I love the REI in Garden City. Every employee, literally everyone, is so kind and helpful. They are…read morewilling to go the extra mile and never seem "bothered". REI has great outdoor brands and a decent selection. Prices range and things can be on the higher-end but it's no more expensive than the manufactures sites. I also appreciate that as a member I get perks like cash back, extended returns, etc.

Still five stars. We came in looking for a number of things. Kind of a scouting mission. REI has…read moreplenty to offer for hiking, camping, biking, kayaking, and more. We are looking for, among other things, a smaller tent (ours is huge) that we can easily lug around with us and REI has a large selection. We signed up for their membership several years ago. Just tell them your phone number when making a purchase and you get credit for the purchase. We picked up a UV protective t-shirt as a gift for someone. It was reasonably priced imho, very soft and moisture wicking. Brilliant. I should probably get myself one too. BTW, the company no longer offers bags. None. So bring a reusable bag if you plan to shop here. It's just another way to reduce waste and be a good steward. Some of the prices can be high, but not everything. They sell Patagonia which is an expensive brand, as well as other, more moderately priced items. You just have to know what you want and what you are willing to pay. If you check out the bulletin board upstairs, they offer guided excursions that look really fun. I check out their selection of hiking poles as I am looking to buy some. Everything from really reasonable basic models to foldable, light weight pricey models. So you have options. They have pet items. Personal care items. Clothes and shoes are upstairs. So many types of water bottles. Camping items for both the thru-hiker and the car-camper. Check them out. They are a good resource and the staff are friendly and happy to assist.

It is SUPER cramped, just FULL of cool stuff, you literally have to shuffle like a goomba though the aisles, but what fun, I had my daughter with me otherwise I would have shuffling through those aisles all day. The guy didn't say much, but pointed me in the right direction when I needed to find something. I will be returning soon!!

You literally have to go sideways between the racks. He has it all though from patches to chest plates for armor. His prices are pretty reasonable. You can get a lined olive drab army coat for 99 dollars. I needed a large duffle bad to hold some gear I need for a new job I got. I specifically told my wife I needed to go here. All places online or retail stores wanted a min of 50 dollars. I got a decent large bag water repellent for 30 dollars. Mr. Hans was helping someone out when we got there, and was attentive to ur needs too. He even gave us each a brand spanking new p38 can opener. ;)

They focus more on outdoor recreation & highly recommend checking them out if you're looking for more stock of these brands: Varley, Patagonia, North Face, Vuori, Free People, Fjallraven, Arc'teryx, Marine Layer, Stanley/Yeti/Owala/Brumate, & more. I found Public Lands to be a more elevated DSG & loved the store...Very nice displays on the floor! They have a lovely selection of women's, men's, and children's. I think very similar to REI too, but better? Haha. Will definitely be back.
