And even better, they're a local, family-owned business, if you're one who likes to venture outside large corporations!

They scan your feet to find the exact measurements, height of arches, width, etc and then use that info and their expertise to find the right shoe for you. You can test the shoes right outside the store before you buy. It may be a little bit pricey compared to department stores but the quality of the shoe and the quality of the employee interaction combined with the attention to detail is really worth it. The owner of this location is so friendly and knowledgeable, along with the employee who helped me out. I can not recommend this franchise and this Columbia location enough. We are lucky to have them in Columbia to support all the runners here!

I bought a pair of Nike running shoes after trying them on inside the store, went home, wore them immediately and found them to be uncomfortably narrow. I took them back for an exchange and was told no chance. No one mentioned any of this when purchasing the shoes.

I am done giving Dicks my business and will go far out of my way to find small sporting stores to shop. Good riddance.
