Customer photo review of Hoka Gaviota 6 Women's Running Shoe - Birch/Yellow Gold
AnnaVerified
Had an in-store gait analysis with Dominic, which was hugely helpful and beneficial. Had a selection of trainers to try on that were suitable for my gait and needing a supportive arch. I could have easily chosen three of the pairs but the Hokas felt so comfortable. Already had a couple of runs in them and Dominic nailed the advice on sizing and socks. Brilliant service, will return when I need my next pair!

Customer photo review of Altra Experience Flow 2 Women's Running Shoe - Black/Light Blue+1
AmandaVerified
The owner & the staff in The Running Outlet in Canterbury are so helpful & knowledgeable. I was struggling with the newer model of my current running trainers & they advised me on what might work & let me try them on the treadmill. I ended up leaving with a pair of the Altra Experience Flow. You will pay a bit more for your trainers in here than online but nothing beats being able to actually test trainers before you buy them & they do give running club discounts. It’s nice to support a local bu...

Not tried magnet bib pins before and was nervous to try them for a marathon but they worked better than expected and will definitely continue to use them for my races!!

Customer photo review of Vibram FiveFingers KSO Men's Running Shoe - Black/Yellow
Mr Martin WVerified
Been after these shoes for awhile so it was great to find a store that stocked them. They do take time to get use to and you do have to break them in so don't think you can run straight away in them. They're super lightweight and feel like you re barefoot but when you walk outside you have all the protection you would with a normal shoe. Your friends won't want to be seen with you though :D

Straight from packaging to wear for Cambridge half marathon. Light weight, kept me cool and didn’t feel was wearing a top. Will definitely be buying more in different colours.

I already have a pair of these trainers and they are extremely comfortable and lightweight. Found out that they also do the same trainer that's waterproof. Ordered them one day at 12.30 and they arrived by the early afternoon the next day. Incredibly efficient and wonderful and helpful staff.

Love these! Perfect for tempo and interval runs and probably for the odd long run when you need an extra boost

The service from Running Outlet was outstanding. I ordered the trainers and they arrived the following day and free delivery as well. The Adidas Adizero 4 are fantastic to run in. I love them. I have 3 pairs of carbon plated trainers on rotation and the Adidas Adizero 4 are my favourite pair.

Had an issue with the bottle in the running vest when it arrived. I sent an email asking for a replacement, they replied immediately and the replacement arrived the next day which was Christmas Eve. Outstanding service. Thank you 🙏

I had a great experience in the Canterbury shop. The young lady who took me through the gait analysis and shoe recommendation really knew her stuff which I found tremendously reassuring. I was a little disappointed that the Black Friday discount shown online wasn’t applied to this trainer (I didn’t realise until I got home) but the service was excellent.

Poor Delivery - Excellent service! ***** 5 Stars, sadly I was let down by DHL who lost my order, they gave me a delivery date then lost my order. Despite Dom from The Running Outlet trying to find my delivery, it still remained missing at DHL. Unable to source a replacement my refund was forthcoming - thank you. Great Service from The Running Outlet who've been let down by DHL and are now out of pocket as a result.

Mrs picked these out whilst I was browsing and I ordered them for her. She loves them, come with a nice box and soft cover. Delivery was super quick so what's not to love. Fantastic product and service

Very easy ordering process and arrived much quicker than original estimates (basically dispatched the day after I ordered them!). Arrived in time to test at Parkrun & may have helped me get fastest time this year! Highly recommend.

Dominic was exceptional. He really explained every step of the gate analysis and took time to make sure I chose the right pair of trainers for my need. Recommended to my friend who has already been to the store and bought herself trainers!

Found it really interesting and informative. Would like to have had a printed sheet of all the analysis and the trainers I tried in the session, to enable me to refer back to in the future

I’m a 9 in most running trainers but the medium size fit perfect. My feet felt cool after 7 mile run and didn’t notice the socks being damp. Good product will be buying more.

I switched from the Hoka Bondi to the Clifton after advice from various sources and confirmed by The Running Outlet. I’m a 6.5 in the Bondi but 6 in the Clifton as they adjusted their sizing. First jog/walk in them of about 50 mins all good ✅

Nervous about ensuring I can run properly and having good shoes is fundamental to that. The shop assistant was very friendly in bringing out different options and this one particularly felt comfortable, with bounce and cushion and body feels more lightweight when running. Highly recommend.

Arrived the next day. Very impressed. This is my 6th pair of new balance 860 and are perfect to support my feet. I’m not a runner but a walker and these shoes help with knee and hip problems. Would highly recommend

Staff were amazing and found us exactly what we wanted. These trainers are so comfortable that I refer to them as 'feet clouds'. Good bounce and stability for long runs. ☺️

Speedy service from The Running Outlet - Balega socks arrived very quickly and as ordered, after there was initially a query whether one colour was in stock. My wife has used Balega for many years and they've been great, although not always easy to get hold of due to their popularity - supply levels across a number of outlets including the Balega website never seems to match demand. Look foirward to using The Running Outlet again.

Tyson very helpful on the phone and then in person. As an older lady 62, I have run all my life so know what I need. Saucony. However offered treadmill analysis etc but felt my mileage so low now not necessary. I have bought from this company since it started. They are straight up and do an honest job.

Great experience, our first purchase of XC running spikes. Sized up by half a size. Initially worried they were too small but they are just close filling by design. My daughter has narrow feet though so I imagine they wouldn’t be good on wide feet. Apparently very comfortable to wear and worked well on a muddy cross country race. Great service, speedy postage.

I am delighted with these trainers. Its so hard to get wide fit in a good choice of colour/size. Easy to order and arrived promptly. Fit is perfect. So comfortable. Haven't ran in them yet as keeping for winter running. Very happy with my purchase

Do exactly what you need a pair of sunglasses to do. Comfortable fit and they don't move around when running. Light enough that you can forget you're even wearing them

Excellent glasses, look great. React to light. Good for Scottish weather when sun can be weak or suddenly strong. Pink ones are a lovely colour frame. Slightly wider fit than my previous Sunwise glasses but still a good fit.

I wanted a pair of walking /running trainers which I actually liked the look of too . These are perfect . I looked for ages to find what I wanted and these did not disappoint . Comfortable from the first wear . They are light and very supple with good grip on the soles so will be perfect for what I want them for .

Was happy to be able to buy these from an independent running shop when my local one didn't have them in stock, great price and speedy shipping. Love these trainers, this is my second pair of Provision 8s and one of many pairs of Altras, saved my running after being diagnosed with a neuroma. Thanks,The Running Outlet!

These guys went above and beyond for my order. The original size was too tight, they duly organised a full swap at no extra cost. Cannot recommend these enough! Thank you guys

Great trail shoes for most types of terrain, (less good on mud), but great for longer distances and with superb cushioning which still allows the feeling of ground contact, unlike some of the other 'super cushioned' shoes. This is my fifth pair of these shoes!

My second pair and I believe the new ones are even better as lighter weight.Fit is perfect and I wore for first time on a 6k run and were perfect.

They work as good as pins but without the holes in your race vest. With the added bonus of being much easier to get your number in the correct place and adjust it.
