What Should you expect when you come into Elite Runners & Walkers?

Our experienced staff will help you by providing individual attention throughout the running or walking shoe fit process. 

Please budget at least 20-30 minutes to be properly fitted with running/walking shoes, so if you are coming late in the day, please try to arrive at least 1/2 hour prior to our closing time.    Bringing a pair of your old shoes that you wear while you run/walk will help us out tremendously in fitting you for a new pair of running shoes.  Also come dressed to run or walk as we will ask that your run or walk to test the shoes.

Our Fit Process:

1. Shoe Wear Analysis - we take a look at your old running shoes, if you brought them, and look at how they broke down
2. Foot measurement - we measure overall lenght, arch length, width, and look at the curvature of the foot.
3. Unsupported gait analysis - watch you walk with no shoes on
4. Selection of shoe choices - we base this on your measurements, gait analysis, and personal experiences that you tell us about
5. Gait analysis of each shoe - We will have you run or walk in the running shoes and watch you on the treadmill, outside, or around the store
6. Up to you to choose!  We help you along the way giving you advice but ultimately you choose whichever running shoe feels the most comfortable!
