I decided not to review right away because I wanted to give the new shoes and socks a few trial runs before.
I came into RFYL at the end of May/early June and bought a pair of running shoes. Since I had never been here before, they had me fitted. They watched how I run/walk and asked about how often/far I ran. The girl who helped us was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I ultimately decided to stick with my usual shoe, but in the more recent release. I was suggested to purchase in a larger size than normal to account for swelling (especially during the summer). Admittedly I was hesitant which is why I delayed my review. However, I could not be happier with my decision to follow her suggestion!
Also, the Feetures socks are a godsend for new shoes (and long runs)!! No more socks sliding off my feet in the middle of a run or seams rubbing against my toes! There was even a sale going on for them (buy 3 pairs get 1 free). I was so happy with my socks that I bought 4 pairs for my father, who is also an avid runner and he loves them too!!
Finally, this store is definitely about runners! They even have a board with upcoming races and running groups. Not only that, but they run really great specials each month. Plus after you spend $250, they offer you in store credit on anything! Will definitely continue going here and sending my friends!
