Went in looking to get the foot scan that is so highly touted. The unprofessional approach by the employee was already a turn off, but I continued on with the foot scan. After the scan, the employee showed me the iPad and read me the numbers not telling me anything other than my feet aren't symmetrical. According to the employee I should be wearing a size 13 shoe. Instantly I said absolutely not! My everyday shoes are a size 11, I understand running shoes should be a half size to a full size larger. The employee insisted on bringing me a shoe i showed zero interest towards in a size 13. Now, of course they didn't fit. I told the employee which brand I wanted to try "ON" and the guessing game began. 12.5 nope, 12 nope, and I left. I specifically told the employee what size I wanted and I was completely ignored.
Aside from the poor service experience I was stunned at what minimal selection of shoes they had. The Mens shoe display rack was probably 4 to 5 feet wide and 6 feet tall. Looking towards the back of the store it appeared the women's selection wasn't any better.
I ended up ordering a size 11.5 online, from fleetfeet.com only because of their return policy, and they fit great. Your store lost a $150 sale because of ignorance and stubbornness. I will be sure to drive twice as far to spend my $15 reward from my purchase.
If you are shopping for a shoes specifically sold at fleet feet (Hughes Landing/The Woodlands) be sure to stand your ground and buy what feels right, not what some employee pushes on you.
Good Luck, Happy Running
