I am not a runner, more of a walker and weight training kind of girl. there were people in there of all different ages and exercise abilities so it's not just a store for runners. Jessica analyzed my walk, asked about my exercise activities and what I wanted in a shoe. She brought out 5 different pairs and discussed the pros/cons of each pair based on my needs. Found the perfect pair - a brand (Hoka) I'd never even heard of before my chiropractor suggested it. You can even wear your shoes for 30 days and bring them back to exchange for a different pair if they don't work out. That's customer service! Don't waste money shopping around for shoes that may or may not fit properly, go see the experts and get the right fit for your needs. Your feet will thank you!

The team here is always friendly and is very helpful when looking for items and if they don't have it they work hard to find it or something very similar. They have a large variety of LSU items to choose from. T-shirts, polos, hats, visors, stickers, magnets...they have it all. They do have Saints gear for those that love Black & Gold too! They always have something on sale too. Whether it's on sale or at regular price it's always a great value and worth supporting locally owned businesses!

After discussing my issues with them and trying on a couple pairs of shoes, it turns out my previous shoes were too small. Strange thing considering my age, but at some point my feel got bigger by a couple sizes. Problem solved. Once we figured out the size issue, we discussed my running/walking and then the real fun began! I tried on 5 or 6 pairs of shoes and was able to find some that feel great. I have a number of miles on them and am very satisfied. They even gave me a free shirt to go with my new shoes. Knowing what I know now, I could buy my next pair of shoes online but I will buy from Varsity again to support the great service I have gotten.
