I just transitioned from a desk job to one where I'm constantly running around and on my feet and I…read morerealized my Converse and fashion sneakers weren't cutting it. Thoroughly impressed with my first visit to On the Run Shoes. It's been at least 20 years since the last time I had the kind of full service shoe shopping that they provide here. I arrived on a Saturday around noon, was greeted immediately upon entering, and was asked if I was in to browse or if I needed assistance. I chose the latter and was assigned very promptly to the sales specialist Will. He had me sit and asked me questions on what I was looking for. I told him about my new work situation and he asked what kinds of aches and pains I was experiencing in my feet at work. I told him it was primarily in the arch and ball of my foot and I was mostly worried about my knees and lower back. My job involves shipping and order fulfillment and I work out of a converted home in the city - all day long I'm either standing, carrying boxes up and down stairs, or running around doing various tasks. It's rare that I sit unless I'm on my lunch break. Will also had me take the shoes I was wearing off and walk back and forth in my socks so he could analyze my gait. Then he measured my feet and turns out that my shoe size is more of an 8 or 8.5 - I'd been wearing size 7 for years! After the consultation Will brought out three pairs of shoes for me to try. HOKA, New Balance, and Brooks. He put them on me and laced them up, then had me walk around in them and give him feedback. I figured out pretty quickly that the New Balance shoes felt the best - the other two were a little too roomy and wide - I like the feeling when a shoe is hugging my foot and is secure. I was also recommended to get special cork insoles for greater arch support and stability. Will put those insoles into the shoes I chose and had me feel the difference. I ended up purchasing both the shoes and insoles. Total with tax was just a little over $240. It's the most I've spent on shoes in decades but it's worth the splurge being that I'll be wearing these at least 5 out of the 7 days each week. At checkout I was told of their return policy - only store credit and the shoes have to be in re-sellable condition. I doubt I'm going to have problems with these after the very thorough consultation and selection process. Thank you to everyone and especially to Will for an amazing experience. I'll definitely be back and also highly recommend anyone to go here if you want happy feet. I take public transport in the city and the 44 MUNI drops me off literally across the street from the shop at 9th and Irving.

He picked out everything I needed, and I picked a pair of 990 Sneakers. By the time I got home, the shoes were uncomfortable. Today I realized my feet were rocking from side to side and front to back. I took off the sneakers and saw that the inserts were crooked and sliding. The backs of the inserts have stickers to stick to the bottom of the shoe. They have a paper cover over them that needs to be taken off. James did not do that, so my foot was sliding all over the place. I myself took care of it today. This is something James should have known to do. And for $270, I received extremely poor service.

Apparently, due to inventory loss, the customer can only try one shoe at a time. When I was ready to try the right shoe, they summarily ignored me, even though I was ready to purchase. Don't bother wasting your time. Purchase elsewhere. NOT RECOMMENDED! At least six employees standing doing nothing. Maybe time to cut unproductive staff. By the way the door says to pull, but there is no handle, to deter shoplifters, which is certainly a fire safety code violation.

Meanwhile, Blicks on the same block was so cool about it, and their store is way more crowded with stuff. From the outside peeking in, BAIT looked very spacious, like a fairly recent pop up, so I really don't understand the no bikes policy. If anything, they should put a couple of bike racks inside to invite more business. Most businesses on Market St actually don't mind bikes inside so as long as you're respectful about it. But BAIT didn't even give me a chance to spend my money. Bummer.

For a store like this in a city like this I can see why they'd be cautious or would fully neglect to answer questions on the items they have in stock. It's better to go in. Customer service was cool. It wasn't a busy day and I got to try on some shoes I was interested in. There was one pair though that wasn't on the shelf and I didn't know it was some popular release. Apparently they were the Dime x Asics and the person who won never came to pick them up. They're a nice basic shoe. I'd say if you pay attention to subtle details you'd like the slight brown ombre on the shoe. Anyway, after trying on AJ1 lows that were comfy, and another pair of AJ1Mids in women's that I would have bought had they been available in my actual size and not a half size down, I walked out with the Asics. Customer service was great because the associate helping me was actually helpful. They brought me the shoes I wanted and after small talk it seemed like they picked up on the fact that I'm a bit of a sneaker lover, hence the recommendation for the shoes that were a collab and sold out everywhere release. I'm glad they were in my size. Also, they gave me the info to find the shoes that I wanted in my size on their website. Anyway, cool store and cool location.
