Once you find the style you like, now you get to find a sales person who goes into the back and hunts for your size. We're not fans of this technique. And the prices are significantly higher than online. The convenience of having it "now" isn't worth it to me. No, Dick's isn't selling guns any more. A bummer as I didn't have much to look at while my wife was looking at shoes. [Review 2041 of 2024 - 3743 in North Carolina - 23061 overall]

Ninety minutes before I had to check for my flight, I visited the Park Road store with my empty roller bag.

After an intensive hour of sorting options, I had a stellar collection of nicely fitting gear from head to toe. Our selections worked great for my winter trip and I'm still enjoying my gear. Heartfelt kudos to Caroline and the entire team at Great Outdoor Provisions. I can't imagine any other place in Charlotte where pro staff would gear me up with humor and brisk purpose.

I could see in too far distance Charlotte Running Company where I met another saint and fellow Brad: https://www.charlotterunning.com/brad He refused payment when he called me an Uber to the hospital. His words were more than just sympathetic, but empathetic as he told me the tales - what would later be diagnosed in my case - broke his clavicle 3 times! Upon days later getting the super pain pills from CVS (too painful to leave the house + waking a few times from a drug-induced haze after the pharmacy had closed, + it being a Sunday once) I thankfully returned to CRC and S & SS with flowers, herbs, and vegetables from Nut Hill Farm - where I help a 70+ year-old brother-in-Christ Jim Mundorf. As I was telling the bigger and better Brad just yesterday, it was my most painful injury only to be outdone possibly by when I fell on a barbed wire fence while climbing a tree - at the wise age of 10- & grabbed the wrong branch (I knew it seconds before). Gratefully, the next-door neighbor (Ms. Rutledge, R.N. Ret.) heard my wails, cries, and screams and pulled my of the fence i was hanging from. Wanna see the scar:-!

The store itself is spacious and well organized, with a good selection of Patagonia's outdoor apparel and gear. Everything is displayed nicely and the environment feels clean and inviting, making it easy to browse. That said, the pricing is full retail, and Patagonia products can be pretty expensive. Coming from the San Francisco Bay Area where Patagonia outlet stores are more common, I'm used to finding better deals. Because of that, I'm a bit hesitant to pay full price and tend to compare with other outdoor retailers like REI, where you can sometimes find similar gear at more competitive prices. The South End location itself is lively and fun to explore, with lots of nearby restaurants, coffee shops, and dessert spots. It's a great area to walk around and make a few stops while you're there. Parking can be a bit challenging in South End, especially during busy times, so plan accordingly. Insider tip: If Patagonia runs a seasonal sale, this would be a great place to come back and browse again. Overall, a nice store in a great neighborhood--definitely worth a look if you're already shopping or dining in South End.
