Resources for Student Athletes

SHOES-n-FEET Running believes in community partnerships, and this extends to residents of all ages. Student athletes are an inspiring part of our community, and we use our expertise to help local families, high schools and colleges provide the best care to their young players.

School sport seasons tend to be short and high intensity, so overuse injuries are common and costly as downtime eats into a season very quickly; even a small problem like a blister can have a big impact.

Our staff looks out for the best interest of these motivated and dedicated student athletes. We work for them – their foot health, their comfort, their overall wellbeing – not for commission. We provide young athletes with a place to go where they can be educated about the importance of properly fitted equipment, like footwear, socks and arch supports, in the role of injury prevention. Furthermore, if more complicated needs arise, we connect them to trusted medical professionals in the area.
