I'm relatively new to the area and am looking for a running store with experienced shoe experts. I've been wearing the same shoe for 4 years so for that time all I ever did was walk into a store and tell them the shoe/size and purchase. I'm looking for a place that will do true gait analysis and make recommendations (not looking for a guy to watch me walk on a treadmill and say "you pronate.")

I've only had some experience with Marathon Sports on Boylston but it's always crowded since it's kind of a tourist destination for runners (especially around this time of year.)

Any good experiences in the greater boston area?
