Running Shoe Specialists. Achilles Heel started in 2000 and was based in Decourcys Arcade in the West End of Glasgow. They gradually expanded and eventually moved to larger premises where they are now located on Great Western Road.

The name Achilles Heel came about after the owner, Katie Alexander ruptured her achilles during a marathon. The name of the shop is a permanent reminder along with the huge scar to go with it.
