Big 5 Sporting Goods offers a full-line product offering in a traditional sporting goods store format, averaging approximately 11,000 square feet. The product mix includes athletic shoes, apparel and accessories, as well as a broad selection of outdoor and athletic equipment for team sports, fitness, camping, hunting, fishing, tennis, golf, winter and summer recreation and roller sports. Customers praise the helpful and pleasant staff, who have assisted with finding specific items and even accommodating requests like bringing a bike inside to park safely. The store may be slightly run-down or outdated in some locations, but it maintains an okay variety of sports products, especially for the total square footage. While it may not carry the most niche equipment, the store is well-suited for non-professional players, particularly those under 18. Prices at Big 5 Sporting Goods are described as decent, though not a steal. Customers are advised to compare prices online but appreciate the in-person shopping experience, as the store has saved the day for those needing last-minute sports equipment. Overall, the Big 5 location near the Ballard Bridge is praised for its excellent customer service.
