John was fantastic, he made extra efforts to find my just expired account and found out exactly what my last purchase was so I could get the exact same shoe and size. He also got me a great price and answered my numerous questions with helpful answers.I called earlier in the week and was told my account was closed and there was no record of what I bought before. So I was very impressed with John finding the info (and discount) that he did! Because of him I will be going back to Road Runner and will make sure to get John!And I loved the shoes - Brooks.
Welcomed by a knowledgeable guy who understand what kind of shoe i want. Helped in doing custom insoles and finding me the right shoe for long running. If u are in market for good running shoe, definitely worth buying from them
Ive been coming here for YEARS! After not being back for awhile, Matias greeted my boyfriend and me with open Road Runner arms per usual. Wed been striking out everywhere else and we left him with two pairs of shoes and eyes set on many more for near future purchases 😉! Thank you all. So good to be back 💜
Had a new pair of shoes that I purchased a couple of weeks ago. After wearing them, they just didn’t feel right. So I went back to the store and we decided a 1/2 size would be a better fit. It was an easy process even though I had worn the shoes before. I’m now a member. Keep up the great customer service.
This was our first time visiting the store, and we had a great experience. Angel was really helpful and knowledgeable. He was friendly and patient, and he took the time to help us find the perfect running shoes. We will definitely be returning!
Best customer service. Road Runner Sports is always my go-to for my family’s running shoes, but my recent experience was fantastic. I went in for 1 pair of custom insoles, and ended up walking out with 2. And a new pair of sneakers!I took my son in for new custom insoles and Angel, specifically, went above and beyond, taking the time to find out what my son needed, educate me on his foot scan results, and walk me through the different custom insole options. His customer service was so spot on that I decided to ask him for help with new running shoes for me. He was knowledgeable and helpful; explaining the distinctions between different sneakers and made a recommendation based on my needs.It was a great experience!
My wife and I stopped in for a pair of new running shoes each. We were greeted by a very friendly gentleman that did an analysis of our arches and then molded the insoles via the super high tech machinery.Ultimately we were handed off to Angel for shoe selection. The two gentlemen referred us each to a couple of different pairs of shoes. We were not convinced these were the shoes we wanted so we each tried on a few other pairs.In the end, I walked out in the original pair suggested by the Roadrunner team (and also another pair). My wife also left happy with a new pair; a brand she’d never bought before.New shoes are great, but when they’re the right shoes for your feet- it makes a huge difference.What a great experience. Thanks to the staff for their customer service, kindness and patience!We’ll be back for sure!
The service was great. I bought hiking boots and realized that within a short time of wearing them, I needed a larger size. The transaction went smoothly.
I got there right after they opened for the day and It was busy. Angel was the person who worked with me. He set my expectations because he was helping a lot of customers at once. Each time he checked in or got me help he was clear about next steps and when he would be back. He followed up, never forgot about me, and was patient. I got fitted for inserts and got a pair of sneakers that work for me. It was a good solid experience.Wish they had more clothing and Altra shoe options.
The staff seems pretty knowledgeable. It’s a great store if you’re serious about running and that perfect fit. They typically scan your feet and walk which is fine but it just seems like a process that is quickly pushed through. They also push a lot of “extra” stuff on you including memberships etc…
I ♥️ Road Runner Sports. A big shout out and Thank You to Cole. Customer Service is everything and Road Runner Sports has it all. Aside from their large selection of shoes, I highly recommend them for their knowledge and ability to identify the appropriate shoe for your running needs.
Wow this was the most amazing shoe experience I’ve ever had. They had every shoe in store to try on that I was curious about (besides the Nike Ultraboost 19!) and amazing technology in store to find out more more about your feet! I discovered I was a size larger than what i’vebeen wearing for years. John was amazing help, friendly and guided me to find exactly what me and my feet needed. He is a plethora of knowledge! I ended up buying the Adidas Solar boost but my next pair will be the Brooks Hyperion Tempo. Highly recommend this location and Road Runner Sports overall!
Great service and easy help to find the shoes that worked right for me. I had a pair of shoes I bought that were too small and the process to exchange was quick and great help.
