I've never experienced Road Runner Sports store before and I am so impressed by their service. I…read morehad a gentleman named David that helped me and he was very professional, was very kind and not pushy. He gave me the full experience. I feel like this is what places are missing, the human touch of real customer service. I understand they are there to make sales but not once was he trying to upsell me specific shoes. It was completely off what my comfort and fit. The value of this kind of service is much needed in a world of online shopping. Thanks David! Appreciate you!

Both my wife and I had an exceptional experience at Road Runner Solana Beach. Although they were…read morebusy, Spencer greeted us a welcome as we entered the store. She thoroughly asked questions as to my needs and quickly fitted my foot on their 3D and analyzed my results. I was surprised by the results. She explained the process thoroughly and recommended an insert. I have been having problems with my arch support and my Orthopedic recommended Road Runner. Great call! I left with a new pair of Nike shoes with the new custom made sole insert. My feet feel great, again. Oh, and that VIP pressure people talk about. Spencer explained it showing us how the numbers worked to our benefit. Savings in the long run and able to cancel at anytime. No sales pressure as I read some comments. Numbers did the trick!

You can tell they actually surf and really understand the gear, which makes a huge difference when you're trying to make the right decision. Their inventory is massive -- boards, wetsuits, accessories -- everything you could possibly need, and all high quality. What really stood out to me was the customer service. They take their time, answer every question, and make you feel taken care of without any pressure. I honestly wouldn't shop anywhere else. This is the kind of surf shop every town should have.

First time at Rusty's Surf Shop in Del Mar and such a great experience…read more We were in the area for lunch and ice cream and decided to wander in because our girls have been really excited about boogie boarding... and to be honest, we know absolutely nothing about it. We also love supporting small businesses when we can, so this felt like the perfect stop. Right when we walked in, we noticed how clean, organized, and well-stocked the shop was. There's a ton to choose from, which could feel overwhelming, but the two women working behind the register immediately stepped in and made the whole experience easy and actually really fun. They took the time to understand what we were looking for -- something beginner-friendly that the girls could enjoy without it being too advanced. One of the boards the girls were drawn to was actually more high-performance, and instead of just selling it to us, they guided us to a better option. Honestly, they saved us money and probably saved us from a frustrating first experience. They walked us through how to properly size the boards, explained what to look for, and even set everything up at checkout -- attaching the leash and showing the girls how to use it. They also gave a few quick tips that made us feel way more confident heading to the beach. That kind of service is rare. We also picked up a rash guard for my husband (great quality, he loves it) and a cute little shell bracelet that was perfect for the beach vibe. Is it the absolute cheapest place you'll find a bodyboard? Probably not. But the quality, the guidance, and the customer service more than make up for it. You're not just buying a product here -- you're getting help from people who genuinely care that you have a great experience. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Del Mar.

First time here tonight for the store's 10th anniversary fun run!…read more Another runner in another run club told me about this, so of course, I had to come check it out. It was also a special run to celebrate 10 years of Fleet Feet, which was very fun. Lots of shoe demos here by Saucony, Hola, Addidas, etc. There was also a snow cone truck here too, free cookies and beverages were being given away. I couldn't stay for the raffle but heard a $200 gift card and some sneakers also given away. Yea! I'll def come back for this Wed fun run club! Will alternate between Lake Miramar and here!

I have been here twice now because they give you the attention you need. Both times they assessed my foot and how I walk to help me decide on insoles and shoes. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Good selection. I went to Road Runner before but prefer this smaller store where it doesn't feel like chaos. I have one person helping me the entire time. The prices are as expected. I don't know if they have sales. Both times I came they did not but I found their insight and help valuable.

This store is not as big as other stores I have visited, but they still carry a lot of great items for adventuring. I like the fact that this store specializes in surf gear. I trust the Patagonia brand and their clothing and hats always fit well and last a long time. I wear a lot of Patagonia when I am on the trail or kayaking. Yes, they are a bit pricey but I like knowing that what I purchase is not going to tear or fall apart. We were greeted by friendly and helpful staff. I just browsed while my friend found herself a new hat. She received great service when checking out and I would definitely shop here in the future. Thanks Patagonia for keeping me warm and comfortable on the trail and cool when I am on the water.
