Really really great folk. My PT recommended I get fitted for a running shoe here, and he was spot on. We were helped by David and Vicky who were friendly, personable and so knowledgeable. They listened to my needs, and spent 30 minutes fitting me with different shoes until we found the right pair. They didn't have the color I wanted so special ordered it. Amazing service. I will come back to this specific location just because the employees are so great read more

Popped into this store on a whim at the recommendation of a Dick's sales associate when I mentioned shopping for new running shoes. I had my dog with me and Lucky Road was more than OK with her coming in. Two staff were working, a gentleman and a woman (Kat). Kat was so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. They have reasonably priced apparel as well such as tanks for $30 and shirts for $40. If you're an avid runner (or looking to get into it), this is the perfect store for you! read more

I love Lucky Road! All of the shops know their stuff and have a great selection. I love how they sponsor a lot of the local races which makes me want to support them even more so, especially the one in Willow Lawn. Had great success in finding a pair of trail running shoes at the Short Pump location. The sales-people know their stuff and were able to fit me exactly! I used their $10 off coupon and also qualified for a free Lucky Road technical shirt which I wear to the weekly ParkRun at Deep Run Park! read more

Personalized customer service? Yes, please! That's exactly what you'll get when you visit Lucky Road Run Shop. We had great customer service here in the past. We weren't prepared for the excellent service we received these past two visits. Swiftly, upon entering the store, an employee greeted us and asked what we needed. In mere moments, these employees surrounded us with 4 or 5 different pairs of running shoes to try on. The kind people at Lucky Road even gave us an education as we tried on our shoes. They showed us how to lace the shoes properly for the right fit. After lacing up, we walked down a hallway to check our stride and gait with these new shoes. After comparing these pairs of shoes, it was easy to make our choice. All the while, the helpful employees guided us through the process. The shoes were a variety of price points. We believe we get what we pay for, so we were happy to select Hoka shoes. They really stand the test of time. Upon reaching the register, we signed up for rewards. They told us that we had 47 days to return the shoes, but we weren't concerned about that. Leaving the store, and finding our car was fairly quick, as Lucky Road is in a shopping center with ample parking. read more

I went to the newest store out in Short Pump. Been having issues with runner's knee. Mike G. helped me. One of the best customer service experiences I've had in a long long time. He did some gait analysis and found a pair for me that made a big difference. Can't recommend Mike enough! read more

My boyfriend and I came in to try out some On Clouds and had an amazing experience with Blake! She was super friendly and knowledgeable not only about On Clouds, but all of the brands they carry and gave great recommendations for what would work for each of us. She took her time and never made us feel pressured to try anything we didn't want or even make a purchase, which was even more appreciated. She made us feel like family and we will definitely be customers again! read more

Lucky Road Run Shop - Store front - Sports Wear Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

On a tennis shoe "hunt" for my husband's upcoming birthday. My husband loves the Hoka brand. We went to two big box stores, where the service was minimum and the shoe selection was not great. While looking around, my husband wanted his feet sized and not a single employee knew how to use the Brannock foot measuring device they have laying around in their store. What's the point of having the device if no one knows how to use the darn thing? We weren't getting far in our search and becoming restless searching, we decided to leave the big box location. While leaving the big box brand store, I came across a few Google reviews for Lucky Road Run Shop at Willow Lawn. I convinced my husband to try one more spot, and I'm glad he did! When we entered Luck Road Run Shop, we were greeted by more than one Lucky Road employee and assisted immediately. Desiree and Jeff were very helpful and informative in our shoe selection process. The customer service they provided was impeccable. While assisting us, Desiree was in the process of training a new employee, and the patience and care she had for her employee (who is also a customer of their establishment prior to being hired) really showed she cares about making sure their new-hires are properly trained. Desiree even convinced my husband who is an avid Hoka brand supporter to try a different shoe brand, Brooks, based on the foot support he needed. They fitted him properly for a shoe, and my husband is very satisfied with his purrchase. I believe we received a great value for the service and product provided. My husband told me as we left the store, we will purchase our tennis shoes from Lucky Road Run Shop for the following reasons: "family owned-business, quality customer service, value for product and selection, loyalty reward system, and they know how to use the damn Brannock foot measuirng device." :) Oh I forgot to mention, I got a pair tennis shoes for myself during the process. Picked mine up today! Needed something specifically for a cardio dance class to support my over pronation and impact from jumping. When I walked in, Desiree remembered me and provided exceptional customer service! read more

I never leave reviews, but working with Levi was nothing short of amazing, so I feel compelled to give this place its kudos. Walked in for my teenage daughter and I had no idea what to expect. We were looking for a really good running shoe because she has experienced shin splits and several other injuries during her track season. Not only did Levi assess her needs and present a shoe that got this finicky teenager excited about something. But we bonded over the pink ribbon that was the highlight of the shoe. The entire store was welcoming and warm. I think we have found our new running store. read more

I can't say enough good things about Lucky Road. Every time I go in there for purchase, it is always a fabulous experience! Today Jeff helped both my mom and I with our purchase. I am having some foot issues and explained and he is educated and knew exactly what was happening and helped get me in to the right pair of shoes. They offer rewards as well as a happiness guarantee should you not be completely satisfied. Always, always wonderful to shop here! read more

I recently acquired a pair of shoes here. They had to be special ordered , hoping to receive them in time to give as a gift . They arrived at the Fredericksburg store and the owner sent her son up to get them for me to have the next day. Then the shoes were too big. The store reordered a smaller size and we had them fast shipped. Blake was so helpful and patient with it all. She followed through and gave me personalized service I would not have gotten at a big box store. She was cheerful, upbeat and understanding. read more

