I enquired over email about a new pair or running shoes; it was great that Run and Become had details of my last purchase and were able to advise me on what the current equivalent was. I was able to order online and received my new Brooks in a couple of days. A great service.

Another visit to Run and Become, another brilliant pair of new running trainers. They’re my fifth or sixth pair courtesy of the store’s brilliant expertise and patience. Every pair’s kept me running happily and healthily without injuries, thanks to the gait analysis and trainer choices best suited to my wonky ways. I can’t recommend this place enough. They really know their stuff.

Excellent experience. The salespeople really took their time and were knowledgeable. They watched how I ran outside and choose shoes to try on accordingly. It was a bit crowded on Saturday late afternoon but they have a ticket system so you can just take a ticket and wait. Highly highly recommended

Expert staff (and friendly). Good range of shoes. Recommended. Busy on Saturday… so go during the week if possible. You can now book a fitting slot online too!

Great store all round. Picked up marathon shoes here, excellent range and very knowledgeable staff who helped guide the choice. Really good overall experience.

Run and Become is the best store for running gear and advice on the right product for you. I’ve been using them for over 20 years and their service is always extremely helpful and polite. It’s a waste of time and money buying the wrong shoes for your needs, you can always rely on them as an independent to recommend the best for you.

I've been buying shoes and kit from Run and Become for over 20 years. Can't fault them in any way.

Are there enough good words to write about my experience at Run and Become? I don't think so. Came in today as a beginner runner and had the best service I could have asked by a lady called Suputri. Super kind, intelligent and clearly an experienced runner who knows her stuff. Left feeling well equipped for my running journey.

As usual, the service has been exemplary. I've ordered online and been to the shop, both on several occasions and the help and advice have always been superb. It's never been a case of having specific products pushed but it's always about what works for YOU and any specific training you might be doing. Whether you're a seasoned runner or a newbie, the staff always have solid advice and if you can, do book a gait analysis!

I have used Run and Become before for new running shoes, and when i needed a new pair for this year they did not disapoint. Great price and the best delivery service i can remember. Will definatly go back to them again and next time i'm in London will visit the shop 10/10 and one happy runner.

Fast shipping. Happy with products, socks, suppliments and vest. Will certainly shop with them again. Great brick and mortar store too.

Fantastic shop where the staff are always very helpful. The past two times I have been there I have been served by Michelle whose service is excellent. Can’t recommend enough.
