My husband and I were very pleased with our first visit. The sales lady was so helpful and friendly.

So helpful even though I wasn’t going to buy any shoes today. They were willing to bring out several shoes to try on, gave me advice on equipment and advised me not to spend unnecessary amounts of money. Overall great experience.

Ordered exactly the shoe I wanted. Received in a timely fashion. Owners are very helpful, polite and know their product. I will definitely recommend them to my family and friends.
