A Snail's Pace Running Shop

Michael is the best! He took his time to explain the difference in fit and helped me pick the best walking shoe! He was so knowledgeable and kind. Thank you again!

I am have many problems with my feet but the staff is so knowledgeable, they found me exercise shoes that fit perfect and wear well. Great selection, great staff!

I went to Snail's Pace for new long-distance running shoes to address my particular running style and physical condition. Jacob got me on the treadmill, evaluated my stride and footfalls, tried me with eight pairs of shoes, and patiently enabled me to walk, run and feel the new shoes we tried. Excellent advice from him, and perfect solution for me. Thank you once again, A Snail's Pace!!

Went to this store to receive expert foot measurement, view a large selection of shoe choices, and to try on and get expert recommendations for my needs. The salesman was extremely helpful to me and i ended up with a shoe brand i never would have tried on without his input. Very happy with my purchase. Worth the visit

Great experience trying on the new Altra Timp, Lone Peak, and Olympus! The staff brought me through their fitting process smoothly and helped me understand more about my foot shape and strike. Running on the treadmill was probably the coolest part of the fitting process.

Awesome staff! The ONLY place to buy running shoes. They will analyze your feet and running style to make sure you get the best shoe for you.

Most comprehensive evaluation of shoe fit and function. I found the perfect shoes for trailrunning and walking here. You'll find the most helpful, engaging staff here. Great selection of running socks and other accessories, too. If you truly want functional orthotics, they will make them here.

This was my first time visiting a running store to get fitted so I was quite nervous. Micah greeted us when we walked in and was very informative throughout the process. I was delighted with the service and will be returning!

Had been having foot pain due to prior surgery and nerve damage for several months. Had been to snailspace before because they have nice selection of shoes. So thought I would try again. The salesman spent an incredible amount of time listening to me and analyzing my needs. And he was so very knowledgeable. I bought two pair of shoes because both so comfortable and my foot pain now gone! I wish I had gone sooner. Thank you so much!!

I love the shoes I recently bought at a Snail's Pace. I no longer run, but I walk hills & trails often. Since I like to alternate my shoes, I usually buy two pairs at a time. Recently, the salesman who helped me was incredibly patient and helpful. He didn't seem surprised or annoyed that I left w/2 pairs of the same shoe. They're comfortable, supportive, not too light, not too heavy ~ just right! Thank you Snail's Pace ~ I'll be back in about 6 months.

Amazing customer service by the assistant manager “NOAH”. Alot of patience. He’s the man!!! Bought 3 pairs of HOKAs

I highly recommend Snail’s Pace!!!!Shane took his time to find the right shoes for my feet! Shane is very knowledge on ALL of the shoes they sell! They have a price point for every budget!Im so happy with my shoes and my feet are also happy!!! Can’t thank you enough for your patience & kindness!

I had been going to big box stores for shoes for 10 years and generally not happy. Went into Snails Pace and got help immediately, went through the quick foot fitting process and the first pair of shoes recommend were much better than I had been getting over the past years and the same price. Quick, effective and cheap. 2 weeks later I am very happy.

I am so happy with this shop! I am pretty new to running and unfortunately chose a pair of shoes that just didn’t work for me. They took the shoes back no questions asked and said, “We just want to get you into the right ones.” I got a new pair and some insoles to help me out. My husband runs marathons and has purchased his last couple pairs of shoes from here. Everyone who works at the shop is so nice and knowledgeable, patiently explaining the basics to a newbie like me and discussing the shoes more in-depth with my husband. My husband loves them and will find any excuse to tag along with me to the shop. We really appreciate their time and care for their customers and will always come here for shoes in the future. Thanks guys!

I went in looking for a particular brand and model and they felt pretty good. I asked Micah if he could suggest an alternative and what he suggested was not only way better but also a little cheaper. I am extremely happy with my new dream running shoes. Micah really knows his stuff. Thank you Micah!!

The staff is always helpful, knowledgeable and puts the customer first. I have a son who runs cross country, so he goes through shoes, fast. Snails Pace in Mission Viejo never disappoint us, takes the time to let him/us try on as many shoes as needed. They want you to buy what's best for you.

I have a 15yo running Track and XC, as well as Varsity and Club Soccer. She does a lot of miles and was starting to get sore knees doing XC practice. We went to A Snails Pace to get some advice on her shoes. They did a thorough analysis of her running style and foot shape and recommended shoes based on this. All knee issues went away. We have been back twice more since our first visit and won't go anywhere else for all of our running shoe needs. Prices are great, online ordering and fast delivery. What more could you want

Love shopping here for running shoes & apparel. Friendly staff and great selection! Always happy to support a local small business

I was so impressed with the care and knowledgeable service I received at A Snail’s Pace. I had gone to another runners shoe store the week before and had no help at all, but I was able to find a great pair of shoes and am so glad I found this place. Highly recommend

My husband took me to Snails Pace to gift me a pair of running shoes for Thanksgiving, as I recently started running everyday. I can’t begin to tell you how fabulous my experience was. The store is amazing and the staff is super helpful, especially Scott. He was patient with me to not only understand my running style but also suggested shoes that would give me the extra support around my ankles. He even taught me an unique way of tying my laces just so that the ankles get the support around them. I tried 7-8 pairs of shoes before zeroing down on my first pair of Brooks. I’d like to thank Scott and the entire team of Snails Pace for making such a basic experience of buying sports shoes, memorable.
