Felt rushed and steered towards a specific shoe, explicitly asked to try on a few more and the two reps looked at me and pretty much said that was the best I was gonna get so I purchased it. I tried on two pairs in total and was in the store for literally less than 10 minutes.
The next day I didnt feel right about it and wasnt super happy with my experience and had a feeling I didnt really get to see all the options that might be best for my arthritic toe, so I went to a different store that had excellent customer service and a shoe that was perfect for me. (Shoutout to Eli at St.Pete Running Company)
I went back to return my shoes from here and politely explained my frustration with my experience. To add insult to injury he replied with "well we didnt make you buy it or put a gun to your head". No apology, just an excuse of they showed me the two shoes they had that might work because they didnt have their new shoes for the month in yet. I had purchased from here prior but will not be a repeat customer except to use the store credit I received upon return.

I have been shopping at American Running Company for many years and would not consider going elsewhere. CJ is very helpful in finding the right shoe for me, including checking my gait, my arches, and overall fit. He knows how often I buy new shoes and makes sure he has them in stock when he anticipates my visit. I highly recommend American Running Company!!
