FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHO DO YOU HELP, AND HOW DO I FIND THE RIGHT SHOE?
We help people with running, walking, work, workouts, everyday wear, foot issues, and more—not just runners. We consider your gait, activity, history, preferences, and goals, then bring you several options and use your feedback to narrow it down.
WILL IT COST MORE TO SHOP LOCALLY? DO YOU HAVE SALES & CLEARANCE?
No. Current shoe models are generally sold at brand-set prices, so you get the same great shoes while supporting a local business. Yes—when new models arrive, previous models may move to clearance. We also offer select discounts for veterans, healthcare workers, students, and others.
RETURNS, BRANDS & SIZES
Our return policy is 14 days—even if you've worn them outside. Sometimes you need to put some miles on a shoe before you know it's right. We carry Brooks, HOKA, On, Saucony, ASICS, Mizuno, and New Balance. If we don't have your size or color, ask us. We do our best to stock a full range, including wide widths, and can often order what you need.
SHIPPING, FOOT CARE & MORE
Yes, we ship shoes and accessories throughout the continental U.S. We can help with footwear and support options for plantar fasciitis and other foot issues. We also carry running and walking shoes, trail shoes, insoles, socks, compression, braces and supports, recovery sandals, apparel, hydration, massage tools, cold-weather gear, nutrition, and more.
