I drove all the way up to Beverly from Acton because this is one of the only stores in the area that has Gor-Tex running shoes, and definitely by far the best selection. The owner spent nearly an hour with me, bringing me every Gor-Tex and Clima-Shield shoe they have, from the big running brands like Brooks, New Balance and Saucony to more trail oriented brands (they now have a whole section of the store devoted to trail running and hiking) like Salomon, Montrail (now owned by Columbia) and Hoka. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable about running shoes, and from hearing conversations with other customers, it was clear that his staff is as well. I would highly recommend this store to any runner, from the serious marathoner to the casual weekender.
