ABOUT US

The story of Walk the Coast began in 2003. Chiropractor, Dr. Brent Manson, wanted to research comfort footwear options that were good for the body. He knew that his patients and people he saw were wearing footwear that was causing them pain. When the options were lacking in the Alberni Valley he decided to open a store with his wife Stacey. As they were preparing the store Sarah Jones, a certified pedorthist came along and added her own style and expertise. Stacey has always enjoyed the shopping experience. She loves predicting trends and make them work for people. She gets excited about buying shoes, boots, bags and clothing for you the customer. Walk the Coast is able to find great shoes and clothing sourced from right here in Canada to around the world. They are proud to offer the broadest selection of footwear on Vancouver Island. Almost 15 years later, we still look for proper biomechanics and quality when selecting footwear. Walk the Coast’s staff keep up to date on all the latest trend and technology changes in footwear. They are able to give the best advice for your feet and footwear choices, giving customers a true shoe fitting experience. Stacey and Sarah continue to love bringing cool new footwear and clothing to Walk the Coast. The store has developed into a premiere destination shopping experience on Vancouver Island. Walk the Coast has and will continue to evolve to provide the most up to date fashions for its customers in footwear and clothing. From hikers to high heels, they do it all.
