“Alan went over & above! He's great! He found the parts i was looking for. Then he found additional parts, used parts, that he shared with me for free. Love Alan! Love Rack & Rode!”
“Had a wonderful experience here! I originally came in just to try on shoes before buying online, but after the foot scan, I ended up finding a completely different pair that fit my feet much better.
Ahmed was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, helping both my mom and me try on multiple pairs. I also loved that the staff don't work on commission, so there was zero sales pressure. Highly recommend if you're looking for shoes that truly work for your feet!”
“This is gotta be the best place to rent a kayak on Lake Union. The staff is so nice and informative, and the prices are lower than any of the other rental businesses. Finally, they have triple kayaks, which are good for a family with one kid. It’s a very safe place to kayak, and watch the planes, taking off and landing in the lake. We had a great day and we’re so happy we chose this business To rent kayaks from..”
“Have taken two lessons for kiteboarding through Urban surf up at the Everett Jetty.
Overall, great experience, knowledgable teachers with one on one sessions.
Additionally, they are exceptionally fair when it comes to time on the water. They don't charge you for the set up and take down time which is just apart of kiteboarding. The teachers will be very honest when you're ready to venture out on your own and provide a ton of knowledge on kiteboarding, like what to watch out for buying used, what features in equipment might be important to you and your specific cases, etc.
Overall, if you want to get into kite boarding, this is a very safe and well ran organization.
Also, sometimes the wind doesn't blow and their reschedule process is clear and straightforward when that happens.”
“Came here to deal with a heel lift/fit issues for my La Sportiva G2 Evo mountaineering double boots. Not something that ski stores deal with on a frequent basis if it all - so it was a pleasant surprise that the friendly crew at Sturtevant's took on the challenge. Ryan was my boot fitter. Friendly, positive and competent, we spent over an hour trying different options to improve the heel pocket fit with lifts and J and C bars. Great experience solving a problem together. Final testing on a steep snowfield still outstanding but I'd come back for a second round if I need further tweaks.”
“I bought some new skates here today!
Brian was very knowledgeable about skates and he answered all my questions in a kind and professional manner.
My new skates broke on the first ride and Brian was quick to fix my problem!
Overall very professional and I will certainly be coming back to Shop Task next time I need anything inline skate related!”
“Jeremy was so helpful!! He made sure each shoe he brought out fit properly, then watched how I walked in them to make suggestions. It was very busy, but he was able to fully help me, while assisting other customers. Best shoe shopping experience ever!”
“These are the kinds of local shops that I want to support, rather than buy everything online. I know next to nothing about skateboarding. Nate had 5 surfskate models in stock, and he welcomed us to try them out in the store. He talked us through pros and cons. He also helped us replace wheels on an inherited skateboard that weren't optimal for our bumpy road. Very chill vibe, will be back.”
“Jess helped us today and had great knowledge and care about our shoe needs. She brought out many pairs to try on after our diagnostic foot evaluation. We both discovered new things about our foot size, arch, width, etc. We highly recommend going to New Balance. The shoes are like walking on air and the price was the same on Amazon!! Thank you, Jess. Our trips will be so much more enjoyable!”
“Great selection with kind and knowledgeable staff.
Stopped in for the first time today as a complete beginner to flies. These guys instantly greeted me, showed me the flies I was looking for, gave me pointers on their mechanics and use, and kindly answered all of my questions. It was a terrific introduction as a newbie, and I guarantee I'll be back many times as I gain more experience.”
“Kyle and the team at Seattle Ski and Snowboard were amazing! We came in ski shopping for the first time and had very little knowledge, but Kyle was incredibly patient, kind, and helpful throughout the whole process. He took the time to explain what to look for in ski boots, including flex, last, fit, and overall comfort, and helped us with the fittings without ever making us feel rushed or pressured. His staff was just as sweet and knowledgeable, and the whole experience felt welcoming and educational. We left feeling much more confident about what we needed. Awesome experience overall — highly recommend!”
“We were greeted by the entire staff and they promptly offered assistance. They were thorough and knowledgeable of the products and experience levels. Overall a great experience and exceeded our expectations. Congrats on the new location!”
“Always the best place for product advice. Love that they carry staples like Farriers Formula, tack cleaner and hoof oil. I feel like the ladies will always give me a well vetted product with sound advice. Can't recommend this place enough.”
