Does anyone know of any running shoe stores in The Villages area? Specifically stores that might carry Asics or New Balance or Saucony or Brooks.

I know that Bealls carries Asics and New Balance. Not sure of the other brands.

The best running shoe store that I found in The Villages is:
Foot Solutions of The Villages
980 Del Mar Dr
in the Spanish Springs Town Square

They have the shoes that you mentioned (including Brooks which is not sold everywhere).
They are shoe experts and do a fine job ensuring you are measured correctly for the right brand and shoe.

Good luck.

My daughter just bought running shoes, the store has a short running tract and a tread mill with video to see your gate. she bought asis, BUT the store was in St Petersburg, we were there to see the Chihuly exhibit, ate at a sidewalk cafe, made a day of it, also near the Dali museum which has a Picasso exhibit right now. It may be worth a trip!!

Dick's Sporting Goods and Sports Authority are both located just west of I-75 at the Ocala Rte 200 exit, which is 25 miles north of Wildwood. It's about a 35 minute drive from my home in TV. Also Shoe Biz located in the shopping center by Best Buy and Bed, Bath & Beyond has a lot of hard to find shoes.

Since I started having problems with my feet I needed wider golf shoes, I had heard that Asics was one of the most comfortable golf shoes you could buy. I eventually had to go online to find the Asics golf shoes, and they were right, the best golf shoe I've ever own. I now have two pairs, they were only sold on Golfgalaxy.com and on eBay.

I was just in Shoe Biz yesterday (the branch in the Best Buy shopping center). I know they had Brooks, Saucony and New Balance. Not sure about Asics.
