“I placed an order on line and due to my own negligence ordered the wrong item. I brought it to my home store and not only returned the item, they helped me place the order for correct item. Thanks Dick's.”
“Loved my experience here with Julie and definitely glad I chose to purchase shoes here instead of by going based on online reviews for different shoes. It turned out the shoes I had my eye on felt nothing like how I imagined. The custom fitting is so important and I wish I’d done this sooner! Julie found me a perfect pair of Brooks. Great selection and service!”
“Great place! Knowledgeable staff-I highly recommend Alan. He’s very personable and helped pick out a shoe that immediately started relieving the pain I was in.”
“I was referred here by my sister in law after purchasing running shoes for her daughter, a collegiate athlete. I decided to give it a try since I am starting to take walking/jogging more seriously and would like to continue doing this long term. I have never been an athlete myself so I really didn't know the first thing about purchasing proper shoes. I have to say that Afana guided me every step of the way. I had no real idea of what I wanted but he was able to assess my needs quite accurately. I went home actually excited to get to the track with my new shoes. I walked my first mile and I can say that I have no regrets about the shoes I purchased. Thank you for all your help Afana! My feet felt great after my walk.”
“I love this place so much but I'm giving it a four because whenever I go the machine has to get reset at least once. Other than that it's a really clean establishment with a vending machine and a miniature store. Also the workers are very nice.”
“Brandon was great helping my son figure out what he needed to get started in airsoft. We purchased a gun, mask and vest and the prices were good. He also went over how to load and work the gun. Thanks so much!”
“If you need a pair of skates (old or new) this is the spot!!!! Hanna was sooo kind & patient w/me! She shared loads of knowledge in educating me about which was the best skate for me. Very honest, & did I say kind! Their inventory is back & they are stocked! I love my new skates so much! OG 172 Thanks for everything ?”
“Went in for some grips. They didn’t have the exact one I needed. So the gentleman gave me a comparable one for free to try out. That was really nice to do and very much appreciated. I will be back this week to pick up the other 7 grips. Thanks again.”
“Really like this store. Great selection of outdoor items, tools, hardware, fishing, shooting, garden, pets and farm stuff. Prices are very good and all the associates are very friendly.”
“I recently (May 9th) purchased a pair of workout shoes from Running Excel and found the experience genuinely refreshing. Beverly, the owner, was both warm and patient as she guided me through her extensive selection. She meticulously showed me at least 12 pairs of shoes and even took the time to measure my feet and observe my walking style, ensuring the pair I selected had the right type of arch support.
The personalized service truly stood out. Beverly’s attention to detail made the entire process feel tailored to my needs, and I appreciated how her expertise helped me confidently make a final selection. While my experience was excellent overall, the review reflects a 4-star rating simply because there’s always room for a little extra refinement—perhaps a few more style options or a slightly faster process might make the visit even more exceptional.
I’m a customer for life at Running Excel; when it comes to workout shoes, this is my go-to store. The friendly, detail-oriented service really set the bar, and I look forward to my next visit.”
“Loads of items to shop from. If you're interested in stopping by, they're only open to the public until the end of the month (April). Because of the pandemic, their rules have changed. First, you go onto the website. Second, pick a time and date from their list. Third check your email, for a response, to let you know if your choice is available. They have ribbon, material, tablecloths, pillows, pottery, vases, Christmas decor, fall decor, home decor, faux flowers, etc.. The list goes on. They only have this sale twice a year, April and October.”
“Best sporting goods store I've ever been in. Outstanding selection, reasonable prices, excellent service. Great assistance from a very knowledgeable staff person. Bought my grandson a pair of soccer shoes. Couldn't be happier with the selection. Will always come here first. Highly recommended.”
“Rally House at the Orland Square Mall was a fantastic one-stop shop for all of my Chicago souvenirs! The store is huge, and they have a large variety and selection of merchandise for Chicago, all Chicago sports teams, and a ton of Illinois colleges and universities. I gave them 4 stars because it was a little pricey (but I'm okay with that since everything is in one place!) and they had merchandise from every Big Ten school...except for Penn State! Other than that, it's a must-visit store!”
“The employee was nice and helped us determine a letterman jacket for our daughter. Only concern would be hours of operation, not being open late or weekends made it challenging to find a time to go in especially if your kid is involved in after school sports.”

