I just bought a new pair of running shoes from Culture Athletics, and their selection and staff made the whole experience amazing. As a newer runner, finding the right shoe can be challenging, but their team made it fun. They really take the time to understand your needs and help you find the perfect fit. Incredible customer service!!

Came in as a brand new runner looking for a good pair of shoes. Left with a perfect pair, custom to my own needs with some helpful tips and tricks about starting my running journey! Wonderful staff and great product, keep it up!

Omg I’m blown away by this store’s service! Absolutely fantastic. Bought a pair of shoes this morning online and had my shoes delivered in the gta this evening. Never had delivery this seamless before. Highly recommend this store. Will definitely buy again from here. Thank you !

Nigel, Sarah, and the entire Culture team are incredibly knowledgeable, and their store is stocked with everything a runner could need. Beyond just great gear, they’ve built an amazing community that has helped running thrive in the East End. Their support and passion jumpstarted my own running journey, introducing me to countless inspiring people along the way.

Culture Athletics is an amazing store for all things running and athletics in Toronto. Everyone I have interacted with at Culture Athletics is friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. It is evident that the owners, Nigel and Sarah, care about the local community and fostering an inclusive environment for their group runs.

Definitely the best running store in town! They really make you feel unique and welcome since the moment you get in! Last weekend I got my first shoes in Culture, actually I bought two pairs! Thanks to my shoe expert Amy :) , I wasn't sure what I was looking for but she made sure I found the right shoes for my needs!

Horrible service and unfriendly staff. Went in expecting knowledgeable staff (like Running Room or Blacktoe), and was unpleasantly surprised to encounter the opposite. It's like they tried to not sell me shoes. Disappointing first experience. They had a poor selection in my size as well (women's 8/8.5 which is pretty run of the mill). Will not be returning.

    Hi Andrea, I’m so sorry to hear about the awful experience you had with us! I assure you this isn’t the norm. With that, I was wondering if you’d have time to chat further about the details of what happened so I can do what I can to make it right and assure it doesn’t happen again. Thanks, Nigel
