At Fleet Feet, we are more than just a shoe store. We are a resource for all your running, walking, fitness, and working needs. When visiting our shop, we will take you through our fit process. This involves scanning your feet with the 3D imager, watching you walk or run a few steps, and finally, bring you several pairs of shoes to try that are appropriate for your feet.
Tips for Selecting the Proper Footwear for any Athletic Activity:
1. You can't judge a shoe by its color! There are lots of different types of shoes, and making the wrong choice can contribute to numerous problems, therefore making your running and walking less enjoyable. Every door needs a different key, and it is important to select a shoe appropriate for yourself, not based on color or stylistic attributes. We are here to help - that's what we do!
2. Be willing to share information. What do you need shoes for? Have you just started a new fitness program? Are they for running? Walking? Working? Do you have any injuries or nagging pains that you are experiencing? What shoes and styles have worked well for you in the past?
3. Running shoes should allow for some space in the front end of the shoe. We will double check for appropriate length and width to ensure that you get a healthy fit.
4. Check the wear of your shoes regularly. Shoes do not last forever! Be aware that shoes will break down over time, and not offer the same support and cushioning as they did on Day 1. We recommend replacing shoes every 300-400 miles. Some people may get more miles, and some may get less.
Regardless of your level of fitness, smart and healthy choices in footwear can make a significant difference in the enjoyment of your fitness activities and everyday life. Proper fitting footwear can mean the difference between pain and discomfort and injury-free activities. Doctors and podiatrists play a significant role in diagnosing and aiding pain and discomfort; however, simply choosing the right footwear is a key step toward comfort.
