This was the best experience I've ever had going to a shoe store. He was very knowledgeable. You can tell he knows his stuff right when you walk it was very impressive and he wasn't pushy about buying anything. He recommended really great shoes for my low arches. I highly recommend this place.

Very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff! Thank you for advising I should get bigger shoes than my usual. Life changing. I did my half marathon twice without losing any toe nail! 😁😁😁
