    We visited back in early March and had a fantastic experience! This is an excellent place to buy running shoes. The staff takes the time to help you find the perfect pair. They even have treadmills so you can try them out before purchasing. The salesperson who helped us (I wish I remembered his name!) was incredibly helpful. Highly recommend!

    Amazing customer service! I came into the store with my husband right before closing and all the staffs were so informative, helpful and patient with us. My husband was seeking for a comfortable and supportive pair of Hoka for work. My husband is a health care worker and his demanding job requires him to be on his feet for 8-16 hours on any given day (he often does double shifts and works two jobs). Maddie or Maddy (sorry if I am not spelling your name correctly) was absolutely wonderful. She was extremely professional and knowledgeable on the different types of shoe brands and different types of supportive insoles. She started with a scan of my husband's feet and it shows that my husbands feet is very flat and that he needs a shoe with supportive arch. Maddie and her partner who is also very professional and helpful pulled out multiple pairs of shoes for my husband to try on. They let him tried multiples brands of insoles that were comfortable and supportive based on his feet scans with the different shoes. My husband ended up ordering a pair of Hoka from this store that will be shipped to our home with Currex dynamic insole to help support his arch. I tried on the Birkenstock Arizona sandal and felt in love with the support and comfort it offered. Being pregnant right now, it's been difficult to find a pair of sandal that is cute and comfortable especially with the semi-swollen feet. Joe, the owner was so kind to take the time to show my husband some feet exercise to help with his plantar fasciitis even after store hours. Overall, we highly recommend this store to everyone. Like us, you will be walking out educated, satisfied and with a new pair of shoe that offers comfort and support like no others! Thank you again guys! :)

    10000/10 RECOMMEND. What a place! RR is more than a store. It's a community. It is a one-stop shop for all your running, walking, fitness, coaching needs! New shoes--they got it. Awesome sales/deals--they got it. Group fitness--they got it. Personal training--they got it. InBody Scan--they got it. Gait & arch analysis--they got jt. Recovery tools--they got it. Free classes--they got it. Open gym Sundays--they got it. Saturday community runs for all levels--they got it. Knowledgeable, helpful, genuinely kind staff--GOT IT BY A LANDSLIDE!! I cannot express how awesome RR is. I've bought multiple shoes for myself and my mom, recommended to many friends, and joined several Saturday runs and stretch classes. Everyone is so supportive and welcoming. I always learn something new about my running/training. Each time I leave RR, not only do I want to go back for more, but I feel elevated--physically, mentally, and emotionally. TL;DR: You have to visit RR for yourself. You won't regret it!

    Walked into the store to try on Hoka shoes, ended up discovering that Brooks are the running shoe for me! Thanks to the personalized attention and advice from Ian and Jude, I received a computerized analysis test of my feet, got fitted with a pair of super supportive inserts, and tried out five pairs of shoes before finding the perfect pair.

    Brooks!

    Do you offer group exercise classes?

    Hey LL, we do not offer group classes anymore. However we do have our group community runs. We will have our first run since moving to our new location this Saturday at Mt SAC followed by a raffle at our shop.

    Is the Yelp discount still active as 20%, because I put in the code and it only gave me 2%?

    Hey Rachel! Thanks for asking. It’s still active but it’s 10% off. Did you try it on our website or in store with one of our associates? You can use either code: YELPreview…

I'm glad that they have an Amazon return booth, which is very convenient, efficient, and trustworthy because Amazon refunds me immediately. The Kohl's staff will give you the return tracking proof with the coupon to shop at Kohl's. Their stuff is usually not cheap, or they charge a higher price without sales, promotion deals, or coupons. However, if you have the Kohl's app with Kohl's Cash and coupons, then you can get a very good deal. Another tip is that I have the Capital One Kohl's Rewards Visa card, and I always use this card to pump gas. You get 7.5% in Kohl's rewards on Kohl's purchases every day, and 3% in Kohl's rewards on gas, 2% in Kohl's rewards at grocery stores, and 1% for other purchases. My daughters bought 2 pairs of jeans today, and guess how much I paid? I only paid less than $7 because I have my Kohl's Cash for $25 in the app, and I also have an instant $10 off when you spend $25 or more in-store & online coupon (expires on June 29, 2025). It's such a steal. My daughters could not believe it. Also, we like to shop at the Sephora inside the Kohl's. They now have the self-checkout, which is another plus for shoppers like me. I like self-checkout and applying coupons and Kohl's cash myself. The layout is so much better than before.

After hearing nothing, I called around 8:00 PM to check on the status. I was then told that the item had been sold earlier that morning and that my order would need to be canceled. What is especially frustrating is that my order was placed before the item was sold to someone else. Had the store processed online orders when they were received, the hat should have been set aside for my order instead of being sold to a later customer. Because my order was not handled in a timely manner, someone else was able to purchase the item that I had already paid for. On top of that, nobody contacted me all day to let me know there was an issue with my order. If the item was unavailable, I should have been notified immediately instead of having to call myself nearly 10 hours later. Had I been informed earlier, I could have made other arrangements. Unfortunately, this was a birthday gift for my dad, and now I am left scrambling to find a replacement at the last minute. I understand inventory mistakes can happen, but the lack of communication and failure to prioritize or properly process online orders was extremely disappointing.
