ALTRA - natural foot shape and zero drop
Altra is maybe the original natural foot shape and zero-drop shoe brand? And it was created with passion in the basement of a Salt Lake city running store by our retail brother - Golden Harper.
Zero-drop refers to the lack of a height differential between the shoe's heel and toe area, meaning the bottom surface of your foot is parallel with the terrain - as you would be barefoot. Pretty cool!
Pukekohe Store
Simply the best experience I have ever had buying running shoes and have bought a fair few over the years. Trent in the Pukekohe store was outstanding. Will definitely be buying shoes again from there and recommending him to my friends.
Ray
Takapuna Store
The Takapuna store has always delivered great service. They focus on getting the right shoes for you with a smile. Recommend the store to anyone looking for comfortable sports shoes and clothing.

Thanks, Niel for your help. The new shoes are going to be perfect for the Auckland marathon. Maybe I will achieve a PB. I will drop off my race number for you to stick on the wall.

The email doesn't display the smileys, so here's some quick feedback. TJ at the Mt Eden store was awesome. Asked me questions, shared some of his story, and gave me options. he wasn't at all pushy, just very helpful and engaging.
Kind regards.

I have already provided positive feedback to the Newmarket store before. Ray at Newmarket is just so darn helpful!!
I went in a few months back for new shoes and one of his lovely team members drove all the way to Mt Eden while I waited to get my size.
I then wanted a second pair and he dropped it over to my house to save a trip. I am just amazed!!
Honestly never have I had such excellent customer service.
You guys are really lucky to have him and the Newmarket team- always so friendly too.
Great work and thank you.

My wife and I appreciate the service of Ray this afternoon. He brought out the shoes I was seeking efficiently and provided helpful information while I tried each out. The outcome was a decision made within his finishing the fitting. He was pleasant and shared his experiences with us without in any way directing our choice. He also revealed that I was entitled to 'specials' on the shoes.
A very satisfying purchase.

I was contacted by TJ from the Mt Eden store today after I had emailed, advising my shoes were spent, from all my walking during this Covid-19 crisis.
Just want to share the great service I received, and I'm happily walking around in my new shoes today - one day's service, how cool is that woohoo!!!!!
Thank you so much for everything, from one happy customer!
Kind Regards
