• AWESOME! I had been told by a friend that this place was excellent at helping you to find the right shoe and that there was no discomfort from beginning a new workout regime. Well they were right! After having me remove my shoes & socks then roll up my pant legs they had me walk on a treadmill while being videoed from behind. It was quite clear that my fallen arches had me walking pronated and my tibia was turned toward the opposite knee! The sales person grabbed a few shoes, including some from the sales rack, and began to fit me just like a shoe store from the "old" days. – Lisa B., Yelp
• I tested my shoes the same day I got them as I went to the gym and took a good run on the treadmill. After my session, I felt great and the shoes were wonderful! – Kristen M., Yelp
