Title: Utah runners--shoe store question Post by: Kelli on September 21, 2007, 01:40:48 pm Does anyone know where I can buy two different sized shoes? If I buy shoes to fit my right foot, I lose the toenails on my left foot. If I buy shoes to fit my left foot, the arches and ankle on my right foot hurt. I wish I were rich and could just buy 2 pairs, but, alas, I am married to a highway patrolman and am, therefore, anything but RICH!! My ideal would be to find a store that will sell me two different sizes, but i will take any other suggestions you have!!

What would he do with the remaining pair? However, it would not hurt to call the stores and see if by any chance they happen to have a solution for this. Maybe somehow by accident somebody lost a shoe of one size and of the other, and they do not know what to do with what they have left. Try Wasatch Running, Salt Lake Running Company, and Runner's Advantage. If you do not mind driving to Orem, you can also try Runner's Corner. There is also one in American Fork - 26.2 Running Company.

Most running stores will probably not have a problem with doing this for you because they just send back the mismatched pair.

I have been told that Runners Corner will also do it. I am going to give them a call before I drive there, don't want to waste my precious gas.
It does seem like a bad deal for the stores for sure, I have just heard that people have found places that do it (outside of Utah, of course). Maybe i will have to travel...
