“What a difference a few years makes. I would only go there to pick up orders I made online. In the last year or so I noticed how the staff were had improved, the inventory was better, and without pause staff would have serious conversations with me about outdoor gear. I just want to go in to outdoor stores and get what I need and advice when there's better options -- I will not go to places that I have to muddle through mainsplainy talk to get to what my actual questions are. I haven't gone there to shop since my last review--just pickup and returns but maybe I will now.I still think REI in general does not have that great of inventory for women in the outdoors. There is so much gear and technical clothing being created by and for women but I still find REI's stock veers toward fashion for women. It also tends toward trendy companies where some of the greatest innovations and products in outdoor technical clothing and gear come from smaller companies (although Patagonia has remained tops). I still try to target independently owned outdoor stores for myriad reasons including well curated gear and clothing.”

“Great quality products. It's the only place I get shoes from. A little pricey though. The location in North Bethesda has a bit of a parking problem but not too bad.”

“Lacrosse unlimited is amazing. I go there every time I need my stick restrung. Their staff is so nice and so knowledgeable about the sport. I even once broke my stick the day before a game and needed a new one asap. We went there and got a new stick stung overnight right in time for my game. Awesome experience here definitely hit it up if your lacrosse player!”

“Tennis Zone Plus consistently exceeds expectations with top-notch service. The staff's profound knowledge of racquet sports sets them apart. As a co-owner of StarrMark Tennis Academy, I highly recommend this store for expert stringing and equipment purchases to all our academy clients. Moreover, as the head coach of the WCAC Championships teams at DeMatha Catholic High School and Elizabeth Seton High School, I proudly endorse Tennis Zone Plus as the official stringer for our teams. For all your racquet sports needs, Tennis Zone Plus is undoubtedly the go-to destination.”

“Shout out to Kimberly for such warm, consultative service! As an avid distance runner for years, I was overdue for a proper fitting. After telling Kimberly a little about my running/shoe history (and that I was "Hoka-curious") she shortly fitted me with fantastic options. I soon walked away with a pair of Hokas after this insightful visit (turns out I need wide shoes and have been wearing mine too tightly). Alas, a gem of a shop nestled near the heart of Adams Morgan.”

“I've had several interactions with Golfdom in Tysons, and they have all been excellent. I was fitted for irons and wedges with Charlie, and for woods with Gary. Each experience was professional and exceptionally helpful. I also bought a stand bag for my new clubs. One zipper on one side broke, and I happen to mention it to Dan at the front desk. He asked me to show him the bag, so I brought it in from the car. He told me to pick out a new bag to replace the one with the broken zipper! I had only mentioned it to see if he might recommend a way to have it fixed, but he said that the store and the bag manufacturer stand by their products. I recommend Golfdom without reservation. Excellent!”

“Just had a very good first experience here. Zach (sp?) did a great job helping me understand what type of shoe would work best with my feet and gait (even while the store got kinda busy). Purchased a pair of shoes at the end and would absolutely go back.”

“Debi and estrella made the whole shopping experience great and easy ! I love fabletics online, but getting amazing service in person is even better. One thing that stinks is online prices are often better so sometimes I just do returns at the store.We need more stores:)Happy thanksgiving & God bless!”

“I am a 'buy online' first guy but I have bought shin guards and cleats for my kid here because the prices were actually slightly less than Amazon and Dick's for the same item. On top of that, they are next to the Trader Joe's and Whole Foods I always go to, they have my kids' club team gear, and the guys who worked there actually recommended AGAINST buying a more expensive cleat for my kid based on her age and playing level.”

“Adrienne is a pleasure to work with and is very knowledgeable when it comes to rollerskates! She helped me place my Colorlab order and was able to determine my proper size/width for Riedell boots after sending her measurements, as well as answer questions regarding sizing for other skate boot brands and plates. I'm coming back for more (online) shopping!”

“I highly recommend Sports Extra. The owner was great with communication and helped me get creative on the design with a limited budget. For the second year in a row we did nearly 150 shirts for my customer's hack-a-thon event. They really liked the shirt material too.”

“The Manager, Cici was amazing. We had a large order of 11 shoes. They did not have any of the shoes in store. She was the only one at the register but she managed to take care of walking in customers while also looking up the orders for us. She was able to order all the shoes and ship it for us. All along she had a friendly and positive attitude towards us. The shoes were for a mission trip in Dominican Republic and those individuals receiving the shoes are going to be very happy. Thank you Cici for your positive vibes and friendly customer service. You made this experience very seamless.”

