"How they're striking down on the treadmill," said Sims. "We look for neutrality, over-pronation or supination. Based off of what we see from the gait analysis, we can recommend what type of shoe would be great for them," said Sims.

Mindi Kane has owned shoe stores in the past, and she's been running Northbrook's Payton Rose shop for more than a year, but Sole Mates is her first retail venture with husband Brian. It's only fitting they would call it Sole Mates.

Mindi's shops face each other on opposite ends of the Dunbrook Shopping Center at Dundee and Pfingsten roads. While Payton Rose specializes in elegant and affordable women's clothing, Sole Mates offers offers shoes to complete the outfit.

"We aim to please, we're not going to get things that people don't wear," Mindi said. "We want you to be comfortable. We want you to look good."

To celebrate its recent opening, Sole Mates offers shoppers 25 percent off items in the store until Thursday. Customers can get an additional five percent off by liking the store's Facebook page.

Mindi says most items at Sole Mates range between $28 and $100, and includes brands that may be hard to find at other nearby shoe stores.

Brian and Mindi live in Northbrook, and are Glenbrook alums — Brian went to GBN and Mindi attended GBS.

This is a classic slingback with a 4-inch heel. It's available up to a size 14, though the customer reviews say it runs a little small. That's not usually an issue with the shoes from Fitzwell,Save on Christian Louboutin Pump! All the Sales, All in One Place. a brand I forgive its punny name mostly because I actually love puns. Not all Fitzwell shoes go up to a 14 but enough of them do that I'd consider this a go-to brand for large shoe sizes.

The Fitzwell shoes tend to be really lovely, if not cutting edge in style. There are other heels out there -- especially if you're looking for dramatic stuff. Basically, if you're looking for hot shoes, check out Pleaser. This brand can be seen in goth clubs and strip clubs around the world. There's some Pleaser shoes on Zappos, but you might wind up finding them locally, especially if you have a well-stocked "adult store" in your location. (There are several in Orlando so I've lost my sense of whether or not adult stores are, like, hard to find in other places. There are even radio jingles: Premier Adult Factory Outlet -- takes you where you want to go!" Anyway.)
