GET EXPERTLY FITTED, YOUR PERFECT FIT ZONE EXPERIENCE

Want to run pain-free? Decrease your race times? Increase your weekly mileage faster? Correct your running form? Of course you do, and that's exactly what a free, expert-level fitting delivers. It's the reason runners come from all over Santa Monica, Venice, West LA, and greater Los Angeles County to get fitted at our Santa Monica store. Learn more about the Perfect Fit Zone, or start online with our Virtual Fit Finder.

Here's how your Perfect Fit Zone fitting works, start to finish, in under 10 minutes:

1. Talk with a Fit Expert. Tell us your fitness goals, your typical mileage, and any aches or pains, from nagging knees to plantar pain to shin splints.

2. See how you move with a video gait and stride analysis. We capture a full video analysis of your gait and stride, both standing (static) and moving (dynamic), so we can see exactly how your foot strikes and how you pronate.

3. Get a 3D foot scan. Our Fit Finder 3D foot scanner, powered by Footbalance, measures both feet in seconds: size, length, width, arch height, instep, and heel width. You'll leave knowing more about your feet than you ever imagined.

4. Get personalized recommendations. Your Fit Expert matches your scan and gait to the right shoes from 100+ brands, with no guessing and no sales pressure.

5. Get fitted for custom insoles. We heat-mold custom insoles to the exact contours of your feet, on the spot, for hundreds less than orthotics.

6. Dial in your socks and complete your fit. Finish with the right R-Gear sock cushion and height for your stride.

This is expert-level, health-based fitting, and it's free when you shop in-store. Every fitting is backed by our 90-Day Perfect Fit Guarantee, so you can put your shoes, socks, and insoles to the test for a full 90 days. Not your perfect fit? We'll help you find the right pair or refund your money.
