Who are we?

The Athlete's Foot in Downtown Columbus, Indiana is an independently owned franchise store. This allows us to meet our customers' needs and wants.

Established in July 2005, the technical shoe fitting store concept was shaped by Marty Arnett and Amy Macy.

During a personal training session, Marty and Amy were discussing the importance of proper footwear and how Columbus needs a type of retail store that would "fit" a person in the proper shoe. Therefore, an idea was born.

With hard work and the support of family and friends, The Athlete's Foot opened its doors July 8, 2005.

We pride ourselves on our FitPrint system and expertise in running and stability shoes. Staff members are trained in the FitPrint, types of shoes and orthotics and injury and medical needs. Our use of several major brands of technical running shoes and inserts as well as extensive size ranges allows us to customize the fit for most every individual's needs.

Feel free to stop by any location to satisfy YOUR specific needs. If you have questions about inventory or product availability, please pickup the phone and call us at 812-376-7780.
