize an orthotic to match your foot’s length, width and arch type. There’s no need to purchase a one-size-fits-all brand or make a hit and miss attempt at cutting a shape to fit your shoe. New Balance takes the guesswork out of the equation to provide a digital foot scan and optimal orthotic. From added pressure relief to improved alignment, fine-tune the fit of your shoe with the right insole.
