Thank you Gina for hanging with me to find a perfect shoe (and sandals too)! Great service, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Went to therapy and my therapist had on the same shoes. She said she has shopped at Dash since you were in the training center. Deserve the great reputation that you have. Love the socks too. :-)

Fantastic store with a very clean and welcoming atmosphere. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to understand my running habits, including my weekly mileage and the type of support and firmness I prefer in a shoe.

I tried on at least 10 different pairs across several brands, and with each pair, the employee clearly explained what I should expect in terms of feel and support. Their guidance made the process easy and informative without ever feeling rushed.

In the end, I walked out with a pair of shoes that not only fit my feet perfectly, but also matched exactly what I was looking for in comfort and support. From start to finish, I was in the store for maybe 30 minutes total, and it was a great experience overall.

Gina is outstanding! She helped my sister and me at the same time, and we were both looking for tennis shoes and sandals. We kept her running for sure, and she handled it with grace. She is knowledgeable, professional, energetic, and smiles through it all! We will definitely be back!

Having recently fractured my foot, my doctor recommended a more supportive tennis shoe, and I was happy to find the new Dash store which offered many options. I received awesome service from Connie. She was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and committed to helping me find the perfect shoe. I will definitely be back!

Connie was terrific! She listened to my needs and I was able to find the right shoes for me! Dash offers a great selection of bigger sized shoes so I don't have to go searching all over the place. I am one happy customer!

Best store for athletic shoes. Very knowledgeable staff. Nicolas was A+ in knowledge and helping me find the right shoes for my feet. And showed me socks that fit my feet. Only choice to shop for me
I stopped in today to purchase a pair of shoes I had on hold, but I ended up with a different pair. I bought Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25. I had a wonderful experience with Gina as we tried on several styles of Brooks shoes. She checked my gait and gave advice on support . She was very informative and kind and fun and patient, certainly not pushy! I really had a most wonderful purchasing experience with her. Stop in on a Wednesday (her only day working) and see for yourself!!
