I was looking for a cooler (certain brand, size) to replace the one we have been using at picnics for many years and it starts to break a bit here and there. I saw on line that they carry the same brand, same model, just a new look. It was on sale, so I had to stop by, right? I was in the area, so it was easy, but didn't park in their lot. Big store, but not overwhelming, with lots of merchandise, great selection. It was easy to find the cooler section, they had the model we were looking for, on sale, so we picked and chose since they had a few and off we went to pay for it. Nice customer service, good shopping experience. We will return since it was so easy and fast to shop here!

I have been to a few Big 5 Sporting Goods in the past. There is one literally 5 minutes away from…read moremy house and I do love that store a lot. After I had lunch with a friend of mine yesterday, I decided to stop by at this particular store in Van Nuys to check out the store, and if they had what I was looking for. Yes they did! I needed boxing gloves since I take a class, a women's sports bra in black, (was on clearance rack 50% off). Not too shabby. I also needed a folding chair that I can use to sit outside. I found the exact chair in the color that I was looking for. It was $15 NOT/including tax. It even has a cup holder which is a plus. I also needed a Foam Roller for my back. Got that too. Last, but not least, I needed 2 and half pound dumbbells. They had pink and black. I went with the pink color. That's all I needed from this store yesterday. Everything was nicely organized, got a very nice welcome from 2 of their employees, store was clean with decent sized parking lot, and they did have a bathroom. Love Big 5. They truly have anything & everything for all of your athletic needs. Go get what you need!!

Grateful for my local Big 5 Sporting Goods in Van Nuys!…read more Recently was knocking somethings off my "checklist"... Really just a I'm going on a retreat for a full week and need some update things including a queen size air mattress, tarp, miscellaneous items and compression socks (from my recent ankle tumble via tropical storm in SoCal with more to come on my trip lol finally 90% better... I digress). I received good customer service both on the floor and at checkout though super personable from the Big 5 Van Nuys crew floating about more so. My cashier was cool, but 100% ready to get off work... The vibe was there.... I feel you girl, that's why I'm on vacay... Take one too, they're good for you (reset)!! They have a huge selection of sporting goods, athletic wear, swim gear and items including cool pools, camping supplies, fishing as well as hunting equipment and much more. The quality of items is solid, though the small light I purchased with a clip was the one item that didn't pull through for me as it didn't work after adding batteries to it several times, I did have other lights I had purchased from this location previously in the past that do still hold up well. Some items are locked on display like the headlamps, but you can find someone easily to assist you. Everything I was looking for I found and/or was guided to where it would be in this staple location just above Van Nuys Blvd & Sherman Way. They have an easy entrance parking lot and even when a little busier seem to keep things flowing from start to finish... Making this B5SG clear, clean and under control... I'm not sure what the manager specific reviews are regarding, but everyone I interacted with was helpful.

Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of what I expected from a specialty running store. When I asked about the differences between two running shoes, I was told it was "personal preference" without any explanation of how the shoes actually differed. When I asked about two custom insole options, the employee simply read the product names back to me rather than explaining the features or benefits of each. What surprised me most was that the one topic every employee seemed eager to discuss was the VIP membership. I learned far more about the membership program than I did about the products I came in to buy. I also found several employees dismissive when I asked follow-up questions, which made the experience feel more frustrating than helpful. The entire reason I chose a specialty running store instead of shopping online was to get knowledgeable guidance. Instead, I left feeling like I had learned almost nothing and would have been better off doing my own research. Very disappointing experience.

With the store in my sites I pulled a hard right without rolling the SUV I was driving and parked... Amazing surf shop for goodie , surf boards and skateboards. Grabbed my Val Surf logo sweatshirt and a weird Nike shirt cause it was kick a$$ white with hot pink drawing... Now I explored and found great surf gear from major brands I won't mention but the shoe selection was amazing, especially the VANS. The suede leather Vans were awesome and I desperately wanted a few pairs but I didn't have room in luggage.... As I was walking past UGG's display they had the sand color version and again if I had room I'd bought a pair... Super cool " Dude " handling cashier duty's was awesome. The over the top skateboard decks blew me away located behind him and I only wish I was 12 again so I pester my parents for one... we had a good laugh about age and away I went... NOTE : Speaking of killer items and this wasn't for sale was wooden shoe by Vans with images of old school pro skaters including the "Godfather of pool skating" Mr Tony Alva! For those who don't know him well he was a member of the Zephyr Competition Skateboarding Team, or the Z-Boys.... Can't wait to come back and I'll have a bigger luggage bag for more gear.