Matias was excellent! He provided great service, knows the shoes well and helped my wife and me find a good pair of shoes. It was a great experience and Im looking forward to the 90 day trial as well.
Exceptional customer service. I loved the shoe fit experience and custom insoles process. Walked away with the most comfortable running shoes I’ve ever owned.
Customized insoles. Awesome assessment of your feet, how you run, and hence, what’s needed to be compensates. Great experience
Angel was amazing. He was very thorough and helpful fitting my son with new running shoes and insoles. Great experience. We will definitely be back for more running shoes and other needs.
Always helpful best recommendations tailored to my needs and always answers all my questions. Always a great buy from here in San Carlos
Pros: good shoe variety and somewhat knowledgeable salespeople.Cons: very confusing “membership” model, points, pricing, cash back, trial membership. Plus I came home and the same shoes I bought in the store were $20 cheaper on roadrunner’s own website. Why?!
I have been to Road Runners several times. Every time I am so impressed with the knowledge of the staff. They really understand how feet work in athletic settings - particularly running. The patient staff has helped me try on countless shoes to get just the right fit. I think the experience of being in store and trying on running shoes is the BEST way to go.
I drove from San Francisco to this store just to get some real running shoes and this place exceeded all expectations. Noel the salesperson helping me was awesome jus very knowledgeable in what he does, the guy is a marathon runner so he knows his stuff. Thanks Noel!!!
Great experience. The team at Road Runner Sports were patient and professional. We are very pleased with the running shoes we purchased.
Incredibly helpful and friendly staff. I was helped by Alisa who was super attentive yet not overbearing. She was quick to help yet knew when to sit back and let me feel out each shoe at my own pace. Overall, great experience.
Our salesman, Chris, was cheerful, professional and knowledgeable. He did a fantastic job identifying a suitable pair of running shoes for my daughter.
Absolutely love going to this store. They are helpful whether you’re buying something or not. They consult you on your gate, have excellent digital tools to evaluate your feet/stance, and educate you on differing shoe types which are best for your unique feet. I have never had a bad experience and always walk away feeling like I learned something new. Everyone is super kind and they are quite accommodating (always running back and forth to flex as you try things on). I can’t think of a lot of businesses which give you the level of service that they do.
Joel was very efficient, helpful and precise with his recommendations. He took my 3D scan and walk video and had the results up in minutes. I was blown away with the process. Every runner (especially beginners) should give this store a try.We bought running shoes with custom insoles and women’s apparel. The clothing quality and options felt better than any other retail stores. Loved the buying experience!
The staff is super helpful & willing to take as much time as you need to find the right shoes for you. Great mix of tech & personal interaction to get what you need.
Best selection for runners. Patient and knowledgeable staff. Really helped my son choose shoes for cross-country.
The specific person I want to appreciate is “Angle”. He was such a patient person in the entire experience. These kind of people make orgs great to work with
The employees were knowledgable and friendly. The store was clean, well organized and stocked with all the necessities. I will continue to shop here for all my running/fitness needs.
Chris was fabulous when helping me select new running shoes. He took the time to explain all the different types of shoes and which ones would best support my feet. I love my new shoes and will definitely be going back when needed. I Recommend!
Our experience with the store especially Matias is next to nothing. Matias provided an excellent service answering all questions we had with ease and knowledge. I will definitely recommend this place. It’s 5 stars all the way.
Excellent, knowledgeable runners assisted with my purchase. They used their running experience to recommend the best shoes. Few other stores provide this level of expert service
Always very helpful staff. Welcoming and willing to answer all question. Excellent customer service.
We were quickly greeting by the store manager, his name escapes me. He was great helping my wife finally find a pair of shoes after more than a month of searching. Great experience and will certainly return,.
15 minutes to get the right pair of shoes. I explained to Cole the type of shoe I was looking for, he asked some questions, and used the analysis tools for running and insoles. He picked 3 shoes and the first one was the right one. Having knowledgeable staff makes the shopping experience an efficient and enjoyable one. I will come back for my next pair.
The young woman who waited on me was great!! Very helpful and patient!
