“I stumbled upon these guys when I wandered into a surf shop with my kids in Rhode Island, and I spotted a thick long-sleeved surf T shirt that reminded me of the kind I wore when I was a kid. It quickly became a staple of the summer wardrobe.
Fast-forward to Christmas: My nephew just moved to LA and requested clothing that reflected a more California lifestyle. I have no idea what Gen Z is wearing in LA, but I know of a great California surf shop that might do the trick. My nephew loved the gifts so much, he started them wearing minutes after opening his presents. So, it turns out great beach clothing can cross generations.
These guys clearly are detail oriented. They’re a throwback to a time when people cherished favorite articles of clothing and those shirts or shorts would last years.
True, styles change but the desire for something comfortable after a long day at the beach never does, at least for the people who truly love the beach.
I will caution, though, communication is one way with these guys. Two emails went unanswered in a week, and I gave up ever getting a response. Whatever. The clothing is too good to hold it against them, and what do you expect? They’re surfers. They’re probably at the beach.”
“Very small selection of a variety of sporting goods. Everything from soccer to fishing and everything else. They have great shoe section at this store as well.
If
If you’re looking for more variety, you’ll have to go to Dick’s. However, Big 5 may have the item you’re looking for, but maybe not the brand you are looking for.
Store is well organized and clean, although the AC system was leaking when I was there and they had a kiddie pool on the floor to collect water. Hopefully that gets fixed soon!
The employees were somewhat distracted with the leak, so not very helpful. The cashier up front looked miserable and was genuinely surprised when I said I would give him my email to save 10%.”
“Son needed ball glove relaced Contacted Josh. He set it up with another employee. Did and awesome job mystery man. Josh was great to deal with. Thank you HB Play It Again”
“I can’t say enough good things about Rob and the staff at the store. They’re super helpful always responsive and very reasonable. They have helped me progress my kite skills via assisting me with finding the right gear for my progression level. Thanks again, Rob .”
“I was looking for roller skates to use at the boardwalk and was recommended to come here. Sky was very helpful and let me try on a variety of skates, and even helped find a pair in my favorite color purple! I am so excited for my skates to be shipped to me.”
“I was looking for an auto racing helmet at a physical store instead of buying online. A couple of places have closed their physical store in Orange County and was glad to have found Sube Sports. All of the online searches had results for motorcycle helmet places. The gentleman was very helpful, patient and was able to will call the item because I left my wallet at home and I live about an hour away. Thanks again for the bell helmets”
“Me and my buddy wanted to learn to surf and came from out of town not really knowing what to expect. We were very lucky to find this spot to rent from. It was worth every penny. Incredibly welcoming people there, reasonably priced, great convenience, phenomenal customer service. Really outstanding honestly.”
“Scotty is the best in the business! Don’t bother shopping for ski boots or going to a store until you’ve had a free consultation with him. It will inform what boots are best for your feet. I went all in and got a custom footbed and moulding process on my boots and it’s a GAMECHANGER!! Highly recommend! Scotty is one of those guys who cares about you feeling the most comfortable you possibly can and his passion for it is contagious. Book in now!”
“I can't say enough good things about my experience with Stand 21 North America. They offer the best product out there & I rest better knowing my kid is in the safest gear on the market. Clement and the staff there are so easy to work with and are always quick to respond to my questions. I'd give more than five stars if I could. Great group to work with and exceptional safety equipment.”
“I had a last min order I needed done on a Saturday and they were so great in assisting me! I got there an hour before closing and they stayed late to finish the job after so many other places had turned me away. The product looked great! 10/10 would recommend!”
“The front desk staff was incredibly patient and helpful, making everything so easy for me. Honestly, I wish I were more into the outdoors because I’d definitely be coming here all the time. Thank you for the wonderful service!”
“I bought an FX DRS Classic about a week before the Mark II was released/announced. Joe upgraded me to the new model without even being asked and let me know it would be shipped when they arrived in the US after I called in to check on the order. I am now one of the first people around to get to own and shoot this beautiful rifle! There are not many airgun shops around these days, especially on the west coast, but we are lucky to have a great one here! Definitely the place to go if you're in LA or even CA.”
“I Bought me a pink and brown retro single fin short board with a round nose and round tail. I love this thing, the shop is great for all levels of surfers. I knew exactly what I was looking for and somehow found it sitting on the racks.”
“Love this selection of shoes and sandals. The gentleman that assisted us. Sorry I didn't get his name, was very helpful. Great customer service. And great prices. We were there on Sunday morning. Easy quick in and out.”
“Christine is the best super knowledgeable and helpful I knew nothing and she was able to help me secure the bag and make sure I was holiday ready thank you so much get this girl a medal!!!”

“Juan was extra nice he helped us find ky son the coolest little shoes and they were 40 percent wow what a deal I'll defbe back for another pair soon 10/10 service”
“The service and knowledge Anthony Viking and Keith provide are priceless.
The promotions for ammo are always great.
I enjoyed being a buying customer and discussing different topics and absorbing info from Anthony, which I know I will be a loyal customer from now on.”
“Despite the challenges I encountered with my online transactions, I was fortunate to receive outstanding assistance from a staff member named Colin. He took the time to carefully listen to my concerns, thoroughly explained the situation to the DSG online customer service representative, and worked collaboratively with both of us to ensure that each step of the return process was completed accurately. Throughout the process, Colin provided reassurance and confirmed that I would receive proper documentation regarding the changes made. What I initially expected to be a prolonged and stressful situation was resolved far more smoothly than anticipated. This level of professionalism and customer service is truly commendable, and I sincerely appreciate both Colin and the online representative for their patience, attentiveness, and understanding.”
“Super stoked with my experiences over the years! Used to come back in high school with a bud of mine (8 years ago), back to start a personal nhl collection and find great pulls!!
Family oriented, knows ins and outs of most sports, Pokemon and more !
Pulled my first 1 of 1 rookie, first-round, first pick for NHL (2020/21 season).”

“I've ordered at least 10 pairs of these in the last 2 years (black, grey, blue, white). These are the only pants my 16yo will wear and they always ship out the day after I place my order. Yes, they're expensive but I have an athlete (not recreational) so fit and comfort is key when she might play up to 4 games in a day.”
“This might be long winded, but necessary to express how impressed and thankful I am for this company. I am a novice at ordering equipment but read reviews online on places to order gloves and equipment. So I placed my order online thru their website, after doing much research prior.
The gentleman called me to give me a status of my order, then proceeded to give me a much needed history lesson on all the top glove manufacturers out of Thailand. His kindness and valuable information, along with taking the time to spend 20 minutes on the phone with me chatting, has given me the utmost respect for OTM Fight Shop. I only wish I lived near it so I was able to frequent the establishment in person. The customer service was so far and above the norm for present times. I am a novice that loves working out at home, and the advice I received i would have paid for. This business has to be on the top 1% in the U.S.
You have gained a customer for life, and will refer folks to you, thank you.”
