My husband has been telling me for years to come shop here. I finally broke down and went in yesterday. I’m pretty insecure from all the weight I’ve gained due to heath issues. Let me tell you, Anthony is nothing short of amazing! He recorded me walking, pointed out tendencies I have with gait and such, took measurements and picked out shoes. Of the five or six pairs I tried on, only one was not comfortable. The one I picked out myself! He showed me different lacing techniques for different situations I may have. I bought a ... read more

Amazing online shopping experience! I knew the shoe I needed and wanted because of previous skilled fittings with playmaker associates. I was able to find that shoe on their website, in stock, in my giant women’s size 12. I was so excited to see that they offered free shipping over $60 that I went and added a pair of socks to my order. I might have caught the timing just right, but they had my order prepped and ready for mailing in less than an hour. And somehow even with all the postal delays my package arrived the followin... read more

Nicole was fantastic! She went through my gait, my needs, and as we kept talking was so enthusiastic in explaining the details of what each shoe could do for me. I never felt rushed and it was a fantastic experience. I have shoes on my mind to come back for in the spring/summer, and felt so safe with the way the store was spaced out for COVID. Great work!!

I was skeptical about shopping for shoes online, but when I found out Playmakers had an online store I had to give it a shot. (Full disclosure: I worked for a happy decade at Playmakers back in the ‘80’s-‘90’s.) I was interested in the Hoka Toa One One shoes and hiking boots after reading a great review about them in a running magazine, but I couldn’t find them at any store near our new home in Minnesota. Then I thought, “Well, it IS Playmakers”, so I gave it a shot. And wow, was I impressed! First of all, there was real liv... read more

Business response:

Hi Jeanne! Wow! We are so glad we can still run in the same circle years later, and are thrilled to hear you love the Hoka Toa. We'd love it if you tagged us in photo once you get to test them out in the Minnesota snow :) Thank you for still shopping local!

I love that I was able to shop small. Customer service is amazing. I had purchased a pair of shoes online. The next morning I received an email that my purchase could not be completed as the online inventory and physical inventory was not the same. I was immediately reimbursed my money. I appreciate the fast and honest communication. I just decided to purchase a different pair. Love my new shoes and the new shop I will shop with from now on. 

Business response:

Hey Nikki - Thank you so much for the positive feedback and for shopping with us at Playmakers! Enjoy your holiday season 😀

Support your small, local business! They are amazing! Bought some running shoes back in Spring when the store was closed due to Covid. One of the workers FaceTime me, showed me all the shoes, went over pricing, and what would work best for me. They beat any competitors price by far. Bought another pair of running shoes on small business Saturday. The inventory was incorrect online and they called me immediately and upgraded me to the newer version for the same price (again beat any competitors price by far). I received my sh... read more

Business response:

Thank you so much for the kind words and feedback Carly! We are so happy to have you as a part of the Playmakers community. Happy running!

My mom and I went in yesterday in search of snow boots that fit over my 4 year old daughter’s wide AFO brace. She has to have two different sizes, and it’s very hard to find a boot that will go over the brace. Wolfe helped us and was so patient with my daughter. She had major brain surgery last September and her right leg/foot was affected. When it was determined that she would need two different sized Bog boots, Wolfe talked to the manager and she gave us a discount on the second pair. The boots were on clearance and after ... read more
