The closing is another example of how the tough economy is affecting retailers. Last week, the ax fell on Mervyns and Linens 'n Things.
Shoe Pavilion won an emergency bankruptcy court order, allowing it to hire liquidators to close all its stores. The chain declared bankruptcy in July after five straight quarterly losses.

All store locations are expected to be closed within the next three months.
