This Foot Locker store opened roughly a year ago. It is where Go For Tea was for years…read more A couple of Saturdays ago, I was in downtown Markham to see a movie at Cineplex. I was early and felt the urge to check this store out. Eons ago, I went shopping with my parents for running shoes. I needed a pair for gym class in grade 7. We went to a Lady Foot Locker (I don't even know if they still exist) and got a pair of Puma sneakers that had Velcro straps instead of laces. I loved them so much. I wish I still had a pair. This store is spacious. It has sections for men, women, and kids. You can get everything from athletic apparel to Crocs. There was a sale going on, which was nice. I wasn't looking for anything to purchase. I like browsing and noticed a couple of details that made me think that Foot Locker isn't for me. When I got my Puma sneakers at Lady Foot Locker, my shoe size was a women's 10. It was a easier to find a pair of shoes. Let's discuss my looking at cool Converse sneakers for women. Foot Locker does not offer these cool women's sneakers in a women's 11, which I am now. I have to resort to dipping into the men's Converse section and getting a men's size 9. The colours and styles for men aren't as vast and pleasing as the women's. The other thing that seemed odd to me was no Toronto Maple Leafs merchandise. Why is that? The team was still in the playoffs when I had visited. I know that it's tough being a Leafs fan, but you should still offer Leafs t-shirts or something. This store supports the Raptors and Blue Jays. You can get an England soccer (football) jersey here. You can also purchase a New York Yankees jacket. Why omit hockey? Weird. If you are exhausted from exercising your credit card at either this store or anywhere downtown, you can sit outside on one of the coloured chairs and relax. It's where the Go For Tea patio used to be. This store is okay if you have smaller feet than I do and don't care about hockey. I'd come back to get a Blue Jays baseball shirt because it looks cool and I don't have one. Other than that, I probably won't drop by as often as it's not geared towards a hockey fan with big feet for a woman. (147)

I had the most wonderful, caring and extremely knowledgeable woman help me. She spent a lot of time with me & eventually I ordered a pair of shoes however on arrival(which was very quick by the way) the right shoe did not help w/my pain at all. So I went back to return the shoes and ask for help a 2nd time. I found out this woman's name is MILA and once again, she spent a lot of time in measuring, discussing etc. and she came up with a 2nd pair of shoes for me to try. That pair arrived(again...in quick time)and I am soooo happy to say that they fit BOTH feet perfectly and they are the most comfortable shoes I've worn in many years. I know this is because of the great, personal service given by MILA; I just want to publicly thank her for all that she did for me. I highly recommend her....and the Running Room in Markham.

The owner is very friendly and she remembers all of her customers and what they've purchased before. The owner is very honest by telling you which shoe is good/comfortable/not comfortable and is not pushy at all. There is no set store hours but she usually opens around 1-2pm and close around 7pm. Majority of the shoes are $200+, with a few pairs on sale (usually the last pair). The prices are comparable to Nordstrom for the same style and brand, but she carries more sizes. All the shoes are very high quality and are usually made in Italy or Spain. Some brands include Aquatalia, AGL, Stuart Weitzman, and Cole Haan. She carries a lot of size 4/4.5 shoes that no other store carry as she orders directly from the manufacturer in Europe. I have size 4 feet so I have to buy most of my dress shoes here. She also carries handbags and clutches. If you have small feet I highly recommend visiting K&J!

As I entered I was greeted by a very friendly lady asking if I needed help or was looking for anything in particular. I told her I was just browsing so she backed off. As I walked through the store I saw all kinds of sparkly accessories, dresses, shoes, purses and cute outfits. All displays were put together perfectly by colour and many included shoe combinations to go with the outfit. As I wandered about and fell in love with a pair of shoes the sales lady appeared. She explained that their speciality is putting outfits together for people or accessorizing and outfit that someone brings into the store. (she must have noticed the confused look on my face) Perfect!!! I am always in a rush and I am not so good at putting things together so, I picked up the shoes and then......... I asked what would go with the shoes. Yes, I know it was kinda like shopping backwards.... picking shoes first then the outfit. Not bad for someone who was just browsing. Next thing I knew, I ended up purchasing a lovely summer dress and a hand bag to go with the dress and some bling bling bracelets. I left the store with a huge smile then thought to myself now I need a fresh haircut....It was easy shopping and very well priced. I will be back.

