I stopped in just to look. Ended up buying two pair of shoes. Good selection and the sales clerk Honey was sooooo helpful and nice. I will go back and send my friends. Shop locally made easy.

This is one of the best local shops in Payson and Rim Country. Do NOT let the name fool you, this isn't just a shop for runners. Everyone who enjoys the outdoors and likes exploring around Rim Country needs to at least poke their head into this shop and say hi to Margaret and/or Honey. They are passionate, extremely knowledgeable about their products, and will help you any way they can.Looking for shoes? They got you covered. Area maps and trail recommendations? They can help with that. Quick-grab yummy trail snacks? There's some for you to grab inside. Also locally made stickers, and a selection of sunglasses. Great shop, great staff.

Remember those good ol' days (before Amazon) where you walk into a specially store and talk to an expert sales person who knows their stuff and actually CARES about their customers because they know their reputation is at stake? This store is just as good as all the reviews. My son is taking a backpacking trip through Asia this summer and wanted some good hiking shoes that would work well in a humid/wet environment and we found the perfect shoes. Thank you so much

Honey helped me find my shoes that I love! Their name is Altra and they are great for bunions. They have a great arch support, and a hard thing inside so you don’t feel rocks, great for running, hiking, walking. They are wide at the top like our feet are, and no heel so your foot is level. They felt like slippers like she said! I was only wearing sandals that formed to my feet, I couldn't find any other shoe that didn't cause pain since I have bunions and high arches. Also, since I have Multiple Chemical Sensitively, it felt hopeless to find shoes that worked for me. I had absolutely no reaction to them so apparently they don't have harmful chemicals in them either! I have now bought two more pairs. I found my store, found my shoes! Yahoo!

This store is the real deal - owned by actual runners who spend time out there in the rugged desert! I came in with blisters from hiking the AZT and Honey helped me out. Thank you!

Just bought my running shoes here for the first time and I won't be going anywhere else. I was anticipating a long process of trying on different pairs of shoes, but Margaret knows what she's doing and had me in and out in less than a half hour. She asked me a few questions about my running, looked at my gait, and found me the most comfortable pair of running shoes I've ever worn, all in my price range! Looking forward to getting back into running so I can come back and buy more gear from Rim Runners. Thanks, Margaret!

I hiked the Arizona Trail in 2021. My hiking shoes had over 400 miles and the inserts were wearing out. I was resupplying in Payson and stumbled on the Rim Runners store. The owner recommended a particular form of inserts so I bought them. She also is a hiker/runner. The inserts were so wonderful. My feet were very happy for the remaining 400+ miles. I was very impressed. I would highly recommend this store!

Such an awesome store! Honey the manager is super knowledgeable and so so nice. She helped 3 of our 4 group purchase some very needed new hiking/running shoes that we put to the test the next day. Highly recommend this store for the great customer service!
