Road Runner Sports, Paramus

Over its lifespan of more than 30 years, Road Runner has practically perfected the art of matching runners with the perfect shoe. Just as Prince Charming knew to match the glass slipper with Cinderella's stained-glass toenails, Road Runner finds the perfect fit thanks to its Shoe Dog fitting system, which matches users' goals to the function of their stride - including arch type, foot flexibility and any imbalances - to find a suitable model. The result is a uniquely personalized shoe-shopping experience. Runners who join Road Runners VIP Club even get 90-days to test run their shoes, completely risk free. Besides running, walking, and cross-training shoes, the company also stocks athletic socks, electronic fitness gear, and training accessories—making it a destination where runners can prepare for a complete workout.
