Q:  How often should I replace my running shoes?
A: 
Running shoes under normal circumstances, should be replaced every 6-8 months or 500-600 miles.  This is because the material used in the midsole for cushioning tends to compress resulting in a less cushioned ride.

Q:  How does the sizing of athletic footwear compare to that of dress shoes?

Some people do just fine when walking in running shoes.  People who require a shoe with a maximum amount of cushioning tend to prefer running shoes for walking.  Overall though, it varies from individual to individual.     

Q:  My toes hurt after running and I sometimes get black toe nails, what should I do?
A: 
It is not uncommon for people to wear their shoes too small and not be aware of it.  As a matter of fact, we come across this problem frequently.  It is important to leave adequate room from the end of the longest toe to the front of the shoe for movement caused by running and swelling.  In addition, wearing the right width helps to alleviate this problem.  Please refer to our finding the proper fit page for more information.

Q:  When is the best time to buy running shoes?
A: 
The best time to purchase running shoes in during the afternoon or evening.  At the end of the day, your feet are swollen.  This makes finding the right size easier.
