I love great customer service and that's exactly what I received today at Front Runners. I called…read morebefore I went in to inquire about the foot scan and Michael was very kind and helpful. When I went into the store and started to look around, a gentleman came out & said someone would be right with me. A few seconds later, Tehani (Assistant Manager) approached me and asked how she could help me. Well she did just that and more!! We did the scan and I was so shocked when she told me my shoe size! I've been wrong all 40 yrs of my life! My right foot is a half size bigger She also had me walk and noticed that my feet leaned inward. Based on the results of the scan & her observation, she recommended Hokas and Brooks. I initially came into the store for the Hoka Gaviota but she suggested the Arahis for me. Unfortunately, they didn't have the size in the color that I wanted so I'll order them online. however, she did also help me with some shoe inserts for my current pair of tennis shoes and some Oofa slides to wear in the house. I'm so used to wear slippers but these slides feel so great on my achy heel and arches. Honestly, my feet already feel a lot better from just from walking with the new inserts. The Oofas were a little more in cost than I saw online but it was so worth the experience and the knowledge I received from Tehani. I would definitely shop with them again. The store is very easy to find when you're driving down Hawthorne and there's PLENTY of parking. All of the staff were welcoming! 5 stars

This store receives high marks for all three metrics: service, selection, and value…read more Let's start with service. We came here right when it opened and was assisted immediately. I asked if they carried the 1080s in a size 7.5 in black. She asked if I wanted the regular width or wide version. I didn't know there were options, but having wider feet, I asked for the wide one. She left and returned with two pair of shoes in different widths. One regular and one extra wide. The extra wide one fit like a glove. She gave me time to try them on and walk around. She then came back to check up on me. The selection here is very good. I had scouted the 1080s in a specific color and size online and this store had them. In terms of value, I would also say I got a good deal on these shoes. Six months ago, on the website, these shoes were selling for $165. I got mine here for $100. Some final thoughts: The man at checkout was very nice. He did want us to provide an email for the receipt. Apparently if you lose your physical receipt, you can still return your shoes with the emailed receipt. I had no intention of returning the shoes so passed on providing the email, but this may be something for you to consider if you're not entirely sure those shoes you're buying are keepers. Also, please be aware that the shoes are organized on the walls by shoe models, not male or female.

I brought in a pair of brand-new, unworn sneakers that were received as a Christmas gift. I clearly explained that I was not seeking a refund, only an exchange or store credit. As is common with gifts, the receipt could not be located. At the store, the associate was dismissive and repeatedly stated there was "nothing that could be done," without making any effort to assist, locate the purchase, or offer alternatives. When I asked how to escalate the issue or contact corporate, I was told I could not do so and was again shut down. I then contacted customer service and received the same rude and dismissive response. I was told "policy is policy," with no attempt to help, no explanation beyond that statement, and no interest in resolving the issue. The tone from both the store and customer service was unprofessional and unacceptable. It is unreasonable to treat a customer this way over a brand-new, unworn gift item, especially when I was simply trying to exchange it and continue shopping with your company. This experience reflects very poorly on your customer service standards. I am requesting this matter be reviewed and that I be contacted regarding a resolution.

This is a beautifully designed store with a good selection of products but the staff doesn't seem all that interested in providing customers with a good experience. The first time we came in to buy shoes we had to actively search for someone to help us. While they were friendly and responsive to our requests to try on shoes the person seemed a bit distracted and not that knowledgeable about the products. The second time we were there, we had a problem with the shoes we bought on our first visit and were looking for a solution. The shoes were about four months old and the inside of the heel had collapsed. We wanted to just exchange them for a new pair since it had been such a short time since the original purchase. The person at the counter was dismissive. When I explained the problem with the product she did not acknowledge the defect even though it was quite easy to see. She explained that the in-store exchange/return policy was 60 days I asked if they might be able to help me online or at their customer service phone number and she said she didn't know but that I should leave and Google it. Not a great experience. I sat down inside the store and called customer service and connected with the nicest, most helpful customer service person ever who immediately did her best to understand the issue with the shoes and let me know she would do everything she could to help me. Since the product failed, we were well within the time limit to return the shoes for a full refund. The return window is much longer online or on the phone. She also made me aware that the original product we purchased was now on sale so she helped me return the defective product and then helped me purchase a replacement at the new sale price. It could not have been a more perfect experience. I would recommend trying products on in the store and then buying online or over the phone. The customer service in the store doesn't make shopping there worthwhile unless you don't want to wait for the shoes to be shipped to you. Love all the Nike styles just would like a better in-store experience.
