OMG! If you're a fan of Dick's Sporting Goods, you MUST visit Public Lands, in Framingham's…read moreShopper's World. This is one of their three locations in the U.S. and is actually owned by DSG. 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.

Well organized, stupid clean, very presentable with a rock climbing wall available during certain hours earlier in the day. Sorry i didn't take note of the hours. The staff were reorganizing, no one approached me when looking for sneakers but that's quite alright i didn't need help this night. They have plenty of bottle brands, camping gear, sports gear, athleisure brands. Def know who and what they are so will be back for necessities and deals!

I wouldn't recommend this particular location. While products are run of the mill and in line with…read moremanufacturers, customer service was abysmal. Upon entering and walking through the store multiple sales associates made eye contact with me & did not engage or ask if I needed assistance. After asking for help, positioning myself in a place where I was easily accessible to any sales person, I watched as each salesperson helped another patron around me. It took persistently initiating a dialogue to gain some semblance of help that was quickly discontinued. As a young person of color, I will not be returning to this REI location, but will bring my business elsewhere. Really a same, I've enjoyed REI in the past but this experience has been discouraging.

I had to swing in to return a couple of items I'd purchased online and the woman behind the counter was so very accommodating and sweet. There absolutely ZERO hassles. Walked around and was graciously helped by a couple of employees as I was trying to determine the best hiking pants that could carry me through a number of temperature changes. So many good brands to choose from with so having deep discounts too.

Two floors with plenty of sports gear…read more You can find all the apparel, men's, women's, & kids, on the first floor & I believe the equipment on the second floor. Located across from the Natick Mall, it's one of my favorite stores to frequent. You can catch a bunch of sales on popular brands such as Nike, Patagonia, Adidas, etc. Sometimes you can find their shoes on sale; Hoka Bondi 8s are currently on sale by the way ;)) Had a great experience today here. I was looking for an item that the app had said was in stock at this location. A worker assisted us in searching for the size so was looking for. Unfortunately, they didn't have it/couldn't find it but it was nice that they tried. Parking: lots of parking available!

Never had issue here! Love DSG!…read more Ample parking, always a huge store they don't have all the frills of the new one but overall we enjoy this location. They have sneaker selection which we were looking at and trying on, staff was friendly to us and asked us if we needed sizing right away. They have walls Yeti and Stanley tumbler and bottles which is great! A ton of apparel, sports gear and more! Download the app, save 20 off on $100 or more purchase. There are some brand exclusions so read the fine print or ask the cashier to try the coupon anyways!

Came in to return a pair of boots. I asked if the ones I…read morefound online could be shipped to my house if I paid for it in the store. The rude moron behind the counter aggressively says "the online system is down" Ok... I guess I'll just return them for store credit or something? Nope! He tells me to put my debit card in the machine and proceeds to CHARGE me $115. I had one foot out the door when I hear him yelling at me to come back. I asked how long it would take to go back onto my account he snapped at me and rudely said "two seconds" I had to hold myself back. Don't be rude to me after you just charged me for a pair of boots I was trying to return. This trip costed me time and money. Will not be purchasing northface products going forward. What an experience. Great way to take care of your customers

Marc was very helpful, knowledgeable and took his time showing me different kayaks and explaining their features. He was outstanding.

Their staff is professional and their prices are competitive to any other retailers.

I ordered some Thule rack parts to fit my Mazda CX-9 with flush rails. I originally was quoted on a…read moreCargo box too but decided against it. The man said it was easy for them to put together and I said OK I'll get the rails and footings for over $600 and that was with a 25% discount for a Labor Day sale . NO WHERE was there a cost stated for any installation, which for this would be putting the pieces together. Which they can do in their sleep.Maybe the associate Renate was intimidated by a large man complaining that the easy installation was taking two hours more than he was quoted and he didnt have the time anymore. I ordered the parts later by phone, never a mention of the installation costs, Today when he called to say the parts were in he asked if I wanted them to put it together I said Sure, he then said it would be $145 more for this. I said it is no where on the contract of anything about any install cost and that should be quoted before. He said he did I said no he didnt and maybe he was intimidated by the very angry large man pacing the showroom. Now I look at the receipt and in very small type is "owes 145" then under it is "owes 35" which mean nothing to me because I paid in full via a card,but that is their way of saying they showed me the installation fee? Now what. is the $35 for? are they going to add that on? I feel like calling my card company and cancelling the order.

The staff there was extremely courteous, and made my 6 year old daughter feel at home. They were so nice to here, and Oliver the dog is so sweet. They set my daughter up with a great package that's cute and cost effective. I came in a day later and love my set up. They also saved me from buying an overpriced set of goggles that fogs up! What really sticks out though, is when I came in to get my ski-boots refitted. I'm new to this all, but they took great care of me and now my boots fit like a comfortable glove. Ski Haus is awesome. Make an appointment and start an awesome adventure.
