Vancouver’s Running Store Since 1986

Great experience here! Listened exactly to what I wanted and how my feet felt. I have felt pressured at other locations so I’m super happy with how heard I felt.

So glad I stopped in here today for some new running shoes! Brandon helped me find exactly what I needed and I truly appreciate his knowledge and expertise in finding the right pair! Thank you so much – highly recommend coming here first if you’re looking for some new shoes! 😊 I’ll be back soon!

Five-Star Customer Service. I’ve been a customer for over 20 years. I recently bought a pair of shoes and noticed a minor issue with them after wearing them once. I called in and they went above and beyond over a very small detail to ensure I was happy. This level of Customer Service is unmatched in Vancouver. Thank you Forerunners.

— Matt Judd

The staff here is incredibly wonderful and helpful. I had some issues with one pair of shoes that I bought and they were happy to help fix or replace the shoes. I would recommend to anyone looking for some advice on your next running shoe.

I started buying my trainers at Forerunners in 1986 and have bought every pair there since. I’ve known Peter and Karen for almost that long. They and their staff are like visiting my family. We are lucky t be able to enjoy personal service and attention to detail we experience there.

My first experience buying running shoes at the store was amazing. the staff are very knowledgeable and helpful!

— Isabel Wood

Felt the midlife urge to do the marathon and went for a few runs and right away got pain in old shoes. Went to Forerunners and the helpful staff there, Ann-Marie, hooked me up with the perfect shoes and especially getting the right fit. First long run they feel great. They look so good you want to get out for a ride.

— Stephen Chan

Friendliest staff I’ve encountered. They helped me find exactly what I needed, asking the right questions and creating a relationship. I will definitely come back to get all my active goodies!
Highly recommend

I came in with no expectations and to browse trail shoes and came out with the perfect pair for my wide feet with low arches! The gentleman who helped me was extremely friendly, patient and so knowledgeable. He knew what shoes would be suitable for my feet and goals and showed me a variety without pressuring me in any way. I am truly amazed at the services.

— Katie Yk

A good selection of running shoes with friendly knowledgeable staff. They even brought in a color for me that they did not have in stock. Two thumbs up 👍🏼👍🏼

I first went to the Main Street store about 6 years ago and the service and product were amazing. This evening I showed up at closing on a Saturday looking for a new pair of On runners, and they invited me in with a smile, even though the door was locked. Another amazing experience – great selection, good prices, ultra friendly service. I will never go anywhere else – they’ve earned my loyalty. Thanks to the team there.

— Colin Edwards

Still thinking about the service I had here 3 days later. I’ve never had anything but excellent service at Forerunners. I have knee problems and small feet and the staff at every location I’ve been to, without fail, listen closely to my shoe needs and find me at least a couple of great options. Highly recommend!

— Catherine S

These guys are the real deal, they know what they are talking about and actually care about finding you the right fit. One of the salesmen spent an hour with me trying on every single shoe in the store until we found one that fit properly… his patience and expertise was so appreciated. Would definitely recommend this store

— Jessica De-Palma

Great advice and patience in guiding you to the appropriate shoe for you!

— Leonardo Camejo
