I recently purchased a pair of Brooks Ghost 18 sneakers from Fallen Arch in Lake Placid and I was…read morevery impressed with the customer service. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in helping find the right shoe. They took the time to answer my questions and made the whole buying experience easy and enjoyable. The Brooks Ghost 18s feel great and I'm very happy with my purchase. It's refreshing to receive this kind of personal service rather than simply being handed a pair of shoes and sent on your way. I would definitely recommend Fallen Arch in Lake Placid to anyone looking for quality footwear and excellent customer service. I'll be back!

I've always had a decent experience at EMS. I have gotten a lot of my winter hiking gear from EMS…read moreand generally venture into the store when I'm in the area to browse around. Most recently, they had a lot of deals extended past Black Friday, but unfortunately most retail coveted items like Kahtoola microspikes were not on sale and still full price at $69.95. The store is multiple levels and the employees have always been friendly at directing me on where to find things. I do wish they carried Darn Tough Socks from Vermont, but they have a different fake-wool sort of sock brand which I don't like as much. I've had to venture to stores like The Mountaineer to find DTS. I've also looked at climbing equipment and harnesses here, but mostly found the pricing not competitive as the climbing gym, so passed on some of the selections. Despite that, I've purchased snacks and always enjoyed browsing from here. I do think EMS products are pretty high quality in general and last a while, so whether you're looking for gear, snowshoe rental, base layers or whatever you may want for some outdoor adventure, definitely check out this spot!

I was expecting pain in my quadriceps and Robin determined I needed to get more forward in my athletic stance. The addition of heal lifts in my boots gets me more forward in my stance.

Robin and the good folks who work here can analyze your stance and make adjustments. Thank You! I will be back for years to come.

They even emailed photos of the boots and the measurements as I was concerned about the fit. I ended up with a product I could never find here in Australia and they were a perfect fit. Cathy the owner returned every email almost immediately (given the huge time difference between Sydney and NY that's amazing in itself). I highly recommend a visit to Ruthie's Run. I'll certainly be buying from them again!
