    Quality store...quality products...quality staff
    Mitchel S.

    Flat feet at Fleet Feet! It's absolutely amazing as I grow older how obvious it is that so many of our qualities both internal and external are genetic and molded by our ancestors. I have watched kids become their parents with qualities they swore they would never have. Sometimes things like stubbornness or inquisitiveness or a ravenous appetite can be passed on from generation to generation. I have watched young people grow up to have the same big butt or the same brown curly hair as their Dad, or the long legs and fingers of their Mom. Although I am not giving us a carte blanche to accept everything about ourselves because we can blame it on genes, we can learn to be a little more forgiving of ourselves for qualities physically, emotionally or mentally that we find unsettling or unattractive. Rather, we must learn to become friends of those qualities for they are indeed a part of us and a part of our genetic makeup My Mom blessed me with intelligence, strength, resilience, curiosity, kindness, generosity and talent. She blessed me with thick black hair, olive skin, an open smile and good bone structure. My father blessed me with flat feet! For years I got away with wearing cheap shoes even though I should have been wearing something of quality on my two flat tootsies. As you get older, things start to catch up with you, and although I look pretty good for my age. I would be remiss to not tell you that I owe a lot of it to Rogaine, Just for Men, and Weight Watchers. And now that I find myself at 68 training three times a week, riding my bike and walking daily, my flat feet have finally had enough and have been crying out for something better on them other than Walmart and Target. When my podiatrist told me I needed to get myself quality sneakers if I'm going to train and walk and be active, I headed over to Fleet Feet for my flat feet fleet up on Lawndale. I used to get very anxiety ridden about walking into a store where I am going to be approached and serviced, but as I've gotten older and I'm starting to spend a few dollars to have some nice things, I welcome being approached and feeling I have gotten the proper attention to justify the big ticket item I am about to purchase. Fleet Feet was very easy to find with plenty of parking right up front. I was immediately assigned a salesman who took plenty of time with me and was a real gentleman. After I explained my story, he did some kind of digital imaging of my foot and showed me what he saw. Within moments he accurately diagnosed where my feet are lacking in having an arch and what kind of running shoe would be a good fit for me We tried on several pairs including some attractive sneakers from New Balance and  Hoka, but I kept coming back to an attractive and comfortable pair made by Brooks. It felt very cushioned and firm and had a nice arch in the back to take the pressure off of my heel which has been giving me a hissy fit. I also loved that it had a spot of bright blue on the sneaker and the laces themselves which livened up my normal wardrobe of black and black. I kind of clutched my pearls when he told me the price was $130, but from what I am reading online and hearing from those who refuse to buy footwear at Walmart, this price was quite normal and fair for something of such high quality. Although I normally wear an 11 and a half, these sneakers called for a 12 and a half size, so be aware of that when shopping. I was so in love with these sneakers that I wore them out of the store (after paying of course) and have been enjoying them ever since. I even wore them for my first day of teaching at Elon both for comfort and so the students would think I'm cool LOL On my way home from Fleet Feet, I suddenly remembered that as a young child as poor as we were, my mother always took me to the Florsheim shoe store on Allerton Avenue in the Bronx to get me nice shoes. My clothes might have been from a bargain basement, but my shoes always came from a fine store made of a fine quality. I think I forgot about Mom's wisdom as an adult as I have tried to navigate not spending lots of money on shoes and always going for something that is cheap but looks good. I just finished my morning walk and my Brooks sneakers made it enjoyable and comfortable. Mom always knew what she was talking about! So in closing, be kind to yourself. Accept and celebrate the qualities we have, learn how to be comfortable with them and embrace them and if you are like me, I think you will be very satisfied at Fleet Feet for flat feet!

It is easy to turn right into the parking lot but not so easy turning back out left. I was greeted by friendly reps who helped me. They almost gave me the wrong item. I looked at baseball gloves while I waited for them to sort it out and there were no prices on the mitts. Large, bright store with steady traffic. A lot of products in the store. You can purchase on line and pick up item, I guess the norm now.

    I can't say enough positive things about this location. The service is always exceptional…read more(especially in firearms) the prices are the absolute best and if it's not in stock, they'll order it for you or you can use the app. Now the app is a separate bonus and they are always sending me coupons for discounts. In fact, I sometimes wonder how they make any money. I usually always go here for most of my outdoor essentials. Get the app and the card. If you are responsible with money and pay off the card, you'll save tons of money. Also, when you order on line, shipping is free & quick. I think people are intimidated by big boxes and expect someone to be groveling to help them. Stop looking for the negatives and start looking at the bottom line. It's not that much of an inconvenience to ask someone for help and I'm certain they will assist!

Staff was very helpful, today was the first day they were open, so everywhere I went someone was asking if they could help me with anything. The guy at the front door gave me a 10 minute tutorial on the store and the big animal display at the front entrance. I learned that all the animals have names, but I have no clue what they were, I think the bear was named Bubba.

From the outside it's a beautiful store and very large . When we walked in there was plenty to see and we perused the aisles . I made my way to the guns counter which is what I wanted to see . Service ? Hah ok . No one said a word . No " can I help you ? How are you folks doing ? Nothing . I said to myself they're probably distracted or whatnot but no . More less chumming it up with one another . As far as the selection goes I saw what I originally had seen on line and at a decent price . If I was to order elsewhere I'd have to deal with shipping etc so the cost wasn't the best but it evened out . We stood there for a few and watched this fellow walk right on by and nope not a word . By then the wide am was fed up and loudly said Hi how are you ? And the. He spoke up . By then we were done so no you cannot help me and I will take my business elsewhere.

DSG is a big sponsor of the local sports leagues so we try to support them as much as we can. The downside to this store: the staff looks a little sketchy and they are not very friendly, the prices (even clearance items) are high. We give them some slack because we know they support the community and most large stores hire lower skilled workers, like the ones at DSG, and try to compete on price alone.

    Prior to driving an hour to get there I called to inquire to see if the items I was looking for…read morewere in store. The person I spoke with stated that items of different sizes as I was requesting were available. Well, upon arrival I was to say the least very disappointed. There was hardly any stock of the brand I wanted in the store. After walking all over the store to find someone to assist us, I finally found someone. With the poor selection I had to order another item online. When I asked a different sales person about helping me after I'd purchased one item. He asked me had I paid for the item my grandson was holding paid for, I promptly showed him the receipt in my hand. He then instructed me to the bat area and said he would be there to assist with ordering the additional item. He never showed, so I looked for the original person who assisted us and finally saw him and waved him over. With all this being said, never again will I visit this store. It is beyond poor customer service.
