“Had a couple questions about ordering online, as we live outside of MA. The person on the phone was super helpful and helped address all my questions. Overall great customer service so far. Just placed my online order!”
“I bought a pair of Italian leather boots in Vienna as a souvenir. I wore them out, sadly. I absolutely LOVED these boots and LaRossa Shoe repair made them like new with new soles and heels! I was so pleased that I just brought in my favorite black pumps that my puppy decided to chow-down on….I cried!! I am a size 5 shoe and I rarely find shoes that fit me as terrifically as these do. LaRossa will repair them!!! I cannot say enough about this shoe and repair store! Love them and love the quality work that they are capable of doing!!! Many thanks LaRossa for repairing my fav boots and shoes! Nancy Roberge”
“Friendly workers. Running shoes, clothing, and gear are all high quality.I give 4 instead of 5 stars for two reasons. Mainly, there is no info on the shoes on the wall display. The Boston and Brookline locations list things like the model, stack height, and drop right next to the shoe. Cambridge really needs to do this.Secondly, the 3 shoes initially brought out didn’t match my foot scan at all. It was odd. But I did find a pair of Nikes I liked and was able to order them from Nike directly in the width I need. Note that width options are limited in most running stores. So I don’t fault Marathon sports for not carrying the wide.”
“Wonderful shoe store. Great stock. Best, most thoughtful service. The owner, is a gem. He goes out of his way to help you find what you want and what will serve you well. He doesn't rush you and he makes sure the shoe you pick is the right size for you. There aren't many shops like this anymore. Its a pleasure to shop there”
“Pretty groovy store. Every pair of Doc Martens you could possibly think of is sold here, even the sandals. They also sell socks, insoles and products to keep your new boots looking shiny.”
“I stopped in to get a hole punch into my leather bag strap and Greg and Amina were so kind and helped me free of charge! Greg had his tools ready to go and it look no time at all. So glad to have a leather store that extends a helping hand :)”
“I recently bought boots that didn’t fit quite right. I had used them for a couple days hoping they would break in but they didn’t. I was really stressing about what I could do at this point. I went back to the store hoping for some help but wasn’t expecting they could do much for me. The staff was wonderful and very understanding, they provided new boots for me that fit awesome!! Thank you for turning a stressful situation in to a positive experience!!! Red wing, Dedham, is the best!!!.”

“I came into Tecovas for the first time and honestly had such a great experience. I worked with Julia, and not only was she the sweetest but she helped so much to help me figure out sizing for my first pair of Tecovas! Everyone there was super sweet and made me feel so taken care of. I even had such a natural conversation with Julia, it was just really easy to talk to her and felt so welcoming. Thank you Julia for going above and beyond for me!!”
“This Columbia Factory Store is a great place to shop, especially if you’re looking for quality outdoor gear at amazing prices. You can usually find great deals throughout the store—whether it’s jackets, shoes, or activewear, there’s always something worth picking up.
What really stood out was the helpful staff—they even assisted us at checkout by pointing out additional discounts and deals we didn’t know about. It made the whole shopping experience even better. Definitely worth a visit if you’re near the outlet!”
“Excellent service, with every customer in the (crowded) store assigned their own sales rep. Took the time to talk me through my choice and I was very happy with the experience.”

“Scott and his team were fantastic!! We contacted ahead to ensure they had a few items in stock for my husband, and Brian was able to answer all of my questions. Scott, the owner, is undoubtedly passionate about what he and his team do; it was an amazing experience. They offered a large range, with many rooms including everything from sneakers to hats and clothing. It was completely worth the drive, and we can't wait to go back for more. We strongly recommend The Vault Lifestyle Boutique and their highly knowledgeable staff. They have something for everyone, including your husband, yourself, and the children.”

“The sports goods store located near the Assembly MRT often offers discounts on a wide range of clothing, shoes and sports accessories. Occasionally there will be additional discounts. For those who join the official website as a member for the first time, there will be discounts.”
“I have purchased several pairs of shoes from this store. Recently I became smitten with the Nansen, which offers a unique style and vibe sporting a slightly squared off toe box. My challenge was that I was close to an 11, but felt a little cramped. Justin was very accommodating and sent a size 12 with inserts, but my feet sloshed around in them. Then Justin came up with Plan C. He modified a Size 11, by stretching them out where I needed it. This final sale transaction was just what I needed to get a perfect fit. He also advised me on shoe polishing maintenance to keep me looking stylish. Justin a true gem, ever so thoughtful and resourceful. Thank you for working with me to overcome my impediments Justin.”
“ok if you read the one star review saying this is bad because its behind another store but DO NOT TURN AWAY. this is hands down the best sneakerstore I have ever been in and I have been in 60+ in the past 2 years. all the shoes are in amazing condition if they are used, amazing prices close to ebay personal pricing, all real, amazing worker. please come here if you love shoes and have the chance”
