Koen BlanquartFebruary 19, 2013The best place I have been to buy me a new pair of running shoes. Sales people take time to understand needs, test how you run and advise as much as they can. Take some time.Upvote9Downvote
Gianna De FilippisMarch 24, 2016This is THE place if you're looking for running shoes. They have a treadmill in store which they use to analyze your running style. You can then try out all of the pairs on the treadmill.
