Phidippides

Have bought many shoes here. Every time I have been given personal attention with a friendly attitude. I would recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a decent running shoe.

Call me old fashioned but I like being able to go into a store and tell them my issues/goals and use their knowledge on how to solve things. Eric did that for me today and it had been way too long in between visits. Love this place and want to support my locals.

I've been coming to these guys for years. I recently moved OTP but made a point in coming back to get new shoes. I got a pair in the morning after we fitted and check them out. After a brief walk on the beltline I realized the shoes were hurting. I brought them back and they immediately started helping me find the right ones. We probably went through eight different pairs of shoes until both of us were satisfied. They even found arch supporting insoles that have helped tremendously. If a functional walking or running shoe is necessary this is the place to go. It doesn't hurt that the shoes look great too.

The folks at Phidippides are simply awesome! I never go anywhere else for my running shoes. Bram, the sales associate who assisted me, thoroughly evaluated my shoe size needs and running style, and made recommendations that really made sense and made me feel very comfortable with my final decision. I'm going to love my new Brooks shoes! Thank you Bram and Phidippides!!

Had a great experience at Phidippides today. Gregory was wonderful. Spent almost an hour making sure I purchased the RIGHT walking shoe. And I paid the same (or maybe less, as they were on sale) as I would have at a big box sporting goods store where I would have received no assistance at all. Definitely worth the drive and the time after work.

Excellent experience. They had very friendly experts guide us through the fitting process and gait analysis. They brought out multiple shoes for us to try, and encouraged us to run through the store to get a better feel for the shoes. Ended up getting the Brooks Ghosts 11. Would come back.

Gregory made me feel at home and was so patient. What could have been an intimidating experience was wonderful. I received professional, knowledgeable customer service for over an hour, and bought a great pair of shoes for a fair price. What more can you ask for?

The selection is a little limited but the staff more than makes up for it. They’re incredibly knowledgeable and they don’t try to sell you shoes you don’t need. They analyze your stride and suggest different shoes to meet your running needs. I’ve bought my last 3 pairs of running shoes from them and will continue to shop there.

Let me start out that I'm not a runner by any means, but I needed some seriously comfortable new shoes. I popped in here last night and Gregory met me with a big smile and a hello. Being its been years since I've gotten fitted for shoes I immediately knew I came to the right place.
After he diagnosed my walking pattern he got right down to it. He spent 45 minutes with me, with what seemed like a dozen pairs of shoes and boosting the arches for me, he came upon the perfect pair for me.
Thank you Gregory! You are amazing!

The Covid situation is that you wait outside and the staff will bring you shoes to try on. Only took my friendly clerk (who was pleasantly conscientious about my budget) three tries to find me perfect running shoes on sale. She even had me run up and down the sidewalk a ways to check my gait so she could pull the right style of shoe for me.

We live in Piedmont Heights, the neighborhood for Phidippides and have had nothing but the best service over the years getting fitted for our running shoes. I switched brands after working with them a few years ago and never looked back. Great customer service!

I have been to many stores over the years but this is the best. They do not have the latest tech to find your shoes, but have people that know what they are talking about. I have got to give a shout to Gregory Sheets. He's patient, listens, knows everything these is to know, and treats you like a friend right from the start. If you want the best, this is where he works! They won't let you leave the store unless they have found your sole mate. They just don't push a shoe of the month.

Staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. They had plenty of shoes to try on in my size. Staff had lots of tips for my marathon training. Nice big store.

Recently bought some new running shoes after a hiatus, and they were great, as I had remembered. COVID precautions were in place. Anthony really worked to find me the shoes I needed. Highly recommend them.

Yesterday was my first time in store. I have flat wide feet, issues with planar fasciitis, and run on the ball of the foot; making it difficult to find footwear. Laid out what I was looking for. With help from the staff, I left with a purchase in ~20 min which I hope to start breaking in this afternoon.

Teresa was so helpful! She added cushioning to the arch of each shoe. I feel like these running shoes are not only the best fit but also perfectly customized to my feet!

I came in needing a new pair of shoes for work. I believe his name was Mike? Maybe matt? Honestly helped me try on probably 12 pairs of shoes. I'm a die-hard Brooks adrenaline person. We tried on a bunch of different shoes as there was no Brooks adrenaline in my size, but we quickly realized I could just go up a size. Love him!

Just ran three miles (after a long hiatus due to an injury) in a pair of new shoes perfectly selected by Dr. Gregory (he's worthy of the degree). Totally pleased with the thoroughness, friendliness, patience, and knowledge the doctor displayed. Worthy of 10 stars!

Calvin was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. He knew everything there is to know about running shoes. He brought out half a dozen different pairs for me to try on and gave me his undivided attention throughout the entire process. I will be buying all my running shoes from Calvin from now on.

Gregory and Mindy were awesome! Helped out with not only finding the best shoe but also fitting that shoe to fit perfectly for my jacked up foot. I wouldn't go to another place for kicks and I live 6 hrs away
