Comings & Goings: Pop-Up Cat Perkins Shoes to Main St.

Cat Perkins Shoes has opened a pop-up store at 136 Main St. with plans to stay open until Dec. 31. The space was occupied until two years ago by Johnston & Murphy, the upscale shoe and clothing brand. Cat Perkins manufactures its shoes in New York City, where it is based, which are designed to allow women to attach fresh “uppers” to soles to create their own styles. According to Catherine Levene (l), co-founder with Debra Perkins, the prices for the bottom part of the transformative shoe start at $167 and the interchangeable “uppers” range from $78 to $128.
