Personalized Shoe Fitting Process

• Assessing Your Needs:

  • We start by understanding your specific activities, whether it's running, walking, gym workouts, or work. This helps us identify the right type of shoe for your unique requirements.

• Injury History:

  • We discuss any previous injuries or ongoing issues you might have experienced. This allows us to recommend shoes that provide the necessary support and prevent further injuries.

• Reviewing Past Shoes:

  • We encourage you to bring in any old pairs of shoes that didn’t work for you. By analyzing these, we can better understand what went wrong and what to avoid in your next pair.

• Fitness Goals:

  • We take into account your fitness goals, whether you're training for a marathon, looking to increase your walking distance, or aiming to enhance your gym performance. This ensures we recommend shoes that align with your aspirations and support your journey.

• • Gait Analysis:

    • We begin by assessing your natural walking or running gait. This can be done either in your sock feet or by providing you with a pair of neutral shoes to try on.

  • Video Analysis: (Optional if needed)

    • Utilizing advanced video analysis tools, we capture your movements and analyze how your feet land and roll with each step. We can meticulously review the footage frame by frame to detect even the smallest details.

  • Assessing Foot Mechanics:

    • Through this detailed analysis, we determine whether your feet roll outward (supinate), roll inward (pronate), or remain neutral. This insight is crucial in identifying the type of shoes that will provide the necessary stability, cushioning, or support.

  This thorough evaluation helps us recommend footwear that optimally supports your natural gait, enhancing comfort and performance while reducing the risk of injury.

• Tailored Shoe Selection:

  • Based on the results of your gait analysis and your individual preferences, our team will present you with several different shoes that match your foot type and activity needs.

• Trying On Options:

  • We encourage you to take your time during this crucial step. Try on each pair and assess how they feel on your feet. Consider the fit, comfort, and support each shoe provides.

• Test Runs:

  • Take each pair for a test run, either on our in-store treadmill or down the sidewalk. This helps you experience how the shoes perform in a real-world setting.

• Comparison:

  • Compare each pair carefully. Notice the differences in fit, cushioning, and stability. This thorough comparison ensures you find the perfect match.

Our goal is for you to leave our store loving your new shoes, feeling confident and comfortable in them. We are committed to finding the best fit for your unique needs.

• Guided Recommendations:

  • Our experienced team will offer expert suggestions based on your specific needs and preferences.

• Empowered Decision-Making:

  • While we provide guidance and recommendations, the final choice is entirely yours. We encourage you to consider our advice, but ultimately, you have the freedom to select the shoes that feel best for you.

This approach ensures that you are fully informed and confident in your decision, resulting in a personalized and satisfying footwear experience.
