He Helped me pick the perfect shoe and I am 100% happy with my experience with everything I got today I will be back while on this new run journey!”

“Very Friendly Staff !!!
They helped me choose an aluminum plate for my roller skates and installed them for me. The staff installed and adjusted my wheels and adjusted my trucks to my style of skating.
Very nice shop, very well organized to easily shop for what ever you need skating related. Great location to come from all neighborhoods ( I drove from Cedar Lake, IN )
I highly praise this store to visit if you are into skating ???”
“Thank you so much for making my son’s birthday by holding the ICON for us!! Myles was so helpful on the phone when I asked about a specific model bat & the owner couldn’t have been any nicer when we came to pick it up!! ⚾️?”
“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!”
“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.”
“Definitely a good store for people that are into hats they definitely have some hard to find hats. Definitely good customer service as soon I walk in they helped me”
“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.”
“I stopped by for an infield glove for a 12 year old. There were a lot of options and the staff helped me with the fit. The staff was very knowledgeable. I love having the option to buy from a local business.”
“My mom took me here, and I’ve been to multiple Zumiez locations, but this one stood out the most. The manager, Jimmy, was absolutely amazing. He took his time helping us and even helped me put together some outfits and style myself. He made sure we knew about all the discounts and had such a great attitude the entire time. He was very kind, patient, and made the whole experience enjoyable. Definitely one of the best customer service experiences I’ve had.”

“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.”
“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 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.”
“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!”
“Did a Ping warranty claim through these guys and they handled everything great and kept me updated. Answered a lot of questions about things I can update in my current bag as well. I’ll definitely be back!”
“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.”
“Play It Again Sports in Oak Lawn is one of the best sports stores I’ve ever been to. From the moment you walk in, the store feels clean, organized, and easy to navigate. Every section is clearly laid out, whether you’re looking for baseball, hockey, fitness equipment, or anything in between. It’s the kind of place where you can find exactly what you came for — and usually a few extra great deals you didn’t expect.
Their selection of both new and gently used gear is seriously impressive. You can tell they take the time to choose quality items, and everything on the shelves looks well-maintained. For anyone trying a new sport or upgrading without spending a fortune, this store is a lifesaver.
One of the biggest highlights is the staff. They’re friendly, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable about the equipment they sell. They don’t hover or pressure you — instead, they actually listen to what you need and give helpful advice based on experience. Whether you’re a parent shopping for your kid’s first season or an athlete who knows exactly what specs you want, they treat everyone with the same level of respect and attention.
Their buying and trade-in process is another huge plus. Selling your old gear here is quick, fair, and totally hassle-free. They offer honest prices and explain how the process works so you always feel comfortable with the deal.
Overall, Play It Again Sports in Oak Lawn is the perfect mix of affordability, quality, and great service. It’s rare to find a store that consistently delivers all three, but they do it every single time. I recommend it to anyone who needs sports gear — you won’t be disappointed!”

“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.”
“Great experience at Hollister!
The store is clean, well organized, and the staff is very friendly and helpful.
Good quality clothes, nice styles, and great prices.
Always find something I like here. Definitely recommend this store!”
“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”
“Monse was very sweet and helpful. She brought me multiple pairs to make sure I had the best fit and genuinely didn’t mind going back and forth. Her energy and attitude really made it a great experience. I have had many experiences where employees at other stores made me feel like an inconvenience—Monse was great, I will definitely return to this location because of her.”
“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!”
“Cooper in the golf section was awesome to work with! He regripped all 14 of our clubs and did an incredible job. He was patient, professional, and clearly knew his stuff. If you need anything golf-related, head to Dick’s Sporting Goods and ask for Cooper. Thanks again!”
“I am a new owner of a pool from The Great Escape and went into Water Trends on 159th for some things. Robin was so incredibly helpful and took her time walking us around and explaining what was needed and why. I learned so much from my short time in there and I will definitely be back!”
