Shoes & Brews

"Great running store and brewery in downtown Longmont. Really good shoe selection (comparable to or a bit better than Fleet Feet) and helpful workers. They put on great races as well (Sole Mates 5k in the fall is definitely worth doing). The brewery part is really nice as well with a mix of in-house beers and beers from other local breweries. They have a cool promotion where you run an 800 and the cost of your first beer is your 800 time."

"Kim was very knowledgeable and helpful finding a running shoe. This was my first time being sized or trying on quality shoes- no pressure to buy, rather education on proper shoe fitting."

"Kim was a great help with a new pair of running shoes for a new runner. We hung around for a beer and to watch the game. The blueberry wheat was delicious! Good selection. Can't wait to go back."

"The environment is so welcoming and the aesthetics of the place is the best. Everything was nice and organized. There are fitting rooms available for the apparel and the service was friendly. Connor helped me out today, made the experience here even more enjoyable."

"In town visiting, friends suggested I stop in. In the front of the store you have a large running store: just about everything one would need to get out and pound the pavement, including store logo themed clothing. Of the running stores visited in Northern CO, this is probably at the top of my list. In the back of the store, there is tap room, where Shoes & Brews had a couple of their own brews shown as well as another 10-12 taps of local breweries. The tap room had a big bar as well as several tables. The two stores are separated, but you can get between through a door. The store hosts a running club, and they host several races annually. Also I was please to see a ‘800m’ speed ranking board. It would be fun to compete if I lived in the area."
