Everyone was incredibly kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. It's rare to find customer service like this. They genuinely care about making sure you leave with the right fit.

If I was in that mood I may have searched through them, next time. I was there to look at UGG slippers $120 and I did and compared them to the less glamorous but also less expensive Bearpaw slippers $70. In the end I decided the Bearpaw were just as comfy and fancy enough for me. The bathrooms require you to find a person - fyi. If you join the club you get 15% off! If they send me a coupon I will come back to find a certain shoe or sift through the clearance racks;)

I bring all my shoes (new and old) to Orinda Shoe Repair for routine maintenance and repair - I…read morehighly recommend them as they do a great job and are reasonably priced. They have extended and revitalized the life of older, expensive Italian boots and shoes that I 're-discovered' in the back of my closet, making them appear brand new, current and remain super comfortable.

Overall, forget buying disposable fast fashion by extending the life of your quality shoe investment for years and decades to come. It's the sustainable thing to do!

The right shoes--and the right guidance--can make all the difference…read more I returned to Road Runner Sports after my Nike Pegasus 42s started feeling unstable, almost like my ankle was rolling and the cushioning was off. Thanks to the VIP program, I was able to exchange them within the 90-day return window and work with Travis again. Travis is knowledgeable, patient, and great at explaining how each shoe moves and supports your foot. Based on his demonstration, I switched to the Brooks Glycerin Flex, and I'm glad I did. During a run, I stepped into a hole in the pavement, and I truly believe the stability of the shoe helped keep the injury from being much worse. Road Runner Sports is an excellent resource for runners and athletes because the staff considers your stride, foot strike, comfort, and activity level--not just the shoe's appearance. The prices are comparable to other retailers, but here you also receive expert guidance and the added protection of the VIP return policy. Congratulations to Travis and his future bride on their upcoming Halloween wedding! I definitely recommend this location.

I've always had an incredible experience here and this time it was thanks to Marcos. We came in to…read morefind shoes for my mother-in-law, and the level of care he provided was truly exceptional! Marcos was incredibly patient and genuinely caring throughout the entire process. He noticed my mother-in-law was wearing a 7.5 wide and although it was a good fit, suggested an 8 wide instead to better accommodate her feet. And it was! She felt more balance and less tension and it showed on the treadmill when she was able to increase her MPH. He didn't just stop at the size, though; he performed a full walking analysis and constantly monitored her stride to ensure the fit was perfect. Even though the store was incredibly busy, Marcos never rushed us. He must have gone back and forth to the stockroom at least a dozen times to pull different options, knowing full well we were only there to buy one pair. He personally swapped her insoles into every single shoe she tried on--and we probably went through about 8 different pairs in various sizes. His expertise really shines when he talks about the technical side of things, like toe-gap and overall comfortability. On top of the technical fit, he has a great eye for aesthetics; he picked out colors that perfectly matched my mother-in-law's personal style. It's rare to find this kind of dedicated service. We will definitely be coming back to see Marcos when it's time to get shoes for my wife!

if I could give this place no stars I would. I walked into this store with my mom and my nephews…read more this this was our first time my mom really wanted to try on shoes and hopefully buy some that she'll enjoy for work. when entered NO ONE greeted us and when we sat in the store for roughly 15 minutes we were not even glanced at or even asked if we needed help when holding a shoe. I waited to find a help member and no one was around. A When we were about to leave but waited a couple more seconds to see if we'll get help and new customers walked in and was helped right away. I am really DISAPPOINTED with this customer servic. As someone who worked in retail, especially shoes I have NEVER been in such a horrible environment.

Seeing that there was already a large group trying on shoes that both of the employees were helping, I was expecting to have to wait awhile to be helped which was fine (especially since I had 4 pairs to exchange and knew that would take some time). However we were only browsing for a few minutes when Carisa, one of the store leaders, paused to welcome us in and asked if there was anything we needed. I explained the exchanges I was looking to do, and she quickly grabbed me what they had in store for me to try and similar styles for what they didn't have an exact match of. After helping me, she noticed my husband had a pair in hand and offered to grab him sizes as well. She gave us advice on sizing and checked in multiple times while still assisting the other employee with the large group. While my Husband was trying on his shoes, Carisa rang up my exchanges (which included ordering multiple pairs that were only online) and made everything so seamless. She was so kind and helpful, and we left with 2 more pairs than we were expecting to. We will definitely be returning to this location!

I bought Jordan 4 black canvas in July and I found out they actually cost $210 (retail cost) alone…read more At the time the seller told me he would sell the shoes for $450 but they charged me around $568 however the receipt doesn't tell me what the extra charge was. Didn't say if it was taxes or shipping. They told me the estimated time for arrival was supposed to be a week but even after two weeks nothing arrived. We texted the seller as well as called and he never picked up until we tried from a different phone number in which the seller told us that it was ready for pick up, but by this point we just wanted a refund. We sent a claim to the bank and when the bank tried to investigate the store told the bank that the shoes were picked up in store during purchase but that's not true. So we called the seller again and he said that the shoes were in store and sitting in the stock room with no name or information of the client. I know that in Macys if the merchandise is not picked up within two months that the employees can keep whatever was bought. That might be the case here as well. This is after two months as well. I decided I'll just go to the store and pick them up despite the fact that the store is 3 hours away. When I asked why there was extra chargers they told me it was due to taxes but the taxes said 0 then they back tracked saying it was shipping except they never did ship it or refund the shipping cost.They never were able to explain why the extra charges were made. The manager ended up calling the original seller who apparently had told me that the shipping cost was because they shipped the shoes from their LA store to the Walnut Creek store and that it would cost me more which is ridiculous considering the library doesn't even charge for that. They didn't tell me that I would be charged for between stores. The cherry on top is that the shoes are creased, and I was charged an extra $118. An extra 118??? Despite being so inconvenienced by the situation?? Don't buy from them, they are poorly managed, very unprofessional and a scam. This has caused me so much stress, and it was supposed to be a happy occasion as it is a gift for my son. This has also caused him stress since he knows about the whole situation.

Really love the store layout, not sterile, has personality to it, the variety of sports items, apparel, shoes, and was even pleasant enough with the air-conditioning and fans on. Can't give it 5 Stars, though. Would love to, but this place has more items missing price tags than Grocery Outlet! Mentioned it to a couple of the employees, one replied there are "some items" where that is true ( more than some ), and another assured me that the items I was referring to had price tags on them. Yeah, No! At least in the energy bars / nutrition / protein powders / hydration packs, etc. department. Yes, there are some stickers designating price / bar and price / box, which IS helpful, then...a row or two or three of suddenly no price tags. And look at it this way, if you're going to put in the effort to label containers with expiration dates like "5/27" ( which seems like the store did in the spirit of good customer service ), then you CAN actually make the effort to clarify to the customer what item is what price. ( Why does this seem like basic Common Sense here, and if managers are not on top of this problem, then that is on them. I spent too much time walking the aisles, trying to find pricing, asking for help to scan items, discovering more things without pricing. Fix that problem ASAP. Or install a scanner in parts of the store for customers to utilize on their own. ) Overall, check out the store. Here's another reason why: I observed (2) separate employees, one younger 20's male in the running shoe department, one latter 20's female in the ski boot department, personally attending to customers, giving their input on products, doing some old-school sales and persuasion. VERY GOOD to see that. Both had product knowledge, were hands-on, was refreshing to see. Thumbs up!
