The Nike Factory Store at the Pike used to be my favorite Nike store to go to because I felt like…read morethat store had better shoe selections. Luckily that has changed now. They have a good selection of shoes for every activity. And they are always affordable. Sometime the deal is just too good, I end up walking out with 2 pairs of shoes. Service: Always friendly. And after you're done browsing some shoes, you can go to Trader Joes to get some groceries, or grab a donut from Side Car. And yes I'm talking from experience. Lol. Parking: Huge parking lot. Always easy to find parking here. Will I be back? Yup! I actually went there today. So I'll see you in a couple months Nike Factory Store!

I needed a new pair of running shoes and managed to score a pair of $145 shoes for $69.50, plus two t-shirts for less than $10 each. The store was pretty organized and clean, and the person who helped us checkout was friendly and efficient working the register. Worth stopping by and keeping an eye out for sales!

Update: After I left this review (that I also left on Google), Road Runner Sports asked me to email…read morethem. I did, and I was later told that the Torrance manager and team had "touched base" with me, which is inaccurate. The only interaction I had with the store after my purchase was when I returned the same day to try to return the shoes. No one from the store ever contacted me afterward to follow up or try to resolve the issue. Unfortunately, no resolution was offered. Still the worse experience I've ever had. AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL. ---- Road Runner Sports started as a promising experience but turned into one of the most frustrating customer service situations I've had. I came in to buy running shoes, and the initial process seemed great. The associate scanned my feet (which was actually pretty cool), had me try insoles, and brought out three shoe options that fit my profile. However, communication was difficult, he was mostly mumbling, and I had to repeatedly ask him to clarify what he was saying. When I decided on a pair of ASICS, he immediately tried to upsell the insoles (around $120), even though I had only tried the shoes with those insoles, not with the original ones. That felt a bit misleading. At checkout, he also pushed the VIP membership, saying it would give me 90 days to try the shoes and return them if needed, making it sound like that flexibility depended on being a member. We declined. When I got home and tried to run in the shoes, I couldn't even last 90 seconds, they just didn't work for me. We called the store (using the number listed online) and were told that as long as the shoes looked brand new, we could return them. That gave us confidence to go back. Unfortunately, the in-store experience during the return was completely different. The associate told us: * The shoes did not qualify as "brand new" * We could not get a refund to the original payment method unless we were members * The only option was a gift card Then, again, we were offered the membership as a solution. The inconsistency between what we were told on the phone and what happened in-store, combined with the repeated upselling, made this a very frustrating experience. What started as a helpful, professional fitting ended with unclear policies and poor communication.

2/22/25 Theory tested, $100 custom insole proved to be worth it, my feet say so. Now, they're $120…read more Got two pairs before they sell for $150 each, which I think is still incredibly steep. Another Saturday and it's not as busy today, barely waited less than 5 minutes when Lorenzo approached us & offered assistance. No muss no fuss. As per usual there's the push for yearly membership, but he didn't press it & I appreciated it. Lorenzo was kind & attentive. I pointed to the custom insole, Lorenzo had it warmed in the machine then I stood on it to make the impression, one & done. Decidedly, why not get two pairs before it rises to an incredible $150 per pair? And we're off. Hubby got them for me, woohoo! It's a 12 hour shift but in reality, I'm on these puppies at least-4 hrs- BRUTAL! Parking is plentiful which is shared with other businesses. One errand DONE, scratch off the list Yay!

But after wearing the shoes they hurt my feet horribly and all around my feet, including my toes. When I'm done with a full day of work, I can't wait to take them off. I tried to take them back for an exchange because I felt that they were too expensive ($200 plus) to just accept as being that uncomfortable when the store touts comfortable, orthopedic shoes. They would not exchange them due to them being worn a few times. I understand their policy but it's really hard to gauge full day comfortability without wearing them for a full day and the shoes were sold with the promise that they would be good for my feet; this was unequivocally false. Retaining customers and having them come back time and again because they like and trust your brand matters. I will not be shopping here again and would recommend trying other stores in your area if planters fasciitis plagues you. Before this I had gotten a pair of shoes from Evolution Footwear; I should have gone back there instead.

What kinda mess is that. The young salesgirl behind the counter was even embarrassed to keep referring to the manager for any questions I had about the sizes. I honestly thought this was a sample store like all the shoes were priced as is because it was something was wrong with the shoe, last season styles or they only came in a size 8, all jokes aside. I drove to Del Amo for a pair of sandals and picked up some sneakers from new balance on Hawthorne. I hope business picks up so the manager finds reason to accommodate someone other then a size 8 or possibly 9, 9.5, or 10 in women's shoe. I couldn't imagine what the Men's sizes go up to ... a 10 lol ...shame.

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
