  • I have put on some weight and need to get in shape but my old beloved tennis shoes are shot :( So I began my search for a new pair of tennis shoes that I am comfortable in and dont hurt my feet. ( I am not a runner but I been able to walk 3 miles but my feet swell up real bad at 1 and 1/2 mile. Thru recommendations I brought an expensive pair of new balance, worst decision ever -my feet sooo sore and I stopped working out because I was frustated and didnt want the pain. Talked to a friend who said keep at it --find another shoe --went to lots of average joe places couldnt find anything that felt comfortable. Finally went on line for running shoe stores and found Cadence among others and one day I was in the area and thought i would swing in -got there and thought crap this is a small runner store and I am not a runner -was gonna just turn around but Lindsey came up to me right away and began asking quesions so I thought ok have an open mind she is sweet be nice LOL -I explained about my last pair of shoes, she didnt put the brand dowm and asked if i heard about a new brand called altra (I think ) and i said no so she had me try them on -definetly felt way different than anything else I felt before, kind of weird and she explained why they felt weird and I wasnt quite sold on the weird feel-then told her about my problem spots that I experience when walking and she brought out several different shoes without caring about "brand" (although I did mention I like saucony and was told to get brooks-people are very loyal to their "brands" of shoes they use -LOL) I had the brooks all picked out but wanted to try one more pair I just wasnt that confident about actually pulling the plug and buying them and then be frustated again and I explained why I was not quite confident in that shoe and Lindsey had another pair for me -Winner! I feel in love with them and was excited and said Sold but they dont look like workout shoes I told her they look like my son's cool shoes he wears -not that i care about style but was suprised it was not the basis look of a "running shoe" it looks more like an everyday tennis shoe. Now I WANT to put these shoes on everyday and WANT to go walking again and that was huge for me! Thanks for making me feel comfortable Lindsey and not awakard being in "runner store with my fat butt" !!! It made a huge difference in my comfort level. Also want to mention three other things I really liked-1 she actually told me to go walk around outside the store -What???? just walk outside with these shoes on outside before I buy and it is ok lol I really liked that because I was able to feel what it was like walking around on the pavement and walk farther to get a real feel, 2 I still may come back for brooks to switch up shoes for different walking trails and she kindly gave me the information so I could come back (some places are like no we will keep it on file and tell you when you come back) so I really liked that and 3 she told me about their Tuesday group run and I was like you know I dont run and she was like no problem then walk which made me feel included and again not stupid for not being a runner :) So glad I took a chance on this "runner store" -no matter what activity you do or just need comfortable shoes it is worth it especially as I am getting older I need the comfort -:)
