Gazelle Sports Birmingham — Local services in Birmingham

I have been looking for shoes for my gout ravaged feet for weeks with no luck. Either the wrong size, not at all cushioned or not available and on and on. Then I discovered Gazelle Sports in Birmingham and it's salesperson Chris. At that point, the clouds parted and the voices began to sing...I was finally in right place. Chris was awesome! He listened closely to my concerns, asked me what I did for a living to get a better idea of which shoes to recommend and when he felt he had all the information he needed he excused himself, was gone for just a few minutes and came back with at least 7 different shoes he thought might be good for me. As soon as I tried on the first pair, I knew Chris understood exactly what I needed. I tried on each pair and loaded with questions Chris answered each one...comprehensively and completely. He's also a really nice guy...fun to b.s. with. Anyway, I found a pair of Brooks shoes that Chris recommended and for the first time in at least 3 years I had no pain in my previously very hurty feet. I haven't been as excited as I was with my new shoes since I was a child on Christmas! So blessed to have had Chris work with me. If you need sport shoes/apparel go to Gazelle and be sure to...

Incredible. I love me some Hansen's but hadn't checked this spot out and glad I did. For context, I've only visited 1x (yesterday) but the experience (thank you Margaret) alone drove me to write this.

Goal: Running shoes for my 13-year old son (secondarily running shoes for me). MARGARET to the rescue!!!

Margaret was incredibly patient with both of us. Through throughout the process from inspecting our old shoes, to measurement, to assessing gait both walking and on the treadmill (including recording the treadmill sessions to compare). I've never been more impressed in a running-focused store. We are committed to Gazelle sports and thank you Margaret!

Occasionally I use brick and mortars to physically inspect goods and then bounce online for price comparisons and potential purchase. If there is a premium on price, if you received a fraction of the service I did, I hope you'll consider buying gear at...

We went to Gazelle sports in Birmingham for a particular pair of Sports shoes that would be helpful with my husband’s foot issue. I feel very lucky that the person helping us named Margaret was extremely helpful. She had an indepth knowledge of the inventory in various shoes, measured our feet to see what size we actually needed, found a pair of shoes that actually fit my husband better than the pair that we had reserved for him. She brought out multiple pairs of shoes for me to try on since I also have a foot issue and was buying shoes. She was terrific. From what I could tell the other sales people in there were also excellent. We highly recommend this store and thank Margaret publicly for helping us both to be fitted with the proper athletic shoes! Plus, they have a very extensive stock of shoes, some of which are not on display. They also have top-of-the-line athletic clothing that...
