Reviews

Best outdoors shop in area, maybe in all of Vancouver. Good selection of gear, friendly staff, reasonable prices and good return policies. 

My wife and I purchased a bunch of gear for a trekking trip in South America and the staff helped a lot. From help picking and fitting hiking boots to choosing a waterproof shell to finding a good day pack. 

It's a fun place just to look around as well. It inspires you to get outdoors and enjoy the surrounding nature!

Aside from the $5 membership fee and high prices (most at MRSP). The store is very well rounded and has most equipment in stock, whether it's for cycling, or for surfing. The store carries many quality named brands, but still lacks others. Arguably, the best part about this store is the warranty/customer satisfaction guarantee (yours with one time member purchase), anything goes wrong with your backpack 5 years from today? They got you cover! In addition to this, the staffs here are very knowledgeable and approachable.

Absolutely great staff, everyone knows a lot and is so cheerful! I also found here everything I need for my 5 month winter trip north. You need to pay CA$5 to even buy something but the prices are well worth it!!!

Simply the best outdoor store. A true Canadian icon. Knowledgeable staff and fair prices for great quality gear. Even better when you're lucky enough to find a clearance deal.

Really high prices. we know from the get go that they are high, but the staff are completely useless. And for what you are paying, I would expect for the staff to at least know about the product they have in stock, and how to use their inventory software.

Anyway. After being told 4 times that they did not carry what we were looking for. Even though online said they had it. We found what we wanted. Getting the proper fit was another issue all together. 

What should have been 5 minutes. 

Took 1.5 hours.
