Their product knowledge is total, with no hard sell techniques, and their enthusiasm is infectious. Darcy spent plenty of time talking me through helmet fit and finding over-glasses goggles, and Jim took an hour for a full-on boot fitting and worked out a terrific ski/boots/bindings/poles package. Great experience. I will never shop for ski gear anywhere else.

Nomads is my favorite place to shop in Portland. They carry "adventure and active wear" for both…read moremen and women (aka comfy clothes that you can move in). They have the best selection of Vermont brand clothing (Ibex and Darn Tough) in the state. I went to the Ibex store in Boston and was disappointed because Nomads had a better selection. The selection of clothing is always changing in the store. I pop in about once a month to see what is new and I'm always amazed at the selection. The owner picks out every item in the store and she only carries brands that she personally believes in. Everyone that works there is very personable and helpful! If you follow them on social media you will see that they have seasonal sales. This is great because it is impossible to get Darn Tough socks on sale (unless you shop at Nomads)! If you haven't checked out this store on Commercial Street, I highly suggest you do!! #shoplocal

Once you manage to maneuver through the very small aisles you will find a vast array of different types of boots, camping supplies, flags, butt packs, gloves, hats and all kinds of different things. The prices vary quite a bit, to ridiculously cheap to absurdly expensive. Not sure why, perhaps it's the different brand names. Just make sure you check the price before you bring the item to the counter or you might get a big surprise. The people working here were friendly and I found a whole bunch of sundry items that I have been looking for a while. Not the largest store in Scarborough but definitely one of the most useful.

While I like many of the Toad&Co styles, I don't recommend going to this store. First of all, it's…read morein an area of outlets. This is not an outlet. Everything I saw was regularly priced. The real problem for me was despite the fact there were quite a few people working there on a not very busy weekday no one offered me one minute of salesmanship or assistance. No one said hello when I walked in. No one asked me if I needed help. A bunch of wanna be hipsters roamed lethargically about the store doing who knows what. Not much. I tried on a top. I liked it so went to to the register to purchase it. Nary a greeting was uttered by the lackluster guy at the register. And after paying more than I should have in retrospect for the top, this lamebrain took it from the tousled heap he had made of it on the counter and deposited said "heap" into the bag. Oh...he asked me first if I wanted a bag. I had a tiny purse with me and nothing else. Yes, I want a bag even though in your eyes you want to make me out as a wasteful person hence your question because in this day and age no one should want a bag...ever. I am not going to walk out of there with a shirt slung over my bare arm. "Just give me a freaking bag", I wanted to yell. My husband thought I should return the overpriced top after such crappy service but that meant I would have had to spend more time in this awful store. After the payment transaction and before leaving the counter, I took my too expensive top out of the bag and proceeded to fold it properly as should have been done to begin with. Wanna be hipster dude said: "I would have done that for you!" Well, dude, why didn't you? Don't bother with this store. Ugh.

Located in the Freeport Village Station, this outlet shop has a decent selection of men's and…read morewomen's fashion. I was surprised that in November, they're still selling cold weather clothing. Most shops have already moved on to the spring stuff by now, but Van Heusen had a good stack of sweaters and pullovers. In decent sizes, colors and wow, the prices were excellent. I picked up a decent maroon pullover and a pair of sleeping pants that both will keep me quite warm. Well marked down, too! [Review 10034 overall, 1618 of 2018.]

Great selection!! Great service!!!…read moreValue - you get what you pay for. It's not "cheap" because they don't carry cheap brands. There are some nice brands in the discount section in the back - decent discounts. Our sales consultant was really nice. She greeted us when we walked in and stayed close by to answer questions and find alternative suggestions for similar styles/designs/comfort. They are very customer focused, offering to look at stock from other stores. You can either pick up from another store, or have it shipped to the store closest to you. Easy parking lot - shared with other businesses. Easy to find location. I will have to come back to see what they have in discount section.

He also likes supporting small businesses vs. big box stores for purchase which led us here. Pulling up to the store it is very appealing with a large kayak selection all shapes , sizes and colors. The grounds are immaculately kept and pet friendly. Aaron and Russ were very experienced in their knowledge about all of the products for sale. My son had lots of questions and we were there over an hour. Other customers came as well and they were patient and attentive. My son purchased a kayak, paddles and paid a small fee to have a rack installed to drive it home. (See pic) They had a lot of tips to share and were very enthusiastic to share them. A side note I went there a few years ago for snowmobile gear and it was the same experience. Their prices are competitive but most importantly we need to continue to support small Maine businesses wherever we can. Also had fishing gear, sports clothing etc.. Look no further.