“Risan is amazing! They have provided custom gear for Lake Washington High School gymnastics for many years and they always do a great job. This year we asked for a specialty puffy paint for our hoodies and they turned out fantastic. They also provided a store for us with a few different logos so people could order fan gear. The orders received are always accurate and come in very quickly. Thank you Kristin for all of your hard work and caring thought you put into each order.”
“Fairly large selection of cleats in stock. Even more on their website. The gentleman who was working with us gave us a shipping code that allowed for free shipping from New Jersey on priority mail! Would recommend stopping here for your soccer needs”
“I got a volleyball net from this company and the employees were very friendly, professional, helpful, prompt, and affordable. I highly recommend this company for ordering any of your sporting needs.”
“My family purchased three pairs of shoes from Brooks today. Bailey, the fit expert, was incredibly helpful and patient. She listened to our needs, made suggestions, and helped us find the perfect shoes. All while smiling and enjoying her work.!”
“Kylie and Millie were a huge help and absolutely wonderful! I needed to return a heavy bike rack and they helped me transport it from my car. I couldn’t have done it without them!”

“Larry helped us choose and purchase the best home gym equipment for the space and our needs. Super helpful and knowledgeable. Customer service was awesome and he's very personable and great to work with. He followed up and made sure we were happy with the set up when installed too. Really nice to have this level of customer service! Highly recommend Top Fitness! Ask for Larry Hawkins 💪”
“Drove over from Poulsbo after being frustrated by the big box stores. Best customer service experience I’ve ever had. Bought a Mizuno glove at the same price as online. Jim went the extra mile and did a little more breaking in on my son’s glove he had with him too. For Jim it’s all about helping kids and enjoying your job. Help out a tiny business in the era of online and no customer service! In my mind gloves especially are so personal you can’t buy one online, it has to be tried in person. I’m dropping my old mitt off for a re-lacing next. Cheers”

“Great crew at Rack N Road. So helpful getting me the right equipment for my build out including all options. I'll use this company in the future as I keep building.”
“My Fiance grew up skating and wanted to get a new board so he can start teaching our son, and they hooked us up with a custom complete for a great price. Even gripped the deck and mounted the trucks, attached the wheels etc. didn't mind our son running around like a mad man. Pretty cool spot.”
“Phenomenal staff that didn’t waste any time on my exercise of the right to swap out a pair of shoes that didn’t quite work for me. They even gave me completely new insoles. Love both the process and the hassle free end result. Thanks! BZ/JUSTICE SMILES, pllc”
“My daughter wanted to try out archery here. The staff are kind, patient, and helpful especially with beginners. Robin was a great instructor! She gave my daughter great tips. We will definitely come back 🙂”
“Great selection of shoes. I have bought two shoes from here recently and will keep coming back. Rodalfo (I think that’s how you spell his name) gives excellent customer service”
“I came in with my daughter to buy her all of her first hockey gear, and the associate named Cash did an amazing job helping us fit and choose everything. We're new to hockey and had a bunch of questions and he was calm and focused. We will be returning for our future hockey purchases.”
“I just started canoeing after a long hiatus from paddling and I was checking out gear for my new hobby. I ran across a hat for boating and found a style that I liked. Unfortunately, the color and size selection was limited. So... I went to the manufacturer's website. There I found a much better selection.
Then I saw a color that I thought was... well, hideous, to be frank. I had to take a closer look. What appeared to be a drab floral pattern was in fact a pattern of mushrooms. I studied it. And much like a fungus, it began to grow on me. I checked the availablilty and it wasn't in stock in my size. Oh well.
The next morning had me thinking about that hat. I checked the website again. It said that it was available at the flagship store in Ballard, two hours away. So I hopped in my car and took a drive.
The hat is perfect.
The store? Seattle funky. Not my style. Corduroys, knits and drab Seattle colors predominate. I tried to find something to get for my wife, who likes jewel tones. It didn't happen.
That said, if you're into this style then Kavu is a winner. Bags, hats, funky pants and shirts galore. The store is neatly laid out and has a great feel to it. The young woman working there was very helpful and pleasant.
I can see myself going back for another hat someday. I'll refrain from posting a picture of myself wearing the hat. That'll save you from a laughter injury.”
“They have some fantastic items on display. Was able to find a really cool shirt, and I got a silver coin they had on display. Definitely a must visit for any big sports fan. They have more than just local teams on display.”
“they gave us one of the surf instructors wave maker because they were out of stock, they are SO NICE HERE we were desperate for the part!!! they you so much we will come back asap!!!!!!!”