We love this shop! My sister and I came in to purchase some new shoes. We're more walkers than runners, but that Lucky Road still gave us a great experience. Mark helped us out and he is AMAZING. He is very patient, personal, and knowledgeable. We probably stayed in the store for an hour (which was not our expectation.) But we tried on a lot of shoes and had so many questions. The only place we'll buy running/walking/workout shoes going forward. Thanks, Lucky Road! read more

I try to support local but when you mark up accessories by $20 then I have to post on here. Two Nathan Insulated water bottles both marked up $15 and $17 dollars. Bought them both on Amazon next day delivery. I can totally understand a $4 dollar mark up but not what I saw today. read more

Helpful staff and good selection of products. Purchased a pair of Trekz Titanuims which I love. read more

Lucky Road Run Shop - Sports Wear Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

I truly love this place. If you are just starting to get into running or really need some good running shoes this is the place to go. I have already purchased 2 pairs of shoes with them. The second time I bought some Brook shoes and I went back to the store because I wasn't sure if they were the right pair for me. The people at the store seriously took their time to help me out and settle any doubts I had. They have this awesome "45 happiness policy", which basically says that if you aren't happy with the shoe you can bring it back and get fitted again. Highly recommend this place. read more

This place is fantastic. All the employees are RUNNERS and SO knowledgable! They watched me run in all the shoes I tried on and helped me find the perfect pair for my running gait. Very personable, attentive, and helpful! You will NEVER get this level of care, attention, or knowledge somewhere like Dicks! I am sold. Oh AND they have a 47 day "happy customer" policy if your shoes don't pan out. What more could you ask for?? Not the cheapest shoes, but for an athlete, good shoes are one of the best investments you can make. I am very excited to have this store in my neighborhood now!! :) read more

Lucky Road Run Shop - New Shoes!! - Sports Wear Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Love this place. I needed walking shoes to get started training for a 10K walk. They were helpful, kind, humorous, and truly receptive to questions (probably dopey ones!). They really are wonderful in every way. read more

Driving south on 95 heading for a few days vacation, when I had to make an emergency stop here because I realized I forgot to pack my running shoes. The lady who helped me was wonderful. Unfortunately they did not have my size in my usual shoe, so she brought out few similar style shoes in my brand. She was very attentive and didn't seem to mind I was in a hurry to get back in traffic on 95. I wish I could have stayed longer because there seem to be a great selection of gear. read more

Jeff is extremely knowledge and easy to work with. I highly recommend Lucky Road if you are looking for a great pair of running shoes. Jeff and his staff are accommodating and a breath of fresh air. read more

Walked in hesitant. Greeted by super helpful employee. I explained my problem with my current shoes and further explained that I really have no idea what I'm doing. He watched me run a few times and helped me pick out shoes that would be compatible with my style. It's been a few months and he was spot on. I haven't had any of the issues I'd had prior. I also got a discount for being a member of the gym within the complex. read more

I was excited to hear that Lucky Foot was coming to Richmond! I went into the Willow Lawn location in early Feb looking for the latest version of Asics Gel Nimbus 17. I knew I needed a bigger size than I had previously run distance in but they had nothing larger than a 10. The sales person offered to order them for me in a 10.5 and 11 so that I could determine which would work for me. I left all my information and watched as the young man accurately recorded in the order book what I had requested. A week went by and I heard nothing. I contacted the store and was told they were not in yet. Another week went by, I called again. This time I was informed that the shoe I wanted wasn't available until March 1st. I waited until after March 1st and went into the store, I was told they were having some problems with the shipments. OK! So I wait another week and I go in again... no shipment. Finally the third week of March (as I was tired of waiting) I went to Road Runners on Cary Street. Mind you this was a Saturday. They ordered the shoes for me as I stood there and Wednesday (that's right, 4 days later) I received a call from Road Runners telling me my shoes were in. On the same day I received voice message from Lucky Foot telling me some story about a strike at Asics and that that is why my shoes were not in. Riiiight! I got my shoes from Road Runners but I continued to have contact with Lucky Foot regarding the pair I had ordered through them. They were yellow by the way and that's what was written in the order book too. (see above) This past Wednesday, March 25th I received another message from Lucky Foot advising that my shoes were in! Both the 10.5 and 11 and they would be there for me when I was ready. I called them back the same day and assured them that I do want the shoes but most likely couldn't get there until Saturday. Today, March 27th, I get another message from Lucky Foot saying that they saw I ordered some shoes but weren't sure if I was squared away, so if I still want the shoes I should call them back. REALLY!!!! I called back. I told the young lady that I had just spoken to someone two days ago and advised her of our conversation and that the shoes both the 10.5 and 11 were to be on hold for me. She seemed to understand. I decided I'd best go pick them up tonight. Guess what? They only 10.5 AND in the wrong color. The man that "helped" me, advised that he is responsible the ordering and then hurried off to the back. He came back out telling me that the only thing he could come up with (I guess he was back there trying to come up with something??) was that this was a limited edition color and was only available in Feb. I ordered the limited (NOT) edition color online this evening and will have them in 4 to 7 business days which is less than I spent on gas and time with Lucky (not so much) Foot. I would not recommend these people to anyone. The sales people are VERY nice but unfortunately there is a complete breakdown of communication in this store. Not to mention I feel like I was lied to at least twice (see strike story and limited edition story). If you need shoes save your time and go to Road Runners!! read more
