When we got there, the employees looked like they were having a meeting & they let us know that when there are no customers, they try on and talk about the shoes! Such a wonderful change of pace from most places where you just get lukewarm customer service and knowledge. We left with a pair of shoes, several pairs of really nice socks all for under $200. Great experience!

I recently injured my foot…read more YES I was doing jump squats, barefoot. Not good. Podiatrist recommends: *rest *orthotics Superfeet are amazing. I never knew you didn't need to spend $400 for custom orthotics. These are accessible and work! I have a pair for everything now: heels, flats and sports shoes.

When my left arch started aching after a five mile run, I knew I needed more support. My arches…read morealmost completely collapse and I overpronate. The arches in your feet are designed to collapse and provide shock absorption. This is called normal pronation. If your arches collapse so much that your feet roll inward, this is overpronation. For me, both my feet overpronate but my left foot rolls in more than the right. I also have plantar fasciitis. This is an inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thin layer of tough tissue supporting the arch of the foot. Because of my plantar fasciitis, activities like ice skating or rollerblading are very painful for me. I also prefer to run on hard, even ground - running on soft surfaces like grass or sand are much more painful for me. I wear stability shoes and they served me well for shorter distances but I need more support for the longer runs. The green Superfeet insoles gave me the extra support I needed to increase my mileage. At first, I thought they were too stiff but my feet seem to respond really well them. Because I have a demanding training schedule right now, I didn't have much time to break them in so I wore them out to dinner and to work and I was able to run a few miles the next day. I was concerned I needed more time for my feet to get accustomed to them but that wasn't the case. When I went to the orthopedic surgeon who specializes in sports medicine he told me he always tells his patients to try a pair of Superfeet before investing in expensive orthotics. I wish my podiatrist had done the same. I spent a lot of money on my custom orthotics and I ended up throwing them away.

The First time I came in I needed a box to ship a snowboard, I assumed I would have to buy one, but they looked for me but couldn't find a specific snowboard box so brought me out some ski boxes tape and scissors! Mind you I had never been here or shopped here before I couldn't believe how gracious they were! Not to mention I had a friendly dog hanging around as I was building the box! So rad! The next time I had to sell some of my gear to pay a bill and the guy working in the gear section could feel my pain and gave me a really solid deal that he really didn't have to! This place is special In Bellingham and the people who work here have to be the best spirited team in any shop around town. So that being said if you want to have a good day looking for gear or selling or buying gear by a crew who truly cares your only place to do it is here. Thanks again. Mark

Not only did I find my dream wedding dress at Sueño, but I had a wonderful time because of Myra. She was so attentive, so caring and so fun!

I can't possibly recommend them more and we will be heading up from Seattle to shop with Norma and Myra for all of my daughter's High School dances moving forward.

However every time I call to inquire about appointments, or if a certain dress is in stock, I get hung up on. I called three times today, the same woman answered and hung up on me each time. The first time I thought it was a bad connection. By the second and third time it was clear that I was purposely being disconnected. I'm not one to usually write reviews, but I found it really irksome and irritating to be hung up on when I'm just trying to buy a dress. Don't bother trying to call them for any type of customer service, help on an order or help with anything regarding there store. They will answer and hang up. I suggest just going to a different store if the way they treat you on the phone is any indication of how they will in the future. Will not be buying the dress I wanted to from here anymore because of rude staff.

The owner is very careful about what she brings in and has classes and pop-ups in her store all the time. She creates such a welcoming atmosphere, it is not uncommon to see people in there conversing with her pretty regularly. The bottom line is she is clearly working to build a community around her shop and it really shows in the relationships she builds with the artists she brings in as well as the customers who keep coming back.
