“Friendly as could be. Tried to surprise my son. Shoes were impossible to get on (how'd Addias go and mess up a good thing with the slipon runners?).
No issue, showed me all the running shoes in my size.
Made my day. Thanks!”
“I trust the recommendations of the staff. They show patience, honesty, care, and knowledge and you feel like you are leaving with the best shoe you can get for your body and activity level!”
“I have purchased shoes primarily from outlet stores in the past, and I was impressed at the quality of service and products Fleet Feet offers compared to those discount stores. It's a completely different experience.
You may have to wait in a queue as it's customer based service and there may be a few people ahead of you. It's totally worth it though.
They scan your feet first for free, to get a much more precise idea of size, fit, and support. Next they sit down with you and have you try on a few different options and encourage you to walk around with them and compare/contrast. I never felt rushed. They even happily scanned my wife's feet even though she wasn't getting fitted for shoes!
Keep in mind this is more of a running/athlete specialty store, so you can't expect to see a myriad of brands and styles. But if you're simply looking for a quality running/walking/comfortable shoe, this is the place to go!”
“Every time I go to a Big River store I am greeted with friendly people. They are experts in running and happy to answer any questions I have about products. I train with Big River and they have made improvements in my life. I will continue to be a Big River customer.”
“Big River was fantastic helping me get a new pair of running shoes. Ethan was really patient and knowledgeable. He helped me get just the right shoes that fit well and feel great.
Big River has some great tech to measure feet. That was a big reason I went and it guided us to the best shoes.”
“Such great sales associates. They take their time to find you the right shoes. There's never any pressure. They gave great recommendations and worked hard to make sure I got the right shoes.”
“Fantastic disc golf experience. The whole staff was friendly and welcoming. Reid was a great host as he showed my family around the warehouse and helped us locate everything we would need. To walk into the warehouse, get to see it all and be introduced to everyone with a smile was a great experience my family will not forget. Gateway now has a special place in my bag. It also helps that you can choose from what looks to be 10s of thousands of discs. Thank you all for not just having a good product but giving a great behind the scene experience!”
“It’s not often you walk into a business and receive this level of passion driven professionalism teamed with customer service. I’ve been there many times over the past 30+ years and still leave with a smile on my face every time. Introduced my kids to the store this past weekend. Now, they are Feather Craft fans.”
“I had such a good experience here! This was my first time buying my own skates and Annie was so wonderful! She was very knowledgeable and made sure I got the skates that were best for me! I will definitely be back for any of my future skating needs. Highly recommend! :)”
“I was lucky enough to find these guys on the internet after much searching for a shop that could handle tubeless mountain bike tires. I had just recently purchased and almost 20-year-old mountain bike that has some specific hard to find parts. I felt like I was in well over my head. But the man at the service counter, Chris, brought everything to my level and was so helpful. We were able to find a more viable, cheaper option, that got me back on the road for half the money I expected and a quarter of the time. They made a customer out of me for certain.”
“Been shopping here for years and would not go anywhere else! Customer service is amazing. They've always worked with us on finding the best stringing options for our kids, gifted us a demo racket, and when my son's most recent racket broke abruptly, they replaced it without asking any questions.
Update 5/28
Continue to feel no place better for tennis help! I don't know enough about stringing, so I suppose if you have something particular, than go find what works for you. But, my son's racket recently cracked in an unusual location, yonex was no help, but the store was able to send it off, it was approved for a replacement, and despite being a pest they replaced the racket. Putting up with me can be tough and they did a great job! They even let me son keep a demo for weeks for try-outs because his racket was on backorder. Amazing people and amazing service!”
“He fixed my teen son's long pole in 3 minutes-no charge! Great service and I liked that he explained to my son what he planned to do to fix the wobbly head to ensure he agreed.”
“Went to the New Balance store a few days ago to return some shoes I bought online. & walked out w/ even better shoes ! Kenneth did an amazing job w/ helping me find the perfect shoe. He was very attentive, listened and took his time helping me. I would definitely recommend this location .10 out of 10 experience here.”
“Stopped in today to ask about new clubs and possible fitting. I met Ryan who was extremely helpful and took time to understand my swing and the issues I was facing - really went the extra mile. My next club purchase will absolutely be from Pro Am Golf!”
“These young people WANT to make a sale! They spent time online and on the phone with other stores to find the jersey I was looking for. It arrived days early and in perfect condition. Well done!”
“Employees super friendly. I spent $$$ alot but was sooo worth the it. I came from out of town but born and raised in STL. This is hands down the best store to find anything STL. Only feedback would be why not have Veterans discount? Im sure this is not a public response for you or your business, but as a veteran on a non-sale item at best 5% to show support would've been nice.
Support your local Vets!!!”
“UPDATE- REI Did resolve the issue below and exceeded my expectations so I do sincerely appreciate it. I am still going to leave this information public because people need to know the fine print before making a purchase. —-
I was told the bike was eligible to trade in. Went to trade it in today and was told they will not take it without training wheels. It was a used bike so didn’t come with training wheels they finally admitted, then told me that it’s not eligible for trade in because it was used. I had no idea it was used it looked brand new. It was discounted, and the salesmen told me it might be a return. They also told me the bike was definitely eligible for the trade in policy at REI. I believed him and didn’t question it because even with discount the bike cost over $200. $200 and this was the second bike we bought so of course I thought everything would go smoothly again. Over $300 I spent on bikes there and they won’t honor the trade in. Even if it had been new, they wont take it without the training wheels. Who keeps training wheels for a year? Of course thats in the fine print. That is how they get you.”
“My experience was excellent! David has helped me in the past with an elliptical machine and he was especially helpful with locating new equipment from another out-of-state store. Priced At the discounted floor model and explaining, providing information regarding free shipping/set up as well as take away for old treadmill for $50 that I am not using. Have visited the store location when it was second wind. And am still very happy with his assistance.”
“My experience at the store and with the product and the way I was dealt with was excellent. I used to go to the Old store but they’ve now moved and I was surprised the amount of equipment that they had in the store for sale. I certainly recommend them highly”
“As I arrived about 1030, Jason and I began discussing my purpose and he pointed me in the right direction. It was a great experience and I think the purchases will be well appreciated.”
“Been loving this place for decades. Knowledgeable, friendly, decently priced, and surprisingly well stocked, especially for baseball and softball.
It's a new season, like it always is every couple months. And that means sale racks at Fischer's and great deals.”
“Had a great experience at this place! The employees were awesome, super welcoming and they really knew what they were talking about. Also, I loved the birds in the store, they made the place feel even more cool. Definitely coming back! ⚽🫡”
“Prime sports has went above and beyond for not only our children’s gear, but also a community. Always willing to lend a hand without hesitation. Amazing inventory, and even better people.”

