Men's House Shoe
What is a men’s house shoe? Honestly, it’s just a different term for the slipper. But here’s the thing, we get many men coming through our doors for a House Shoe. These house-shoes run a dual purpose…yes, it is nice in the winter to keep your feet warm, but more than that, many individuals need the arch support even when just tooling around in their homes or garage.

Either way, choosing the clothing that will be the most comfortable to run in, for wicking sweat, movement, and posibly peeling off when too many layers have been worn, choosing the right sock, and choosing the best shoe will make all the difference in how you train and ultimately race.

Ever Wonder What Those Pesky Shoe and Foot Terms Mean?
Wading through all the shoe terms floating around these days can be daunting.

So, here we’re providing you with just that… (hint: There are so many more than what we provide to you below.
