Fit Finder Process | The Running Well Store
Our Fit Finder Process
The Fit Finder Process at The Running Well Store is how we make sure every customer finds a shoe that truly feels right from the very first step. It’s not just a quick fitting or a sales interaction — it’s a complete, personalized experience built around you. Our team takes time to understand how you move, the activities you enjoy, and what you need your shoes to help you achieve.
We look beyond size and style to learn about your stride, your balance, and the way your feet handle daily movement. Whether you’re a runner chasing your next PR, a walker staying active, or someone who’s on their feet all day for work, our Fit Finder Process ensures you leave with footwear that supports your body and your goals. It’s a conversation, an assessment, and a partnership focused on finding your most comfortable and confident stride.
How the Process Works
First, we’ll talk about your daily activities and how your current shoes feel. Next, we’ll run a quick gait analysis to see how your feet move when walking or running. Then, we’ll look at your arch height and posture. After that, our Fit Gurus suggest options designed to support you best.
During the Fit Finder Process, we:
-
Discuss your activity level and any pain points
-
Record a short gait video for analysis
-
Try several shoes to compare support and feel
-
Recommend the best options for your goals
Each step is simple, quick, and focused on your comfort. Because the right fit makes every stride easier.
Why the Fit Finder Process Matters
Wearing the right shoes can prevent injuries, improve balance, and reduce fatigue. Small details — like arch shape and stride — can completely change how your body feels after a run or long day. That’s why our fit finder process is built around your individual needs rather than trends.
