Very helpful. Special ordered and exchanged when the color didn’t meet expectations. The fitting process was great.

We had an excellent experience here getting my teenage daughter new training shoes. The associates were very friendly and helpful measuring her feet, their arches, etc and then recommending the perfect shoe. They were patient while she tried on and tested the shoe options. Would highly recommend!