Mine isn't a fake review, and I can provide photos, so before you visit, please read my review. I don't know, maybe my expectations were too high, or maybe my request was just too hard? I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but after wearing the results, I'm afraid I have to give this two stars. I have a pair of shoes that I've worn for two to three years straight, every single day. I love it, and bought it in Japan. Not very expensive, only around $40. Recently, it's been flaking more and more, as it's waterproof and I will sometimes walk over snow and rain. I wanted to wear it for a lot longer, so I looked for places for shoe repair. Maybe this is on me, but I just went with the first place that had a good review and was relatively close. The guy was nice about it as I explained, and at first he said it was impossible. I just wanted to replace the leather, and I said that if he could do it, even if it was expensive, I would pay. That was probably a mistake, but I've never gotten anything repaired before, so please excuse my ignorance. He was like, okay, what if we put real leather and change out the sides, so at least the cracked part will no longer be cracked? And we resole it and make it look like new? I explained that I didn't care what he did, as long as he kept the inside and that when I slipped on the shoe, it would be as comfortable as the first day I bought it. And so we finalized and I paid, and left to await the news to pick it up, which he said would be a week later. Let me preface this to say, I did not request a resoling, he was the one to bring it up. I only wanted to cracks replaced, and I thought, oh, if he's changing out the sides, then maybe he needs to resole? When I got back to my car, my dad asked me how it was. I told him I paid upfront, and it was $200. He told me it wasn't worth it, and that I could've bought four new shoes with that money. It was actually closer to $226, I guess with tax? But he didn't say that when I was paying, and I didn't pay attention to the price when paying, so I assumed it was a flat $200. Also, I paid upfront, but my dad told me that I shouldn't have, as he had the shoes, and I couldn't guarantee he would do a good job. In retrospect, that maybe should have clued me in to the product I was getting. But I also can't be sure that maybe that's how things are done in the shoe repair industry now? But I was pretty nervous and didn't think of these things. My dad also said that if I wanted to keep the comfort of the shoes, the guy wouldn't have said to resole it for me. As the soles were part of the comfort of the shoe, and the insides were not the only thing that was important. I tried to call him after I got home to tell him not to resole, but he told me that he had already started fixing the shoe. Okay, it was too late, but I figured, since he knows about shoes, maybe the sole wasn't as important to the comfort as my dad had said? And here's where we get to the crux of the matter. When I got the shoes, it looked... well, not that great. I was expecting better integration of the leather, and not this slapdash stitching. Maybe that's just my unrealistic expectations or that I'm an artist, fine. But the most important part, the comfort and pillowy feeling of the shoe when I put it on... it's gone. Now it's like stepping into tap dancing shoes, or those really cheap shoes you get at fast fashion stores. The sole feels flat, thin and cheap. I didn't ask for the resoling. I only asked for the cracks to be fixed. If he was only going to stick the leather on top of the shoe and stitch it, like it totally looks in the picture, why did he need to resole it? I can't guarantee that's what he did exactly, but it looks like that, and it kind of feels like that too. I guess he polished it too, but it's not noticeable because he didn't fix the other small cracks. As a shoe repairman, shouldn't you know that when a person wants to keep the comfort level of the shoe, that a sole replacement would change that? But no, he told me that the comfort level would stay the same. That's a lie. My dad told me straight off that the sole would change the feel of the shoe, and he's a layperson. I didn't know that, and now I'm paying for shoes that don't look that great, and the soles are making my feet hurt. Every time I wear these shoes now, I'm depressed, and I utterly regret getting these shoes repaired. This actually made me cry. These were my favourite pair of shoes, and I was hoping I could continue wearing them for two more years. Now that the comfort is gone, I don't know what was the point. I don't even feel like wearing them as it feels like I am stepping on flat floor instead of wearing shoes. I had such high hopes, but now I'm never getting any shoes repaired ever again.
