“I was used to the local army surplus store in Indiana which was great but small and ended up closing years ago. When I discovered this place on a work trip, I thought I'd found Valhalla. This place is bad∆ss with killer selection and prices. I'll be back.”
“Stopped by before the shop closed. The shop owner was kind and generous to share his time and knowledge. Helped us purchase a few pairs of sneakers and wentout of his way to acquire sneakers that were not in the shop. Will definitely be a forever customer given how awesome the service and selection was! Thanks again!”
“Went to Jenskates today to get my granddaughter a new pair of figure skates.This is definitely the place you want to visit for professional advice, proper fitting and top quality skating merchandise at a very fair price !”
“Abby helped me today and it was an awesome experience. I’m super new to getting back into exercise so I had no idea what I needed. She spent the time with me and went through all the options. I didn’t feel pressured at all and extremely happy with the sneaker I left with. I definitely wouldn’t have had the same outcome going to a regular sneaker store and picking something myself.. she was great!”
“Great smoke shop with great vibes. OG has a wide selection of many different smoke accessories, apparel, and jewelry. Staff are always welcoming and super friendly - special shout out to Steve, he knows his stuff. I’ll be returning!”
“Came here a few times to buy pool stuff, excellent service helped me pick out a pool cue. Wide variety of cues and accessories. Definitely recommend going here to shop for billiards.”
“Played it again sports in west Hartford has everything you can think of. They are so amazing! I found a great baseball glove. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to finding the gear you need for whatever sport you participate in! Thankyou played it again sports.”
“Deep stock. Good tools. Extreme patience. Franky devoted nearly two hours to successfully fit skates on my niece, whose two feet differed by one whole size. He experimented with different brands, widths, insert types, socks – getting closer and closer – then baked the pair that did the trick. She is delighted and prepped to skate with her toddler son, who does not yet know he's NHL bound. Can't say enough good things about Franky, a veteran, horseman, sports encyclopedia and all around big spirit.”
“Great store with large pre-owned section as well. Staff are always friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Has a small store feeling and everything I needed. Best bang for your buck in the area.”
“Great selection and an insanely knowledgable staff. No one made me feel weird as a new permit holder who knows nothing. I've been to other shops and my questions seemed to annoy the staff. Tactical Police Gear never seemed annoyed and seemed to relish feeding me information.Also...they have a gun store cat! No seriously. He comes out and greets everyone. Bonus!”
“Very friendly helpful an polite. My shoes were delivered to my home they were the wrong color. I called. I was told it was a mistake made from where the sneakers came from. I accepted and went to return them at another location I received my sneakers with the correct color”

“Had my sons racquet strung and purchased another one while I was there. Staff was knowledgeable and didn't push a sale. Both racquets were ready the next day.”
“AMAZING!!!!!! I love going to play it again! They’re truly amazing and so kind and caring!!! They really take care of you here!!! If I need anything I always there and check and see if they have before going anywhere else!! 12/10 would definitely RECOMMEND!!!! Janet is the sweetest ever!!! Love it here!!!”
“I brought more than a few projects to JoJo’s over the years. Every job has been done wonderfully, professionally, and in a timely manner. I recently had a Springfield Prodigy, which would not cycle properly. They diagnosed the problem, resolved it, and got it back to me. Took it to the range today, and it performed flawlessly.”
“Went into the store today so talk about getting my business name embroidered on some shirts. Left with a couple of sweatshirts done and a whole lot more on order. I would highly recommend Jodie and her team. They went above and beyond!”
“I have had several outstanding experiences here. The staff members are always friendly and helpful, on the phone and in the store. One helped advise me on how to look up gear on the website to confirm it was available for resupply in the store before coming in, and another took the time to check some shoes I was picking up to make sure they were the right size in the box. They have quality products and I am impressed by the staff’s attitude. Great job, guys, customer for life.”
“Looking for jordans for my son had me going crazy. I couldn't find the shoe or his size anywhere. Steve smiled and offered to help. He found what I was looking for, and it was sent quickly to the store. Thanks Steve. ?”
“The Staff here have consistently been helpful, personable, knowledgable and professional. My son ripped his mesh just before a game and these guys jumped to the rescue, resolved it perfectly, just in time and wished him luck.”
“I want to give a big Thank You to Jack for going above and beyond to help my daughter and me today while we were shoe shopping. Even as the store got busy, Jack stayed attentive and didn’t forget about us. We found a shoe we liked, but it wasn’t on display. Jack took the time to walk around the store twice to look for it, and when it couldn’t be found, he helped us place an online order instead. His patience, effort, and professionalism really stood out. Great customer service!
Location: Dick’s store across from Westfarms mall.”
“I rarely shop at footlocker, today I went with my two teenager daughters and everyone there was so amazing! One of my kids wanted a pair of new balances, Jomar came over and asked if we had any questions, my daughter asked if they had her size and he asked what that was-said she was better off getting the same shoe in the kids size and save $40. He figured out her size, found the shoe and saved me money. The girl at the register was unbelievably sweet too. The whole interaction was great. It was so great that I’m writing a review for footlocker. Mainly Jomar-he was awesome: And I saved $80 between 2 pairs of shoes today. I’ll be back!”
“Doesn't have the variety I'm looking for in the store however they do have larger size shoes available. Which both walmart and Marshall's don't carry unless online.”
“Love the clothes here! Technical but just as good for casual wear as for your workout. I even wear some pieces to work. Every stitch and seam has a purpose but the pieces are pretty too! and the best fit of any workout wear I've tried! The price is well worth it as they last and wear well. Plus, while they are on trend, they aren't fad-y, so you can wear them on and on.”
“This place was pretty good. We came in here looking for a particular pair of shoes and a particular size they had them I mean it’s a shoe store so this is what we expected but the service was really good. Everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable weed return.”
“Originally born in CT, my father bought me an outfielder's glove from Katz when I was 13 years old. Years of AAU baseball, American legion, Babe Ruth, High School ball, College Intramural's and now Men's softball. The glove still feels, looks and performs brand new as a 34 year old washed up ball player. Glove stands the test of time and an absolute work of craftsmanship!”

“My son has been swinging Beaver Bat since he was 8 years old. Now 13 and would not swing anything else. We got a custom blue and red with engraving, the quality very good, and the price is awesome for a wood bat. All the bad reviews are people that know nothing about baseball and how wood bats work. THEY ARE WOOD they will break eventually. However with good care they will last for years. On top of that there customer service is good not sure what people want, use there # and email on the website and they will answer. Until you swing one you will never know what your missing.”
“Going, Going, Gone! is Dick’s Sporting Goods outlet store, and it is definitely worth the drive for the deals. We’ve found some great values here, and it’s the kind of place where you can score really good discounts if you take the time to look around.
Just keep in mind that it is an outlet, so inventory is always changing and selection can fluctuate from visit to visit. That is part of the deal, but if you go in expecting that, it is absolutely worth checking out.”

“Wanted to order an A.H Fox off their website but had a couple questions, so I called in. Shayne was very professional and was able to address all my concerns. Shipping took a bit longer than expected, but ended up being worth the wait when it finally arrived.”
