What Our Customers Are Saying On Google

When she helped me, she was patient, understanding, and incredibly supportive. She didn’t rush me or treat me like just another customer passing through. Instead, she made me feel comfortable, heard, and respected.
It’s rare to meet someone in retail who genuinely loves what they do and cares so deeply about people — but Lola is one of those people. I will be returning to buy my shoes from her, and I hope others have the chance to experience her compassion and professionalism as well.

FAQ: Choosing Comfort Footwear
When deciding between Hoka, UGG, and Birkenstock, consider what you want from premium comfort footwear.
If you do a lot of walking or standing, the Hoka shoe is the better choice.
Birkenstock footwear has an anatomically supportive arch and a contoured cork footbed that molds to your foot over time, so it’s a good option for customers with bunions or arthritis.
UGGS are known for their signature sheepskin and soft materials, and would be the best option for casual wear, especially in California, where there are cooler nights.
Our team can help determine which brand is best for your lifestyle and foot health needs.
Yes! Many of our Central Valley Customers wear their Birkenstocks year-round. The cork-latex footbed in Birkenstock allows for breathability in warmer months and layering with socks in colder weather.
Hoka’s oversized midsoles provide high-level cushioning without added weight, creating a floating feeling that reduces stress on your joints and muscles. Hoka’s unique Meta-Rocker design encourages a smoother running stride. We find that customers recovering from injuries or managing long-term foot problems appreciate Hoka’s extra cushioning.
Although their classic boot style was originally popular for cold weather, UGG now offers an assortment of year-round styles. UGG’s genuine sheepskin naturally regulates body temperature. It keeps your feet warm in winter and cool in summer through the sheepskin’s superior moisture-wicking properties.
Yes. One of the most popular services we offer at our Feet for Life stores in Visalia and Bakersfield is personalized orthopedic footwear fittings.
Several brands specialize in helping alleviate specific foot issues:
- For Morton’s Neuroma, Hoka’s spacious toe box and cushioned midsole help distribute pressure off the forefoot, and Birkenstock’s arch support helps redirect weight away from the irritated area.
- For Metatarsalgia, both Hoka and Birkenstock provide excellent metatarsal relief through superior cushioning and anatomical support.
- For Neuropathy, UGG’s soft and seamless interior will not irritate the skin, and Hoka’s plush cushioning will provide protective padding.
Our experienced staff will be happy to suggest the perfect combination of footwear and orthotics for you.
