I love the REI in Garden City. Every employee, literally everyone, is so kind and helpful. They are…read morewilling to go the extra mile and never seem "bothered". REI has great outdoor brands and a decent selection. Prices range and things can be on the higher-end but it's no more expensive than the manufactures sites. I also appreciate that as a member I get perks like cash back, extended returns, etc.

Still five stars. We came in looking for a number of things. Kind of a scouting mission. REI has…read moreplenty to offer for hiking, camping, biking, kayaking, and more. We are looking for, among other things, a smaller tent (ours is huge) that we can easily lug around with us and REI has a large selection. We signed up for their membership several years ago. Just tell them your phone number when making a purchase and you get credit for the purchase. We picked up a UV protective t-shirt as a gift for someone. It was reasonably priced imho, very soft and moisture wicking. Brilliant. I should probably get myself one too. BTW, the company no longer offers bags. None. So bring a reusable bag if you plan to shop here. It's just another way to reduce waste and be a good steward. Some of the prices can be high, but not everything. They sell Patagonia which is an expensive brand, as well as other, more moderately priced items. You just have to know what you want and what you are willing to pay. If you check out the bulletin board upstairs, they offer guided excursions that look really fun. I check out their selection of hiking poles as I am looking to buy some. Everything from really reasonable basic models to foldable, light weight pricey models. So you have options. They have pet items. Personal care items. Clothes and shoes are upstairs. So many types of water bottles. Camping items for both the thru-hiker and the car-camper. Check them out. They are a good resource and the staff are friendly and happy to assist.

Very cool store. A little of everything for the outdoors. Great brands and well selected options…read more Prices are comparable to bigger stores/online shopping so please support local business!

It appeared that they had everything one would…read moreneed to survive in the woods from clothing, camping equipment, food, tools, maps, sleeping bags, tents, hunting standings, etc, etc...you get the idea. The interior is amazing with countless mounted wildlife and nature scenes. There are bears, deer, moose, ducks, etc etc...again you get the idea. This is reason enough to go see the amazing wildlife they have in the building. The staff was friendly and available if we needed them. Prices were reasonable and they had a clearance section which is always a plus. There was plenty to choose from and it is easy to get to and easy parking as well. Go for a nice ride down to beautiful Hope Valley and visit URE, you will feel like you are hundreds of miles away in some small town in Northern New England.... We will be going back. As a scouting family, I am sure we will grab some great items to go camping with in the near future.

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!

This is more of an observation than a review but why is it eveytime you go to Dick's you'll see…read morelike 10 cars in the parking lot but 2,000 customers inside. The math really doesn't math with that scenario. Anyways, this location is very spacious and carries quite a bit of stock for every sport imaginable. The store is also very organized and if you start on the left side you'll travel through each sports section like it was a museum...a museum of sporting goods. This store is also jam packed with sales associates that actually are knowledgeable and approachable, at least one corporation still acknowledges the benefit of hiring human beings. The product prices vary but everything I buy from them usually lasts. So in conclusion I would recommend this specific Dick's location to other sports minded consumers.
