As a outdoors and climbing equipment shop, Outside is one of the best in the Peak district, if not…read morethe country. They have great sales, the people are knowledgeable (although the guys in the climbing section can be a bit arrogant) and the stock is good, high quality stuff. In other words, the opposite end of the spectrum to Blacks or Millets. Come here if you need to buy a waterproof jacket, walking boots or maps. There's a cafe upstairs too, which is very popular on wet days with walkers and climbers. It's ok, but nothing to write home about.

I ordered a fleece from this store online and when it arrived, I had been sent the wrong one. When…read moreI checked online about exchanging it for the proper item, I found out they were sold out of the color/size I had originally ordered. I emailed the owner about a possible reimbursement, but he not only offered no additional discount for sticking me with an expensive fleece that I didn't want, he didn't even apologize for sending me the wrong thing! Will never be shopping here again.

Update: Two days…read moreafter "canceling" my order I received an email from them telling me that the shoes were in stock and they would be posting them "as soon as they had unpacked them". After a ten minute conversation (ten minutes more than it should have taken) with the person on the till I managed to get my order "Actually canceled" (quote the member of staff) and received my money back three days after that. The fact that they would say that my order was canceled then still try to proceed with the order is frankly terrible.

I returned a pair of royal scot wellies which had produced a leak after very little use to the…read moreStocksbridge store for inspection,and they confirmed that the Wellington was faulty. The assistant told me to take the Wellington away and dry out the neoprene lining as it was a health and safety issue then I was to take it to the Sheffield branch which was 12 miles away. When I said I was not prepared to do this she told me that there was nothing else she could do for me then. I have been trying to sort out the problem now for 4 weeks and just been passed from one person to another. I have tried to show my disappointment on their reviews but they won't print it. Think it's a case of he'll get fed up and go away. How wrong they can be. The after sales of this company is none existent Steve

Foothills outdoor shop is probably the best outdoors shop in Sheffield. This is not because they…read morehave the biggest range or because they are the cheapest - it is because of the staff. The shop is run by very knowledgeable people who have the time, patience but above all experience to help you choose the most suitable product. Most of what they sell is serious, high-end gear think Parador and Rohan. The boot fitting service is particularly good. The staff will take as long as it takes (30 minutes minimum) to make sure you get the best fitting and most suitable boot or shoe. The shop is in the suburbs and it can be difficult to park there but I for one wouldn't buy my boots from anywhere else.

Went to Foothills today, wanting to buy a pair of boots and some insoles. Could have spent a lot of…read moremoney with them, however 3 of the staff were busy reviewing next seasons clothing and when the shop assistant advising us about boots asked the "more senior staff" for help she was told they were busy! As they were standing next to us it equated to poor service. We had travelled 15 miles passing other retailers on the way. No we will not be going back. We then went to Cotswolds in Bakewell where we had excellent service and spent around £400.
