Sporting Goods in Newport, RI

“I am thankful to the manager who made my shopping experience at Lululemon wonderful! It is a little intimidating walking in and trying to figure out what I need with so many options and details to each of the yoga pants. She took the time to listen and understand my needs. I have great fitting pants that make my yoga workouts even better. Fit and comfort is the best.”

“Honestly one of the BEST retail experiences we have had. Brien spent so much time with us and literally answered EVERY question we had and we had a lot. We were in a month ago while in Newport looking at a boat and knowing we needed gear i had started researching online and found Gill. Well i was impressed online and so excited to find they had their one and only store in the world, right in town!!!!! Anyway after firing off 2-3 dozen questions we told Brien we would return and if we bought the boat we were coming in to buy gear. Well we came in close to closing ( Friday the 13th ) and again had a lot of questions and he again answered. We kept him busy in and out of the back looking for this or that in a certain size and he was happy to do it. Quite a peasant change from a 16 year old on their phone who you are bothering while trying to spend money at their store. Brien did not look at his phone once and did not even mention once that we were approaching his 6pm closing time. We were not rushed and it was such a pleasant experience. We ended up having to buy their 90L bag to haul our stuff as there was so much. Besides the great retail experience the gear seems to be such a good value. Its literally 50-70% less expensive than some of the big name competitors. We ended up buying light, medium and heavy weather gear so 3 full outfits each and then some additional jackets and boots ( the giant fleece lined poncho/sleeping bag is AWESOME ) , and gloves and it was shockingly reasonable. He extended us a discount for an upcoming sale they would be having which i thought was very nice and generous. We are excited to get out sailing and put this stuff into use and we will certainly return as we figure out what we need to put on the boat for guests. He's got our business as long as he is there that is for sure. Thank you Brien!!!!!!!!”

“Wonderful customer service and great selection. I live near Boston and This was the only place within 100 miles with Hoka Women's size 5.5 in all white in MULTIPLE styles. I was so impressed with the customer service when I came into the store on a Sunday afternoon.”

“Went in yesterday and found the shop to be well stocked, the owner full of knowledge and very fun. Ended up purchasing a down jacket and I am very satisfied. Won’t hesitate to return or recommend.”

“We’re staying in Newport Rhode Island for the weekend. I googled bike shop so that I could buy a lock because I forgot mine. Stopped over at 10 spokes bicycle shop and I couldn’t be happier. The owner was very nice and he actually filled up the air in our tires, and gave us a free bicycle map and gave us a ton of places to ride to even let us park our car in his driveway. Huge variety of bicycles and accessories. Great establishment.”

“As a plus size woman I was nervous to step foot into this store. I was hesitant because some stores claim to be “all inclusive sizing” but only go up to an XL. From the second my husband and I walked in. We were greeted by warm smiling faces and that’s when I noticed the plus size mannequins and that had my sold. It makes me so happy to see this because ALL bodies should be celebrated. More stores need to follow in their steps. Huge kudos to this store. ;)”

“Absolutely the best place for team gear in foul weather gear in the area. Name brand thought weather gear is expensive so bring plenty of cash or a fresh credit card!!! We had a problem with an item that was mislabeled and therefore not available in the store, but the staff was helpful and we got the situation figured out. We went to the warehouse to pick up the”

“Decent but not the best selection of shoes. Trade-off is that prices are very competitive, with generous discounts and coupons. Employees were constantly coasting around to keep the shop tidy and organized, and to help customers out and answer any questions--very helpful!”