“I was looking for a solid bike for my son and Chicagoland Bike delivered! Walked in, given a couple options and a test ride. After we decided which bike, they topped up the air and tightened whatever needed to be tightened and we were on our way. Thanks for making this EASY and providing excellent service.”
“I was shopping for a pair of jeans for my mother and I did not know her size exactly, all I knew was that she doesn't like the usual jeans band around the waist because it's tight and Amanda the sales associate was just incredible and so knowledgeable about every single thing about jeans amd clothing and the different type of styles and fabrics. Amanda has amazing customer serve and knowledge and is just the most pleasant young lady I had the pleasure of being helped by. It was very refreshing meeting and interacting with her. I hope that the Hollister company realizes the value that she brings to their company. I also hope that she is appreciated.”
“Had to exchange shoes for a different size that we received as a gift. The people were quick, friendly and knowledgeable and offered to exchange with no problem. Since shoe size was not in stock they ordered them from the warehouse to be delivered to my home at no charge since I already made the trip to the store once. I was in and out in about 5 minutes. Nice!”
“I am consistently impressed by the exceptional service provided at this establishment. The manager, Jayson, is particularly noteworthy for their exceptional customer service and commitment to ensuring that customers receive the most favorable deals. I appreciate their unwavering dedication to providing a positive experience.”
“This is a nice place to visit if you are interested in sports memorable items. They also have Chicago material. A nice little shopping heaven with courteous staff. June 3rd, I found Chicago team stickers to add to my bowl collection found at Macy's. The 3d Blackhawks one came from Clark Street Sports. Orland Square Mall did it right tonight.They turned out great. See pictures.”
“Excellent Customer Service by Tray in shoe department. I was struggling to buy my son, soccer cleats. I could not tell the difference. He came up to us & offered his expertise. Gave us different sizes & helped us. My son is very happy with his new soccer cleats. During check out Zack also has great customer service. They did not dismiss us. They treated us nice, kind & did not brush us off. Dick’s should be proud of these young men.”

“My father bought me and my brothers our very first bowling balls for Christmas. The staff was patient when with all of us as we selected our exchanges, measured our finger sizes and especially when I asked for constant adjustments. Enjoyed a nice beer and a few games of pool while we waited. Thanks again guys! Will be back for more supplies.”
“I was SO excited when I discovered that Lids will customize a hat - even if it’s from another store. And it only takes a few minutes!
Their employees were extremely sweet, helpful and knowledgeable. I was unable to find a hat in their store that fit my son’s head but they were so kind and mentioned that I could find one from another store but still use their services. This made my day! I’ll be using Lids more often now that I know this. Thank you to the employees for being so friendly.”
“Andrew and Natasha went ABOVE AND BEYOND to help me fine what I need. Made my shopping experience super smooth. A HUGE HUGE THANK YOU!!!! Their help definitely exceeded my expectations!!!”
“I've been here before shopping for baseball equipment. Very good prices. I checked out the weights and Olympic barbell. I'll be back for plates and dumbbells.”
“I have always went to the PGA superstore for my golf equipment needs but that changed for me! Golf Galaxy in Orlando is top notch when it comes to customer service and expert service. My brand new Ping G440 Max driver shaft snapped in half on Saturday and I went directly to golf galaxy and Bod there in service got me set back up right away with new shaft and actually bought a new hybrid as well. He helped on price a bit but all in all I will always make Golf Galaxy my goto Golf store and service needs from now on! Thanks Bob!!!!”
“You’re in very good hands if you’re being attended by Amity. She’s an amazing rep and I say that because not only she understood what we were looking for, but also helped look for other similar things. We had the best customer service experience in all of my foot locker shopping till now!
Thank you Amity,
Thank you Foot locker, Chicago ridge mall”
“I was greeted immediately, helped by friendly staff, and was in and out with a speedy checkout in minutes. I would definitely purchase from Champs Sports again ?”
“Good service for sure. A little light on the Jordan's, but I like this footlocker. The people treat you good and they aim to please. I'll be back a hundred times for sure....”
“My husband and I had my grandchildren over and decided to come in and purchase new sneakers for them with no clue of sizes Ariel went above and beyond to help us and I was especially impressed I hadn't purchased sneakers for children in over 30 years! I was very overwhelmed but Ariel made our experience amazing. Thank you for her!”
“Steve at Water Trends on 159th has been a saving grace for us. He was able to get us a replacement part for our pool and a new liner that we were not able to get for the last 16 months. Hats off to Steve! (hopefully the installer keeps his date with us)”