Excellent service. Love that you can make a fitting appointment. Note that it is only running and hiking. Go to a soccer store if you want soccer shoes!
Incredible customer service! I highly recommend this store for your walking shoe needs, especially if you are having any foot problems. Attentive, personalized service.
Joey was a great associate. That man is going places!
Our counselor Mathias was extremely helpful and used his formidable array of technology to give my daughter the best fitting shoes possible.
Chris was amazing! His customer service was incredible. He assessed my needs, used his technology to dig deeper into the issue and provided me with multiple options and stayed with me the whole time explaining all of the shoe options, benefits, differences, etc. I highly recommend Chris! Roadrunner should model their customer service after Chris’ customer engagement!
Awesome service all around, very knowledgeable, and great advice and suggestions to the running/walking shoes I needed for my problem feet. Ended up buying 2 pairs of shoes to switch out for my activities plus a pair of custom insoles that are supposed to last 1000 miles! Very happy with purchases & friendly salespeople and would definitely return for my future needs.
Love shopping at this store. Very knowledgeable staff. They listen and figure out the best shoes for your need. I was recommended here and it’s been three years and I refer my running friends here they all love it.
As soon as walking in the staff was welcoming & very knowledgeable of all products in store. Their state of the art 3-d foot scanner is truly a game changer identifying my proper size shoe. Thank you & keep it up San Carlos RRS.
Amazing experience! Chris was super helpful and patient.It was very cool to see the analyses they use to help understand which shoes will work for you. Highly recommend and will definitely return.
I really like this store especially the one that is in San Carlos California, everyone on that store are so polite and helpful with what I need, thank you so much
Great customer service by Cole. He helped me pick out the shoes I needed and helped me with custom orthotics. No fuss, no muss.Thanks Cole!
As a triathlete with a scoliosis that affects my feet they help me making sure I get the appropriate shoes and inserts. Worked great and no pain in my knees or ankle. Both my partner (long distance runner) and my daughter went and great experience too.
I’ve never had a bad experience shopping here and their return/exchange policy is one of the best in the business. They’ve always been more than helpful and even when just past my 90 day exchange period they still worked with me to get the right pair of shoes.
The process from start to finish in receiving my shoes was the easiest! I ordered my Brooks online at Road Runner, got an immediate response that the store would get back to me when open, received the response that the order was ready, drove to store, called them when outside, and the salesperson brought them to my car immediately. What better service could one ask for?!!Thanks for making the purchase so easy and contactless! Road Runner really has the best selection and customer service!
Great service and customer satisfaction. Will definitely return.
Great service and attention to detail. Have been there twice now and every time a great experience . Highly recommend if getting into running or need the right pair of shoes for running
It was quick and easy. Christopher was super helpful and I was impressed by how clean the store was. Will definitely return!!
Luv my new kicks great selection, awesome staff overall hella experience 💫
Sales person was very nice and helpful and also was knowledgeable about their choices of products. I had a great experience purchasing my running shoes.
We came in without an appointment, things were carefully done as they should be taking COVID precautions.Our sales person was beyond helpful with our specific needs. Husband and I both walked out with great fitting shoes and inserts.I have been coming here for more than ten years. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.
The salesperson was very nice and patient when he was helping us.
Chris was a huge help and I am very happy. Also happy to hear you changed your membership sign up policy. Haven’t been to you before but you guys are great!
Really cool foot imaging solutions and very personalized service. I found the best running shoes for me, and I had a ton of choices, with good guidance when I had questions.
Chris has excellent customer service. He is very attentive with his customers needs. I bought 2 pairs of shoe. I sure will be back again.
Staff was friendly, great selection of shoes, and a generous return policy for members.
I am so happy with my new pair of Hoka One One shoes. Extremely comfortable shoes especially with the insoles from Road Runner Sports. Kwazar took me through the shoe measurement process every step of the way. He explained each step: find your shoe preference, find your shoes size, whats your arch like. Couldnt be happier with the new shoes, already feel the difference.
Great service from a knowledgeable representative.
Already knew what I wanted. Chris was great. Very helpful. Love shopping there!
Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Dealt with a difficult pre-tween with ease.