“They sell top notch athelic equipment look at their website. Also prodective equipment to keep children safe in gym's, and the play grounds. Besides volleyball nets and pickle ball nets, are made there at the company.”
“We used classic carpentry when we completely redid our kitchen 3 years ago. Jim was very professional, timely and the craftsmanship is awesome. We absolutely love our new kitchen, the cabinets they built are classic and timeless. Jim took my dreams and ideas and was able to make them come true. I especially love the 2 sided bar they built for us. One side is countertop height in the kitchen and the other side is bar height, they used gorgeous seeded glass in the doors so we could show off our platters and wine glasses. Still, 3 years later, everyone who comes to our house complements our kitchen... Especially the cabinets!”

“My women's hockey team struggled ordering jerseys every year from different sources, but I think we've found our forever outfitters with SCSG. Billy and Chris provided all the info we needed and worked closely with us to match our existing jerseys, making sure we got the right cut, and came out to our practice with samples so everyone got the right fit. Their communication was impeccable and jerseys arrived quickly. Pricing was competitive. I loved working with a local shop and would recommend them to everyone.”
“Justin was the best to work with! He really listened to my needs for my PT gym. He made everything very easy and enjoyable and delivery and set up went very smoothly. Highly recommend Justin to help you with your gym needs!”

“Frank Palazzo created a true gem here for car enthusiasts who want to try things on in person and support a local business. Frank and his son (also Frank) are extremely friendly, helpful, and patient. I can highly recommend visiting their store!”
“Maybe I’m new to shoe shopping (not really) but that felt VIP! Levi was very friendly and super helpful. Despite dealing with some pain in my feet, that was as painless a process as possible. We quickly nailed down styles in my size and which insole would help best. Worth every cent!”
