1. Listen to you
We want you to tell us everything from opinions of your previous shoes to small, nagging injuries to doctor diagnosed or corrected injuries. All of this information will help us to hand select the best shoes for you.
2. Watch the walk
It's all about the walk, so make sure to come in prepared to walk the blue carpet. Our goal is to keep your foot strike through the center. Some people do this naturally, others need the help of built-in support. By getting low to the ground and observing the mechanics of your walk, we can determine the best amount of support for you.
3. Pull a shoe, then maybe a few more
With the information we have gathered from your walk and the information you have told us, we will pull a couple shoes for you to try. This is the perfect time to take them for a spin around the store and to voice your opinions about how the shoe feels on your foot. We will listen to these opinions and make further recommendations until we have found the shoe that is not only perfect for your walk, but is also the perfect feel for you.
4. Further recommendations
Remember those injuries you told us about? Well we have various products in the store which can help to prevent and recover from injuries. We will also have tips on free relief techniques which can be done at home to aid in injury relief.
