Great store. I appreciate their expertise and the fact that they can put you on a treadmill to help evaluate what type of shoe you might need. Good selection, including the more specialty shoes. Prices in line with the rest of the world. Certain better than anything that the Medford mall has to offer.

It was a great day when the this region finally got a store dedicated to runners. Before, the closest store was in Eugene. The owner, Hal Koerner, is a competitive racer and seems more often to be running around somewhere than in the store but his staff are also runners and give expert advice on shoes, clothing and tips for beginners and long-time runners. The store has a comprehensive selection of merchandise and you can find lots of gift items for the outdoor type. Check out the website for information on local races and the store-sponsored runs.

As Kevin S mentioned before, this store can be appreciated by all, not just runners. While it’s obviously a specialty runners’ store, the breadth of their knowledge makes their staff helpful to people from all walks of life. Unlike the minimum-wage drones at places such as Foot Locker and the like, the folks at RVR clearly know their sport, and what gear works. So whether you’re just working to get off the couch, or training up for your first marathon, RVR’s staff will get you outfitted properly. I can’t say it enough — their staff is ultra-friendly and helpful. If you’re in need of it, they also offer gait analysis as well. That way, you know for sure if the shoes you’re rocking are in fact appropriate for you. They have the usual selection of brands — Nike, Adidas, Brooks, Asics, Mizuno, Vibram, etc., as well as all manner of running apparel, as well as the various accessories a runner would need — knee braces, iPod slings, foam rollers, etc. Prices are generally competitive as well, which is a huge bonus. As much as it’s ideal to support local business, sometimes local businesses mark things up so much it’s hard not to look to Amazon instead. Fortunately, RVR keeps prices competitive, making it easy to choose to buy from them. Great store. My only quibble is that like most businesses in the area, their hours aren’t nearly as compatible with my late-rising schedule. They close way too early! But it’s a minor quibble given all the other positives.

Every trip back to Ashland must include a visit to this store. Excellent selection of running gear with extremely knowledgable staff.

You don’t need to be a runner to enjoy this store. But, if you are a runner, they have a fantastic selection of specialized running shoes and apparel that is hard to find elsewhere. Brands that bigger less dedicated places just don’t stock. There is a separate men and womens section along with accessories such as socks, hydration systems, power gels, etc. And, being in Oregon there is no sales tax! Yippie! The friendly staff know their stuff and seem to all be runners themselves. I bought a neat pair of inov-8 trail running shoes in the Black Friday sale, normally $ 100, at 30% off with no sales tax for $ 66, a freaking deal. Recommended.
