“I bought the Pioneer 3 and the kayak seat for my 11 year olds birthday. We just took it out for the first time yesterday. We loved it. The design is great. Super rigid. The kayak add on seat is incredible. Everyone at the Newport back bay was asking about it. We had such a good time I ordered a ton more gear last night. I got a board for myself and their huge water mattress pad so we can connect our boards into a hobie cat looking craft! The build is very high quality. The connecting points, bungee cords and seam seals. All supper well made. I’m so impressed with Isle!! If I’m not careful I’ll end up having to get two more for my wife and daughter but I guess then we can take over the back bay with our armada :) Thanks to everyone at Isle for building great gear. Looking forward to getting mine. And the roof rack. And the connecting straps. And whatever else I ordered last night.”
“Came in from a referral from the Glock store that this place was legit. I was looking around for "gun parts" and Grover and Javier helped me out, answered all my questions, and f****** sold me on getting an upper. They told me the pros and cons of the ones I was eyeing and were extremely knowledgeable about the different comps and muzzle brakes I wanted for my "gun part". I checked in and got a free patch, gun bag, constitution, etc. literally a s*** ton of goodies. I've never had a more positive experience in a gun store. I wasn't a number or a sale, I was just a person that wanted to see what they had and got really good vibes from the staff. I highly recommend this place for all your ar-15 needs and ask for Grover and Javier.”
“Gravity Gear and Bonnie - You've helped and advised me from the very beginning, over 10 years ago from trade ups, to new canopies, 2 rigs, flight suits, helmets, and a ton of other gear. I couldn't have done it without your expert advice and knowledge. Don't know what I would have done without you.”
“Love this shop.For the last 4 years I've been buying hats here. Very nice salesperson there all the time. They have some rare hats you don't find in the typical storefront. This was the first shop I bought a fitted hag, they helped me find the right size.”
“I recently started visiting malls again - an activity I used to love to do here in San Diego but had to work hard to overcome some things to get the confidence and desire to go back again. Lids has always been a favorite and the first thing I did after entering the store was to renew my membership, which comes with a sharp discount on all products, either 20 percent on ball caps or 10 percent off on items like jerseys. It's a great service and with the high cost of many ball caps these days, it's nice to have something that at least covers a little more than the tax on the product. There are four or five sports shops at the Westfield Plaza Bonita Shopping Mall. I have to say that they are all good and I imagine that there's some steep competition between them. But Lids has one thing that the others don't. The ability to create designer ball caps for its customers. This makes Lids stand apart from the rest. I won't say it is the number one sports shop at this mall, but no doubt it helps keeps the shop in the running for number one. And as I have had excellent custom designed ball caps in the past at a Lids in Jacksonville, FL, this Lids here in National City did not in any way disappoint! I think I drove the employees crazy as I took so much time to choose a ball cap, but they were all very courteous and lent me the time needed to make a good choice. I wanted to get a Padres ball cap too, but I'll save that for another time - I have two or three already with my few Padres jerseys. To get the best out of Lids, make sure you spend the annual $10 fee to become a member! After two or three hats you purchase, it pays for itself. Also, get on the Lids mailing list as there are times they have outstanding discount sales on ball caps and other gear. I've gotten great team ball caps between $10-$20 in the past when these deals roll around a couple of times each year. I have purchased items at the other sports shops in the San Diego area. But Lids is just about always my first choice when it comes to buying ball caps!Recommend: VERY HIGH”
“Matthew was incredibly helpful while we were shopping for shoes for my dad. He was friendly, patient, and took the time to help us find the right pair. His great attitude and excellent customer service made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. Thank you, Matthew, for all your help—we really appreciate it!”
“Frequent visitor of San Diego. Have been here several times to buy Padres gear and always been great prices and smooth transactions. Better selection than the Padres team store.”
“Amazing and arrived fast, but the real highlight was the support of Shannon C. Who patiently walked me through and found what i was looking for it. Thank you Again Shannon.”
“Everyone is so helpful and so attentive to the shoppers needs. Daniela helped me with my purchase, They did not have the size of shoe I was looking for, but Daniela offer to get the shoes online and get them shipped to my home address which was so helpful. Overall great customer service.”
The outdoor retailer plans to open a 100,000-square-foot store in College Station, Texas, in 2028. It'll sit along State Highway 6, north of William D. Fitch Parkway, next to a Costco and in front of the future South College Station baseball and softball complex. On Sept. 24, the College Station City Council approved a $10.84 million sale of 28 acres in a unanimous vote. Bass Pro gets about 14 acres for its store. Dallas-based Corinth Properties will build a mixed-use project with restaurants and an event plaza on the other 14.
