Arc'teryx makes the highest quality (and best looking) outdoor gear on the planet. The problem is…read moreyou are going to need to refinance your car, get a second job, and sell some of your children for medical experiments in order to afford their gear. This store has most of their current clothing line, but only a few select pieces of gear. Prices are absurd, so you will often find this stuff MUCH cheaper on the internet.

Five stars for absolutely first class customer service on a walk-in repair job…read more Short version: Through blatant and admitted poor judgement and misuse (note to self: do NOT cram ten pounds of shit into a five-pound bag), I managed to bust and hideously mutilate the main zipper on my favorite little Arcteryx dayback. Phoned the store, recounted my idiotic tale, asked if the factory did zipper replacements. Was told that if I could bring it in, they'd look at it and tell me if it was feasible. Upon inspecting the bag, the assistant manager insisted on sending it to the mother ship for a new zipper under warranty, even though I repeatedly told him that the rupture was my fault. Factoring in labor, bookkeeping, and the prepaid FedEx they returned it to me with, they lost a lot of money on my dinky hundred-dollar packsack. I own a half-dozen of their bags and garments. The designs aren't always perfect, but I'll keep buying their stuff when it mostly meets my needs, because their after-sales service is bricklike.

A Montréal institution! I went when I was a kid, and went back this week to get outfitted for cross…read morecountry skiing. I was a bit dismayed to discover that they no longer sell secondhand skis, that was such a great service to the community, but in the end I went with new and was super happy with my decision. They offered an excellent price for the whole kit - boots, skis, and poles. They are pretty basic but exactly what I need, lightweight and comfortable and just my size. The service from everyone was friendly, chill, helpful, funny, just great. I love that they have a quality control station where someone makes sure everything you bought is in good working order before you go. And I love how much outdoor equipment they have from Montreal companies. Now... if it'll just stop raining...

So you're looking for skis or you're looking for hockey equipment or maybe a snowboard. This is…read moredefinitely a place you need to check out. Poubelle du Ski has been around for a long time and they know their stuff. They also have outdoor active wear like pants and coats. Some notes on ambiance. This place is normally packed so be patient. They'll get you what you need but sometimes the place is busting at the seams so a little patience goes a long way. Éric and Yan helped me out this time around and when I tell you these guys know what they're doing I mean it. I'm a hard for for boots both hockey and ski but these guys knew exactly what to grab if one bit wasn't working. My visit to be fitted for ski boots and hockey skates took a couple of hours but again that's down to me being a hard fit. Don't feel rushed by the atmosphere, take your time and pick the right boot or skate or coat or whatever it is you're looking for. The staff will never rush you.

Really fantastic place. Great equipment and reasonable prices even compared wth shopping online…read more Brilliant service. Patrick and Viken are real pros. Viken improved my shooting form incredibly in half an hour and set up my bow with a new sight and arrow rest. Really friendly atmosphere with people popping in to talk archery. Equally comfortable in French and English. This is my new store for archery from now on! Big thumbs up!

I'll be generous and go with three stars because the store truly does have an amazing selection of…read moremerchandise for all sorts of outdoor activities, stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, biking, camping, hiking, fishing and hunting. The selection of turkey decoys alone is remarkable. I have never seen so many turkey decoys together in one place in my life! The store is nicely laid out and it's pretty easy to find things once you arrive in the section for your preferred activity. So, why only three stars? The prices are insane. I was browsing hiking skirts and dresses. I saw a skirt on liquidation that I thought was cute and was oh this is probably like $10. NO, try $70! Every single dress I was interested in cost $100 or more. Granted they were nice brands like Prana but still. You can get very comparable stuff online or lower priced retailers like Marshalls or Walmart. Kind of fun to browse and I'd recommend going just to see the selection but my bf and I both walked out of this store with nothing. Prices way too high!

It's also really well set up and very nice. We came here looking for several camping items and some fishing gear. It loses 2 stars 'cuz: 1- I don't understand what the hype is all about it's all overpriced stuff you can find for cheaper at Walmart or Canadian Tire or Home Depot or Sports Expert or Atmosphere or... They did seem to have a good sale going on for a lot of stuff but I don't see why I wouldn't check elsewhere first. 2- they had so many employees (and very helpful, which yes, excellent customer service I'll give them that), but when we asked specifically about barbless hooks for fishing and for hooks made without lead (as we recently discovered most fishing hooks and lures do still contain lead --- i know-- wtf is that about?? But that's a whole notha can of worms, pun intended) ...anywoot when we asked about those things their staff, though very nice, was not aware that their hooks did in fact contain lead and while trying to be helpful recommended us a brand of hook that "contains chemicals know to cause cancer to the state of California" as per the package. So yah I guess I was just expecting more and it wasn't all that. We left without anything we were looking for. I would go back to enjoy their endless selection of lures and bait and such in the fishing section but it's a bit overwhelming I don't know if I'd be more inclined to actually spend money here.

I was very dissatisfied with this and will never return. Prices where good and I was thinking g if making a league purchase with them but this bad experience means I will NEVER GO BACK. Now I'll have to market place or eBay the other pair and hope I can recover my money.

I was looking for gloves that I could use for outdoor photo sessions in the winter (the ones with the special rubber pads on the finger tips to help grip things) and the sales guy knew exactly what I wanted, helped me get the right size and took as much time with me as with the customer before me who was buying a kayak. I also needed warm boots and the clerk in that department asked lots of questions to understand my needs, then made several recommendations. He found my size, helped me choose the right socks - and even told me about special discounts that were not advertised. When I approached the cash the pay for everything, the HUGE pre-Christmas lineup almost made me put everything back... But I was VERY impressed at how quickly I moved through the line. It's nice to shop at a store that actually staffs the check-out counter with plenty of people so customers don't have to wait to pay. Great experience and would definitely recommend that you shop here for all your sportswear needs!
