Y'know, maybe it's because I'm clearly not a runner. Or maybe it's because I was just buying a pair of socks. Or maybe it's all in my head. But I feel like the service I got from Village Runner was just OK.
Village Runner is the only Injinji retailer in the area, so I stopped by to pick up some socks for my Fivefingers. There were 1 or 2 other people in store, I waited patiently to ask a few questions and check out, but frankly, I feel like I had more concern about being cordial and friendly than the guy working there did. Their selection of Injinjis was kinda sparse too - 2 styles, only black, if I recall correctly.
Will I stop by here again? Yes. (They're still the closest and Injinjis aren't any cheaper online) Was the experience horrible? No. But it wasn't anything to be impressed with, and I expected a little more from a non-chain specialty store.
