I stopped in at Hanson's today looking for some information and help regarding Hoka shoes. I had recently had a poor experience at Dick's Sporting Goods when I attempted to do the same. The sales associate there did not offer any help or information. A friend suggested Hanson's was the place to go to get some real help. When I entered the store I was greeted immediately by a young man who asked if he could help me. I told him I had heard a lot about Hoka shoes but wondered if he could give me some info and told him I wasn't a runner but wondered which style might work for walking. He gave me some very general info and then abruptly walked away when a couple walked in the door and then proceeded to assist them without excusing himself or indicating he'd get back to me. I wandered around a bit and tried on a pair of Hokas with no one approaching me. I'm a shopper and with some help and encouragement I know I would have walked out with a pair of shoes but I was basically completely ignored. Don't know what the problem was but I certainly will never return to this location.

My husband, daughter, and I went here on a recommendation from my Dr. after I broke my foot. The clerk was knowledgeable, and let me try on different pairs of shoes to find the brand I needed. My husband ended up buying a pair of shoes as well. Will let more ppl know about this place

My wife had gone to this shop before and they were very accommodating with getting her into a pair of shoes that felt right. I finally decided to invest in a good pair of shoes and try and involve so more running into my exercise routine. The staff was welcoming and very kind when I came in. They were attentive to what I was looking for and helped lay out a several pairs of shoes to get the fit and style of shoe whittled down. I came out with a pair of shoes that I love the look and support of. There was a couple of styles that I liked but the GPW store didn’t have in stock. They called to other stores and said they could have the pair delivered to the store the next day. I really appreciated that. I will definitely be coming back for my next pair of shoes.

Places like this don't exist anymore. They have hundreds of shoes from which to choose, but if you ask a (friendly) associate, they will have you step on a pad and show you exactly the type of shoe that will save your legs and hips as you add mileage. For me, that narrows my selection to 3-4 choices, preventing choice paralysis. You pay a local business premium, but it's totally worth it.

I cannot recommend this place enough for a large variety of their Brooks tennis shoes and the staff there is extremely helpful. I won't be going anywhere else to purchase my shoes but hansons.

JohnW was a great help! He pulled a variety of brands for me to try. He was encouraging when I told him I was getting back into running and races. Thank you!

I deliver mail for a living and I needed a good walking shoe that was also comfortable. I came in today and I was greeted and waited on by Dave and Tim. The shoes I picked out are super comfortable and the service was excellent!!! Thank you Dave and Tim for your knowledgeable and friendly service!!! ??

My husband and I had a very nice experience at this shop this afternoon. He had been shopping around for a shoe for work that would offer more support due to some foot problems, and had tried a pair of Brooks shoes he liked at a big box store the day before but wanted to sleep on it and shop around a bit more. As soon as we entered Hanson’s a salesperson (I believe Zac?) asked if he could help and quickly got to work getting several pairs of shoes together for my husband to try. He was very patient and extremely knowledgeable about the different types of shoe, easily answering all my husband’s questions. It’s rare to find great customer service like that anymore (at one of the chain stores we tried the previous day the employees didn’t even acknowledge us). And honestly pricewise the shoes we ended up purchasing there were selling for the same price as the big box store. We will likely be back as we live nearby and they had several pairs in stock of the Hoka OneOnes I’ve been eyeing. The cool reusable bags were also a plus!

Went in to get my “first” pair of legit, good running shoes. Was helped by David I believe. Ran me through 6 different pairs before we figured the right fit for me! Great experience!

Today was my first visit, and I will certainly be back. The associates are super helpful, patient and knowledgeable. They took the time to try me in multiple shoes to make sure I was getting what would work best for me.