“From DRAB to FAB! Absolutely loved the service at Lacrosse Unlimited. A special Thank You to JOJO for taking great care of us upon my first visit. Needed a head re-restrung. Jojo greeted me with a smile, welcomed me into the store, and provided choices for restringing. The job was completed to perfection within a couple of days. For all equipment needs, this store is a must visit. Thanks again for the superb job done on our lacrosse stick.”

“Once upon a time in a land called GeorgeTown, there was an adventure that left me both embarrassed and starstruck!Before stepping foot into this store, my friend and I devoured a delicious early lunch filled with oysters, shrimp, and all the local favorites. Little did I know, my stomach had its own little plan brewing after lunch. As it really didn't sit well with me and my poor tummy started rumbling like a volcano about to erupt!Thankfully, my friend Nihar needed to buy a winter parka, and lucky for me, Patagonia has a bathroom. It was like the universe was conspiring in my favo, as I quickly rushed up stairs. The bathroom was surprisingly clean and well-stocked with soap and toilet paper. But here's the catch - the acoustics in there were something else! It felt like my stomach's symphony was echoing through the entire store. !Desperate to drown out the embarrassing sounds, I turned on some tunes and let the water run from the faucet m. But let's face it, you can't hide the truth forever and you've just got to go....After enduring my own personal "bubble guts" concert, I realized there was no air freshener in sight (sorry, staff!) and felt terrible for the next person who would have to endure this bathroom.... I took a deep breath and decided it was time to make a quick exit.As I hurriedly opened the bathroom door, I almost collided with none other than Adam Sandler himself! Yes, you read that right, THE Adam Sandler! My jaw dropped to the floor, and in a panic, I slammed myself back against the bathroom door. As there was no way I was going to let Adam witness the aftermath of my bathroom symphony and I was convinced he'd make a joke about me on his next show!But you know what? I gathered all my courage and casually greeted him with an "oh hey, Adam." and to my surprise, he responded kindly and moved along, saving me from any potential embarrassment. Phew!After escaping the bathroom fiasco, I made my way downstairs to join my friend Jesse, who was stuck on a conference call. Meanwhile, my other friend bombarded the staff with a million questions about their precious parka. I must say, the staff handled it like pros, remaining super friendly and helpful throughout the entire time. They even managed to maintain their professionalism while Adam and his bodyguard roamed around the store and with the growing crowd trying to entire the store to see Adam. All in all, it was a fun and eventful experience, despite my bathroom mishap. But hey, here's a friendly suggestion to the store: maybe invest in some air fresheners? I promise I'll return on my next visit, hoping for a less "aromatic" adventure and good times!.”

“@NateChap that store has policy that requires ID to purchase with credit. I’ve had to purchase with ID when using a credit card. Also it’s a small store you can keep an eye on customers.”

“Went to get a field hockey stick for my granddaughter who lives in New England & is a new player. The fellow who helped me was knowledgeable, patient, & kind. He had thoughtful suggestions about size, pricing, related information. If you need advice about sports equipment for field hockey or lacrosse, this is the place to go.”

“I am a former PSIA-AASI snowboard instructor and have been visiting the Gaithersburg location to rent ski equipment for myself and my young daughter who is learning to ski this season (2023-2024). I have found the staff to be very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The service has been excellent, the prices and policies have been very reasonable and the rental equipment has been in excellent condition. Thanks to Zack and the rest of the crew for a great experience!”

“Great experience went in for a tennis bag, awesome selection better than Dick's that's for sure. Marco was excellent as helping us find the right bag for our needs. We needed a second racket, and happily the exact one we needed was there on sale. The stringing would be available next day. I couldn't have had better service. I LOVE its locally owner owned and run. I'm happy to support small businesses and this one did not disappoint under new ownership and management. I was in and out of there with exactly what I needed in under 30 minutes. Thanks Marco!”

“While much of retail is now online, shopping for shoes and sneakers still is best done in person. There is no better place than RnJ. Incredibly knowledgeable, it was perhaps the best informed experience I’ve ever had. Felt like having personal time with a podiatrist or trainer. Truly exceptional in every way. Couldn’t recommend more highly.Footnote: I used to wear NB990’s for well over the past decade as a distance walker. After spending time and recommendations by staff, switched to the Hoka, Gaviota-4. Truly spectacular!”

“I visited American Eagle at Montgomery Mall with my daughter. Was very impressed with the staff and their efforts to be helpful, which one doesn't always experience at clothing stores in the area. In particular, the sales woman named Kayezel was extremely enthusiastic and willing to offer assistance - greeting us when we walked in, offering to assist, and helping us find items in different sizes. With respect to staff, our experience today was 5 stars. I'm giving the store 4 because I think the clothing is extremely overpriced for what it is.”
