After an incredibly frustrating experience at the Fairfield Dick's Sporting Goods, I felt compelled…read moreto recognize an employee who truly understands customer service. I purchased a pair of softball cleats for my daughter online. Unfortunately, they ended up being too small. She wore them briefly while sitting in the dugout at practice, immediately realized they hurt her feet, and took them off. The cleats were essentially brand new. When I attempted to exchange them at the Fairfield store, I was met with resistance from management. Anna Pintane refused the return and was extremely condescending throughout the interaction. Instead of listening to my explanation, she lectured me about how cleats should be worn around the house before practice and even told me that if they didn't fit, I should sell them to a teammate or on Facebook Marketplace. I couldn't believe that was the solution being offered by a store manager. The entire interaction left me feeling dismissed and disrespected as a customer. Fortunately, I decided to try the Pleasant Hill location. What a completely different experience. Mike McKensy (store manager) was absolutely wonderful. He listened, understood the situation, treated me with respect, and promptly processed the return of the cleats that were still essentially new. He was professional, friendly, and focused on helping the customer rather than finding reasons not to. Mike turned a very negative experience into a positive one and restored some of my faith in Dick's Sporting Goods. Customer service like his is exactly what keeps people coming back. If you're shopping at Dick's, I highly recommend the Pleasant Hill store and especially Mike. He is an outstanding example of how customers should be treated. Thank you, Mike, for your professionalism and for making what should have been a simple exchange actually simple.

I met Whitney in the shop area, she greeted me with a smile. I explained the reason for my visit. She advised me that the Technician was on break, then she then told me to bring my bike into the shop and someone would assist me. It was just a few minutes later, I met Hadrian. He and Whitney weren't sure how to make it fold either initially. Then, I remembered I had a manual ony phone. I showed it them. Hadrian and Whitney figured it out immediately. The next thing I knew, my bike was folded!!! He did it so fast, I barely saw what he did. It was as if he had been doing this for years. I tried and still couldn't fold it. I asked him to please show me again, he immediately obliged me. They absolutely positively unequivocally made my day! They were so welcoming, polite, courteous, personable. They provided me with outstanding customer service. REI is fortunate to have them as employees. Thank you Whitney and Hadrian for a job well done, I truly appreciate you.

They consistently have a strong selection, whether you're looking for something new or digging through their consignment inventory for a solid find. What I really appreciate is the balance they strike. Great inventory across handguns, shotguns, and rifles, but also a staff that actually takes the time to help. They're knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and not pushy, which makes a big difference. You can ask questions, get real answers, and feel comfortable the whole time. It's the kind of place you keep coming back to because you know what you're going to get--good selection, fair experience, and people who know their stuff. Highly recommend if you're anywhere in the area.

Thanks to the VIP program, I was able to exchange them within the 90-day return window and work with Travis again. Travis is knowledgeable, patient, and great at explaining how each shoe moves and supports your foot. Based on his demonstration, I switched to the Brooks Glycerin Flex, and I'm glad I did. During a run, I stepped into a hole in the pavement, and I truly believe the stability of the shoe helped keep the injury from being much worse. Road Runner Sports is an excellent resource for runners and athletes because the staff considers your stride, foot strike, comfort, and activity level--not just the shoe's appearance. The prices are comparable to other retailers, but here you also receive expert guidance and the added protection of the VIP return policy. Congratulations to Travis and his future bride on their upcoming Halloween wedding! I definitely recommend this location.

Important: This review is specifically about Road Runner Sports' online sales and customer service…read moreexperience, not their retail stores. I'm a VIP member of Road Runner Sports, so this experience was particularly disappointing. I placed an online order in early August for a pair of shoes that were on backorder, with an expected shipping date around mid-August. From then on, the expected shipping date kept getting pushed back week after week. Each time I followed up, I was reassured that the next expected date would be honored and that my order would be prioritized once the shoes became available. Based on those assurances, I decided not to purchase the shoes elsewhere. Unfortunately, these shoes are in high demand, and by the time I found out Road Runner Sports could not fulfill my order, they were no longer available elsewhere either. Today was the latest date I had been told to expect the shoes. When they didn't arrive, I contacted customer service, only to be told that the shoes were out of stock and that my order would simply be cancelled. To be clear, my frustration is not about the cancellation itself. I understand that inventory issues happen. My frustration is with the repeated delays and assurances that led me to believe my order would eventually be fulfilled. Had I been given accurate information earlier, I could have made other arrangements and purchased the shoes elsewhere. What made the situation even more frustrating was that customer service was of very little help, and despite specifically asking to speak with a customer service manager, I was not given the opportunity to speak with one. As a VIP member and loyal customer, I expected better communication and ownership of the issue. I would have much rather been told upfront that the order could not be fulfilled than be given repeated expected dates and assurances, only to end up with a cancelled order and no shoes after waiting for more than a month. I hope Road Runner Sports takes a closer look at how it handles backordered online purchases and customer-service escalations. This experience has left me very disappointed with the online sales operation, even though this review is not a reflection of their retail stores or in-store staff.

In the meantime, another customer had approached the counter and at the last minute I grabbed one more thing. Maile rung my items up and asked me if I wanted a bag. Then, she helped the other customer on the other side as her coworker tried appeasing me with other hat sizes. Every person working there seemed to have a smile and a FANTASTIC attitude!

I got fed up and one of my friends from Mexico was telling me about this store and how they have real leather cleats for a good price. I came today and the owner happened to be there, and he went out of his way to help me find the perfect cleat. He played pro in Mexico and as someone who's played competitively their whole life it was refreshing to talk to someone about cleats who actually cares and knows what they're talking about. With all of his help we decided that the Olmeca cleats were my best bet, and they had real, quality leather that was straight from Mexico. From the second I put them on I could tell how much better they were than the synthetic dogsh*t that the main name brands use, and after taking them out and getting some runs in with them, they are exactly what I'm looking for. The craziest part is that they were only 113 after tax, where most of the cleats I've gotten in the past were significantly lower quality and are upwards of 280 dollars. This store is an amazing deal, make sure to show up and support, you'll get way more out of it for less money than any other store in the area
