I recently purchased and picked up a Christmas gift at this Dick's. It's only the second time I've…read morebeen here, and first in years. While the store is well stocked with helpful and professional folks it's just a personal decision that I choose not to patronize the Dick's stores due to, in my opinion, bad corporate decision making. Again, a personal belief that public companies should maintain political neutrality and avoid the adoption of woke policies, and focus instead on their primary objective of providing valuable products and services to customers. It appears that I'm far from the only one who feels this way but it shouldn't come as a surprise because at company adopting controversial and divisive policies should know that they likely run the risk of alienating a significant portion of their customer base. It's probably the case since Dick's continues to drop in profitability due to the nature of policies the company either directly or indirectly supported. Don't get me wrong, free speech is vital regardless, and free trade and business should always be protected. I'm just personally ticked at any company, regardless of politics or beliefs, who feel it necessary to implement, in my opinion, stupid policies on their customers and employees. Common sense dictates that maintaining political neutrality best allows companies to focus on serving all customers, regardless of their personal beliefs, and ensures that they do not lose business due to divisive politics. Bottom line: If companies are truly committed to addressing social issues, they should focus on substantive actions, such as improving working conditions, investing in education and training programs, or contributing to local community initiatives.

I love DICK'S Sporting Goods, but this location isn't AS big as the one I'm used to shopping at in…read moreColorado. They don't carry many of the same brands, or as many options of them, in store. Their selection for The North Face, Patagonia, etc. is minimal. However, every time I come to this location, staff are friendly and the store is clean. If I happen to need assistance, someone is willing to help. Thankfully they carry a nice selection of workout apparel, including Nike, Under Armour, CALIA, and their very own DSG brand. They also have a nice variety of sport-specific gear-- baseball, football, basketball, soccer, etc. They offer leisure and/or sport equipment, such as for cycling, hiking, indoor exercise/training, fishing, hunting, etc. Their shoe department is sufficient, but it isn't extensive. They offer the major shoe brands for running, walking, training, and lifestyle use, but you're not going to find A TON of styles for each; it isn't a SHOE store with that kind of inventory. But it's nice to see what you can get in-store, or if the store can order something for you from their website (dickssportinggoods.com). I love HIIT workouts at OTF and I enjoy sports and being outdoors, so this store is my little slice of heaven for meeting all my sport-related needs!

If it can be printed, we can make it -- and the best part is that we produce everything in-house, so you'll always get original pieces that can't be replicated. Although we started off producing sports gear, we've honed in on our design chops to better serve our clients with anything they need -- whether it's embroidery, screen prints, logo creation, or uniforms, our prolific print shop's got you covered. So, if you're in need of impeccable service and superior products, just drop us a line.

While walking through downtown Mobile, we ran across this wonderful sports apparel store. Obviously…read morethey sell more SEC gear than anything but they have tons of professional sports jerseys, accessories, etc. The best part of my visit was Bear (the owners black lab). Bear followed us around the store showing us his favorite things - which as you may have guessed by his name, it was all Crimson Tide gear! Bear was so pleasant and his owner was just as kind. Very very helpful. If he doesn't own the store, he sure treats it like his own which is everything you'd want in an employee. I ended up buying some new gear for my dad for Father's Day. A hat and a shirt ran me about $80. I thought that was steep but unless there's a coupon or sale offered online, you'll pay the same. We'd also like to support small businesses anyways so this was a no brainer purchase. Great variety and many things I've never seen before that I'd love to have. I'll definitely make sure to visit The Vault for my game day apparel next time I'm in Mobile.

Metzger's has been the preferred choice for fine men's and women's clothing since 1919. In a town…read moresteeped in the southern traditions Metger's products and staff fulfill the mission flawlessly. As a family owned business they remember their customers and strive to make the shopping experience comfortable, low pressure, and so that you really feel good about the way you look. Metzler's is located off of Dauphin Street, on the service road in front of the shopping center that holds Pottery Barn, Williams Sonoma, Dumbwaiter and Jos A Bank. The store seems to share a parking lot with a bank, however there is always ample parking and ease of store access. The lot is clean and secure as well as allows for a minimum of traffic buildup along that busy stretch of service road. The store is always well stocked, clean, and possesses plenty of staff to be able to serve the needs of their customers. Its well lit, and is separated right down the middle men's and women's. Stocking the latest in southern professional and casual styles, they have Hart Schaffner and Marx, Adolfo, Chaps suits and sport coats in all sizes. However if its a special occasion and some planning, they can custom order and make you one! While they don't rent tuxedos, they also do custom fit Tails and tux's for Mardi Gras balls or whatever special occasion it may be. As a locally owned, family business, they do business with others in the area. Metzger's has bow ties from a southern company that makes handcrafted bow ties with peacock feathers, and deer bones etc in them. They also stock shirts and trousers out of a company in Dothan, and show the environmentally conscience side by stocking, Save the Duck alternative down jackets etc. They also have the latest in "prep" wear, Southern Proper, North Face, Ducks Head, etc. It doesn't stop there, they can also get you a new shaving kit, cologne, aftershave, shampoo conditioner etc. They also have a great selection of men's accessories, cufflinks, shirt stays, suspenders, etc. The staff is what caps off this Mobile fashion Icon, they are some of the friendliest, most knowledgeable guys around. Alan and Paul have been my primary contacts there and I have never been more impressed with a clothing store staff. They genuinely make me feel as if they care, and even steer me away from things that maybe don't look the best. They understand southern men's fashion and will push you as far as comfortable outside of your normal fashion box, or simply find you that next go to shirt or power tie. The tailoring done is done in house and is complimentary for the lifetime of a purchase and I must say, they are exceptionally good at it. All in all, they are my fashion go to, and without a doubt I have absolutely no hesitation about recommending them to anyone who needs that new suit, short, sport coat or even tailgate apparel. They have great team shirts and seem to have something to fit any and every occasion.

Thanks for ruining Christmas for me. This store is nothing…read morebut a bunch of liars and scammers with mislabeled merchandise that when you go to try to ring up it's two to three times what it's listed at on the Shelf. I just went to go buy an Under Armour windbreaker on clearance rack and they had the shelf label $14.98.... Not 14.98 and up just 14.98. Then I picked up an Adidas jogging jacket they had on a rack with the price $29.98...not 29.98 and up.... I get up to the register and they hit me with like over a hundred dollar total... This is deceptive marketing and has ruined my Christmas as I don't have much money but I wanted to get my wife something nice but I'm not spending 100 bucks on 2 items that according to their clearly marked signs shouldn't have exceeded 50 bucks total. You just lost a many years long customer customer over this I hope it was worth it. Seems Academy has gone the way of Dicks and Field and Stream when it comforts screwing over customers.

It was okay until the manager arrived.... I was able to find a shoe I wanted secondary to the one I…read morepreviously wanted because none were in my size. Then I see the price match sign. I find a cheaper price at Dick's sporting good store on their website. So the manager takes my phone from my hands and begins scrolling on my phone and says it has to be the exact color. I find the exact color then it has to be the exact same size. Because they were out of stock IN MY SIZE ONLINE. She said she couldn't match it. This is the rudest manager I have ever met as a customer. You're sign says you'll match the price not "select stores" not "same size/color" what the heck? You do realize we are going through an epidemic where EVERYONE IS STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY. I need these shoes to work at a SCHOOL. I'm not buying pumas for looks I'm buying Hokas for pain management. And as a manager I KNOW she could have matched the price but thats the point she didnt! Because she doesnt care about those lesser or struggling. I've never had an issue till today and will proudly say I will NEVER frequent again.
