Ellie Penner, Sole Dimensions, and Janice Williams, celebrity cashier, broke ground last year for a new retail center where Sole Dimensions will relocate this summer 2020.
The new store will be open seven days a week. Hours will be Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Fridays 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., Thursdays 10 a.m. – 8 p.m., Saturdays 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Sundays 12 pm – 4 p.m.
Sole Dimensions will be one of the first tenants in the new Forestville Square retail building (across the street from Heritage High School) being developed by Robert Shaar. Shaar has developed other local retail centers including the buildings that house buku Wake Forest, Wine & Beer 101 Wake Forest and Wake Forest Smiles Family Dentistry.
Sole Dimensions, a specialized retail shoe store with products that help maximize sports performance and relieve foot pain, currently occupies 1,500-square-feet at 10560 Ligon Mill Road, Suite 101. In its new location, Sole Dimensions will double in space to 3000 square feet.
Penner, a Certified Pedorthist who opened her Wake Forest business in 2009, offers foot assessments and comprehensive plans to improve patients’ ability to walk, run and move pain-free and sells running shoes as well as lifestyle footwear including sandals, casual, and dressy shoes.
She offers specialized services that attract clients from Virginia, South Carolina and as far away as Florida. The new, more visible location will give Wake Forest and the surrounding area better access to Penner, whose customers call her the “foot whisperer.”
“The new location of Sole Dimensions will allow us to add more employees, expand our orthotic lab, include a kid’s corner and sell more comfort-brand shoes,” Penner said.
