Such an amazing store that I have supported for over 30 years. All my shoes are from here. This local icon will rebuild from their devastating fire to once again be a local leader for all their loyal customers. Unmatched customer service, great products, and always evolving to meet the current needs. It is such a unique store that really offers something for everyone! Much larger than it appears from the road with great products in every corner. I have witnessed so many growth changes through the years and have been impressed every time. Thank you Lloyd Clarke Sports for being here and for working hard to come back quickly!

We have been shopping at Lloyd Clarke for almost 30 years. Raising three kids who are active in many sports, this was always our "go to" for most everything. It is great to go into a store when you know each other. We love knowing Dana and staff will always have the knowledge of the products to steer us in the right direction. they have such great class and integrity all around. Its a great place for a quick gift or gift to yourself!

As a local chiropractor I know the importance of proper footwear for stability of the body. I’ve been referring patients to Lloyd Clark’s for years. They have a vast amount of knowledge. Their staff will get you into the correct pair shoes!!!

The best running/outdoors store in GNV, hands down. Dana, Daniel and all the other employees are always so helpful. They are super knowledgeable about what they carry and can provide great advice/suggestions depending on what you need. Truly a local business gem. Even though they are temporarily closed right now due to a fire, I am confident when they reopen it will be better than ever!

I have been shopping at this store for 10+ years, buying all of my running shoes here, and have always been willing to spend more for supporting a local business, however, today was super disappointing. My family bought me running shoes as a gift. They fit okay when I initially tried them on, then went outside to try them running down the road. After a couple of minutes, they cutoff the circulation in my feet and they went numb. I came to return the shoes and the manager refused to accept an exchange because they had been worn outside. They would’ve needed a wipe down, but were by no means dirty. The manager told me that they would “be out of business if they accepted all of the worn running shoes that people tried to return,” and that I would “laugh in his face” if he tried to sell me the shoes that I was returning. I let him know that I’ve actually gone outside the storefront and run in all the shoes I’ve ever tried on and purchased at the store, and he conceded that they will allow that. This is a long ramble only to warn folks that the return policy seems to be applied subjectively, so it may not be worth buying a $150-$200 running shoe in the store without knowing how it will feel upon use.

Great store! I really encourage anyone looking for a good sporting goods store to give it a try. Locally owned. Excellent service and good selection. Much better experience than going to Dick’s or REI.

My friend and I were searching for a travel backpack for a missions trip. This place came up in my local search and I was floored when I walked in! Not only was Ian and their staff super helpful and kind, but their selection and range was better than any stores we had been to. We actually had options with fair prices! Highly recommend this place for any and all outdoor needs. Even their clothing was incredible and their shoe selection, outstanding!
