“The best local shoe shopping experience in Anchorage, Alaska ever! The staff really have knowledge on different products, and show they really care about you finding shoes that meet your needs. It’s soooo important to have amazing customer service, when the product you sell can be purchased online / Amazon. Skinny Raven Sports makes me happy to shop local.”
“I rented an Arctic Oven hot tent and propane heater for an Anchorage to Thompson Pass ski/ sled trip and was so impressed with their customer service. My last-minute booking was accommodated and staff worked with me to find a tent that would best suit my trip and timing. I was so grateful for the early pick-up and drop-off flexibility too. The tent and heater were packed in a super convenient tote that made set-up and transportation very easy. I would absolutely recommend Alaska Outdoor Gear Rental for locals and visitors alike!”

“We just headed into Anchorage to find info on where to fish, and what to fish with. Blake, Charles and Tabatha went out of their way to help us pick out the best (reasonable) gear for our needs… Blake hooked us up with guides to contact for fly fishing and Halibut fishing. Having personal recommendations is the best way to feel confident hiring someone to teach you the ropes and show you where to go.
Charles found us the best gear and Blake helped tremendously with tackle. There are just way too many choice for a novice fisherman to pick the correct items on their own.
Tabatha made sure the rod and reel cases I chose fit the gear correctly, so I didn’t end up half way to Homer and not have the right stuff. Even her husband helped us with information and finding gear.
Many thanks to the crew at this sporting goods store. They have a high selection, fair prices and excellent service.
They ship too, so if you need any type of fishing gear or rain gear and accessories, contact them, you won’t be disappointed!

“Found my son last minute Wrestling gear for school. I was very impressed with the young men running the store. The one that helped us the most also happen to be on a high school wrestling team and was able to help my son to get him excited for the sport. I was really surprised at how much wrestling gear they had in stock, both new and used.”
“Great service! Still have my first set I bought this day. Thank you so much, they were so helpful and I learned a lot. Now I can play both left and right handed.”
“Incredibly well curated selection of women's bike clothing, as well as a great range of casual clothes with a focus on smaller independent brands like Ripton, Shredly, Youer, and more. You can tell that a lot of thought has gone into each item in the shop and the owner is very knowledgeable about local trails + best places to bike! Definitely worth a visit!”
“Alaska Discount Outfitters is a hidden gem! The store is fully stocked with quality outdoor gear and clothing at very reasonable prices. What really sets this place apart is the owner—so kind, helpful, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He takes the time to educate you rather than just trying to sell you things you don’t need. A great place for both beginners and seasoned adventurers. Highly recommend!”
“I am very impressed by The North Face. They recently honored their warranty on a product that was causing me some issues. The customer service was reasonable and effective.”
“One of the biggest and best local locations for work wear and safely rated gear in the state, carrie name brands such as Carhartt & Grundéns they have everything you'll need for a long work week on the slope and a rainy day on the boat. Stop in have a look around and font be afraid to ask the friendly staff there always happy to help even with the little things!”
“Outstanding service and representation by the staff, answering every question I had with above and beyond service. I must especially thank a young woman by the name of Emily, as she not only helped me find the rain gear I was looking for but also the sizes I needed from the back, as well as a few items I didn't think of while I was there filling out my gear for this coming commercial fishing season. It was a welcome change from my usual last-minute rush looking for understocked shelves at other retailers. I can't say enough about the service or inventory on hand. If you're a commercial fisherman, boat owner, or just an enthusiast, they have just about everything you could possibly need under one roof! Definitely stop in and look around. And thank you again to everyone who made this place possible you guys are amazing!!!”
“Great store. Super knowledgeable staff that took the time to work with our 12 year-old and provide all sorts of information about disc golf and selecting discs. I was really impressed with the time and care two employees showed and very grateful for the experience. It was really cool to see employees that not only have a deep knowledge of the products they sell but also cared a were extremely friendly and patient.”
“I went to their state fair stall and got some pretty great camo gear for great price. I was trying to find them for a while since they don't have a website, but I finally did!Good sizing options s-6x as well as a selection of rain and winter gear.”
“I was about to walk out empty handed after looking around for good shoes for my plantar fasciitis. Jason stopped us and asked if there was anything in particular we were looking for. He found me a bunch of shoes to try on to help relieve my heel pain. We settled on a pair, and a week later, I’m still happy he stopped us.”
“Fun place to stop in Anchorage with a huge selection of outdoor gear, fishing, and hunting supplies. The store itself is really well set up and has that classic Bass Pro feel with the big displays and cabin-style vibe. Even if you’re not buying anything, it’s worth walking through just to check it out and browse. Good spot for gear or just killing some time indoors.”
“Good stock of lots of outdoor items. Prices are on par with competition. Although a little short staffed they are always really happy, caring, and eager to help. The store is generally organized quite well too”
“It's very large and spacious and the service is excellent. The carry everything you expect to find at REI and a bit more. The only downside is that prices are at a premium, especially for non REI brands. But here you often get what you pay for. You can get world class gear if you are willing to pay world class prices.”

“This Footlocker is conveniently located on the 1st floor of the 5th Ave Mall. Workers are always friendly and helpful. Clothing sales and shoe options rotate frequently. We are able to find our sizes more than half the time we visit. Recently, due to not having a size we needed for an exchange, we had to request a refund. Luckily, it was quick and easy.”
“Shawn was awesome, he helped me into finding what i was looking for. He was amazing and very helpful during my visit. He made sure i get the help i need. he was also very funny and has a sense of humor. Everyone needs someone like Shawn. I walked out satisfied and happy with the service I received from him.”

“I had a fantastic experience at the Lids store in the Fifth Avenue Mall in Anchorage, AK, and I have to give a huge shoutout to the store manager, Julien! From the moment I walked in, Julien made sure I was taken care of, offering helpful suggestions and going above and beyond to ensure I found exactly what I was looking for.
Not only was he knowledgeable about the products, but he was also incredibly patient and attentive, answering all my questions and making sure I felt confident with my purchase. His customer service was top-notch, and he truly made the shopping experience enjoyable.
If you’re in Anchorage and need a hat or any custom embroidery, I highly recommend stopping by this location. Julien and his team will make sure you leave with exactly what you need and with a smile on your face. I will definitely be coming back!”
“Had a beyond amazing experience, the service was great!! Thanks to the employee Roy for making me a hat person now!!…I explained to Roy how I’m not a hat person because they always look stupid or too big and they don’t fit right and I just don’t feel comfortable or look good. I said what I was looking for, and he found me the perfect hat 1st try 🙌🏻 comfortable material, the clasp in the back, the length is shorter and so many other details are perfect. The hat looks great on me and its my daily hat now🙌🏻 I got my dogs name in neon added to it.”
“I took my 13 year old into the Dimond Center Footlocker around 8:15 on a Wednesday evening. I very friendly and knowledgeable young man named Castell helped us even though it was close to closing time and I'm sure he was ready to go home. The store was out of what my daughter had in mind however he showed her several like pairs of shoes and she found something she was really happy with. I was super impressed with his level of effort. I realized after left he had helped us before. A older lady with short gray hair snapped at him in a unprofessional manner. I wish I had said something to her then. I really hope this lady isn't getting away with degrading employees. The young adults/kids that work there deserve respect and I hope they know they have rights as employees to be treated professionally.”
“My daughter and I had a fun time riding the coastal trail in the snow. The shop is located close to the trail and parking was available. Pablo was very helpful setting us up with the right bike and explaining trail options. It was a great way to see beautiful views of the city and to experience the parks.”
