Based on our conversation, I could definitely tell that he knows a lot about shoes and running in general. He was very patient with us, letting us try multiple options and test them by running back and forth until we found the right fit. At the end of the day, we found the perfect pair, and have been happy with them ever since. Rose is absolutely adorable and such a sweet dog. I immediately fell in love with her! I highly recommend Heart & Sole because I don't think you'll find a more personalized shoe-fitting experience anywhere else. We will be back!

I've been a customer at the Santa Rosa fleet feet and have been buying my running shoes at FFSR…read more since 2003. They've helped me get ready for more than a dozen marathons and other races. This is not just a retail store, this is a place where active people can come to be a part of a community. I recently visited the store because I needed to be fit for a new running shoes as the brand I had been using discontinued my shoe model. As a long time marathon runner, I know that value of having the proper shoe for my gait body mechanics. The store offers a state of the art analysis to scan your foot anatomy as well as record your stride / foot strike to see what type of shoe you may need. The process takes about 30 minutes as the next step includes trying out the shoes which are designed for your specific needs ( neutral/ stability etc). This level of service is complementary; no purchase necessary. In addition to their gear, the store also offers a variety of training programs to support novice and experienced runners/walkers. Many participants became longtime friends. If you're looking to get started with a walk or run program or just need some new gear, this is a great option.

The shoe selection was great, especially the sale section with an extra 30% off already marked-down styles! On top of that, they were running a gift card scavenger hunt, and I ended up winning a $25 gift card that needed to be used that day, which was such a fun surprise and perfect timing for the holidays. They have options for women, men, and kids, each with plenty of discounted styles to choose from. The staff was friendly, offered help while I was searching for heels, and even came over to congratulate me when I found the gift card. Overall, a great shopping experience!

I would have considered trying on shoes outside the clearance section, but that would have required help from staff, who seemed to be absent from assisting customers. The service would accurately be described as non-existent when I visited with a group of 4 people. We were not greeted, and no one approached us to see if they could help us at any point until we were leaving. When we were leaving one employee who was coming in from outside spoke to us. The prices also seemed really high for the quality and brands of shoes they had for sale. I doubt I'll be returning here.

She's one of the most rudest woman I've ever met. Has zero customer relation, skills. This lady in her mid 60s to 70 years old. When a customer asked a question about shoes. You don't be rude about it. Almost felt like she didn't even want me in the store. Having a condescending attitude really doesn't win over my business. All I wanted to do is buy my wife some shoes for Christmas. I walked out and left I wouldn't recommend buying anything from the store until they get rid of this lady. Who's operating the front desk? I own a business and if my employee ever disrespected a customer like she did, I would fire them. Talk about having repeat customers they definitely lost my business.

It's enormous -- the kind of enormous where you half-expect to find a lost civilization in the camping section. And somehow they have everything. Outdoor gear, bike shop, rentals for basically any activity you've ever considered trying drunk at a party, lift ticket discounts... if it involves fresh air and mild suffering, they've got you covered. Now let's talk about the Basementeers membership, because it deserves its own paragraph. Twenty-five dollars. Once. For life. That's not a typo. For the price of a mediocre cocktail, you get 10% off forever, plus occasional 20% Friends & Family discounts. I've made worse financial decisions in the same afternoon. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and seemingly immune to the judgment you'd deserve for asking "what's the difference between hiking and walking." Basically: go. Join. Buy things. Touch grass -- they sell gear for that too.