Thank you so much to Alyssa for helping me with finding a pair of shoes that fits my style of running/walking. Theres a lot to select from, but I walked out with a pair that Im happy with. Couldnt have asked for a better experience.
Chris was amazing! I highly recommend this store as the employees really want to help you find the best shoe for your running experience without trying to sell you the most expensive one.
Always very helpfulKyler was very helpful with my problems that I am having.
The team at the store is very helpful and took the time to get me the right shoes.
Only shoe store where they know what they are talking about. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly.
The only place to buy running shoes! Great selection, spacious store, and for anyone that wants foot beds they have great custom options.
John is the absolute best Customer Service Rep. Ive ever had help me. John is patient, helpful, very knowledgeable, great bedside manner, humorous and knows what he is doing!Great experience, thank you soo much.
They have a nice sales process where they scan your feet, analyze your joint angles under load, and ask a bunch of questions about your running. I like the shoes we landed on 👍
Great experience at Road Runner Sports! Ask for Chris! He really knows what hes doing and is very patient.
Alyssa helped me find the perfect shoe to fight chronic foot pain. She was patient and informative. It was a great experience.
Really good service! Never had this type of personal experience buying shoes before! Highly recommended!!!
I came in almost at closing time on 3/6. Chris, the lead helped me. I purchased a pair of gray Hoka Bondi 7’s in October 2020. I never once wore them. Then came a new color of that shoe that I really liked. Chris had to look up my purchase because I lost my receipt and found that I had purchased the shoes in October 2020, which was way over the 90 day limit to return or exchange. Chris told me that he would have to consult the manager to see if he would make an exception. A couple of minutes later Chris came back and told me that “since you are a member we will make an exception in your case. Go ahead and talk to one of the associates and he’ll help you get the replacement shoe”. Although it was store policy to not exchange or return after 90 days I appreciate their going the extra mile & going out of their way to do it. THIS folks is customer service! This is why I will keep coming back to this store even though I live across the bay. Thank you!
Amazing service even as just a walk in. Great service and recommendations.
Angel is one of the best salesman Ive ever dealt with ever at any store this kid at road runner shoes knows his stuff.
This was my first time at Road Runner Sports and I have to say the store was awesome and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be doing business with them again.
My wifes shoes were not a perfect fit. Thanks to the VIP program, we could exchange them, including new insoles, without any issues.Thanks guys for the great service!
If youre serious about running, this is a great place to get your gear. They have scanners that size your feet and custom soles made on the spot.
I went in today to the San Carlos location to get some new running shoes and Joey assisted me. Joey was so helpful, patient and polite during the process. He brought out a variety of options for me to try out until we found a pair I was happy with! Thanks Joey!
I love the customer service, especially Cole. He really knows his stuff, always very informative. Their return policy is awesome In the VIP program. Ive bought Hokas from their and been back 4 times since then and purchased more Hokas. I will definitely be back again and again.
Great store. Always really knowledgeable, friendly staff with great advice and recommendations.
Great staff and helpful. I’ve been coming here for years and have never been disappointed.
Even with VIP option, its hard to buy comfortable shoes still. Individually molded insoles work with some models. Overall experience is good, personnel is friendly and professional.
Kyler was super awesome in helping me find the right shoe! He worked with me to get me what I wanted. This place has great options and I recommend becoming a member for the great benefits. Thanks Kyler!
I always receive helpful advice when I come here. The staff is knowledgeable and considerate.
This post is for garage sale event. Great customer service, wide range selection, great prices.
Great, prompt service. Love the treadmills in the store to really try out the shoes.
Great, easy experience getting the right shoe for running.
Chris helped me through 4 pairs of shoes, gave me super useful info on running and shoe types, and did it all in a super friendly and professional way. Awesome experience overall, and such a relief from the uncertain experience of online shopping. Will visit again.
Joey provided a great service, patience and recommended so good alternatives for shoes.
Chris I believe his name was fantastic!
Knowledgeable and friendly service. Incredible shopping experience.
Do it my job 5 stars agree!
Love that 90 days exchange/swap policy. You can’t beat that.
