These boots were made for hiking and that's what I'm gonna do :)…read more Thank goodness I saw Gregory at a pop up/event and he actually had my shoe size in a color and style that suits me. I was able to try on the pair, walk around in them, and learn more about their group from him. I really put it to the test today. My new shoes took me over 8,000 steps! This high cut protected my ankles and the wide front made it very comfortable with hiking socks. I really appreciated the sturdy sole because my shoes had fantastic grip on the slopes. At the end of the hike, I was totally safe. No slipping or sliding :) The best part about my purchase, this group plants a tree for every shoe sold! Thanks everyone, I'm loving my new kicks!

The front of the store says CLIMB ALOHA. You are in the right place for Uloha. The entrance looks…read morelike a tiny store, but once you go in, it is a huge store with super tall ceilings. Climbing wall in back to try out climbing shoes. Like most small businesses on the island, they have very knowledgeable staff that help you with aloha. The best place for hiking shoes and climbing gear if you want to avoid the big brand stores at the mall. The gear is priced right and their exchange policy is very reasonable for a small business. You have 30 days and you can get something else. They cannot survive as a business if they allowed refunds because tourists would buy gear, go hike or climb with it during their visit, and returned it afterwards. That would be a rental business! That's not what this store is. Same neighborhood as Hi Climb gym too! So convenient. SHOP SMALL! SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES so they stay in business and the big companies don't have a monopoly limiting the customer's options.

Went there with my cousin, and I was introduced to Henry. He's super friendly, professional, and…read morejust an overall great guy. Awesome shop that does the safety course and the permitting for the CCW course. Along with servicing and maintenance, your firearm it's just an awesome one-stop shop kind of place. I was at the ranger earlier, and my sights were completely off, as I was told the person who installed them filed down the front sight too much, where there's not enough tension. There wasn't really anything Henry or any gunsmith could do to permanently fix it, but he did fix enough to get me through my CCW course. I would definitely go back to Prime Sports to purchase my next firearms and accessories. I highly recommend this place!!

Just like I said in July 13, 2025, West Marine is following the path of Sharper Image and Sears…read more Same path to bankruptcy like Radio Shack, good products and bad customer service. I wrote postive reviews for individual employees in the past which was well deserved and I feel sorry for them if West Marine folds. After the old hag refused to sell me the boat, I bought a 14 foot aluminum Jon boat for $200, a yamaha motor 6hp for $800, and all the whistles, batteries, life preservers, bilge pumps, flares, seat cushions, rope, fuel tanks, Gps, oars, and whatever else I needed from West Marine competitors. I would have bought everything that night at West Marine which amounted to another $1200 after purchasing the boat. Today I get a email from West Marine saying it is filing for CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY. Hmmm, I don't wonder why. I know why. The problem starts with the store manager, training and monitoring sales and customer service. The solution is relocate or get rid of the manager and the store employees that do not take their job seriously and provide customer service. Simple economics, sell the boat and accessories, and $2000 ends up in the register, employees get paid, and the company makes a profit and stays in business. Hire lame old idiots that rather talk story and bad mouth the company that employs them equals $0 in sales, store closures, and unemployment. Stores that file bankruptcy always closes in the end. COMMON SENSE!!!! I hope the outdoor power equipment dealer a few blocks down the road see this! His ghost town business will soon be gone too!

Patagonia. Heard the name. Seen people wear its t-shirts. Actually thought it was for the place in…read moreArgentina. Oh! It's a brand. And we have a store here in Hawaii too--located along Ward Ave between Waimanu and Kawaiahao Street with plenty of unshaded parking. The inside is very open, clean, cool, and comfortable. Everything was quite organized and each section was spacious. The first time I came here I couldn't really understand how most of the clothes aren't even for Hawaii weather..... or Hawaii pockets.... unless you travel to many places to do winter sports and activities. Funny enough, I received a gift card for Pantagonia shortly after my first visit. Now that I need to actually buy something. I focused on the casual, running/training, ocean activity areas. Needless to say, everything was quite expensive in my opinion. The quality is there and the clothes do feel similar to other brands. Is it worth THAT much though? My co-worker says this place is like the Lululemon for outdoors. Sounds about right. Overall, this store was really nice, cool, and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful. Everything really organized. It's quite niche. I guess if I need some ice climbing gear, I'll know where to go. Eventually I got a pair of shorts. Regular price is $135. Thankful for the gift card cause I'm not on THAT level...yet.

OGC has also partnered with High Roller Guns in Vegas and they have a website with a ton of different manufacturers to choose from. I couldn't find the brand I wanted locally so online I went. It couldn't be simpler. Look for what you are looking for, pay for it online and then have them send it to OGC. The day OGC got it in hand, I get a call from Brad. I go down, confirm the item and get the purchase receipt from him. Take the receipt to HPD, jump through their hoops, wait the 14 days, go back to HPD to get your permit to acquire and off you go back to OGC to pick it up. When I went back to OGC, Brad was there to assist me and was total professional and guided me through the necessary form for the transfer fee. Paid the fee, double checked the serial numbers, and I got my item in hand. Now back to HPD to register it. I just want to say that Brad was super friendly and professional and it's because of this, and the simplicity of going online to get what you want, that I will go back to OGC. They (High Roller Guns) also have ammo for sale and that gets shipped free without credit card fees. So if you check online weekly, you will find the caliber you want and so long as you can wait a week or two for it to come in, they have the best deals in town. The ammo gets shipped straight to OGC.

The store itself has a wide variety of almost every parts, accessories and airsoft guns you need. If they don't have it, they'll get it for you. The repair and custom shop is alos a plus! Pretty much one-stop-shop for all your airsoft needs. Staff is always great to talk to, not just about airsoft but all kinds of stuff. These guys know their stuff!

One piece is $7 and two pieces total $10! She also has 3 for $10 deals on t-shirts, golf shirts, and children's clothing! Take a look!

Aunty's Ukay Ukay is located in Marketplace at City Square and thanks to Nadine C she showed me that there's this place who had relocated from Chinatown and have found a new home here and you'd never know as it's primarily known to shop for groceries and other relatable items. You just need to walk all the way in the back by the restrooms (which I had no idea they had) and you can't miss her with racks of all types of clothings. A simple set up but the variety for both adults and kids from shirts to dresses I was quite impressed of the choices she has and the prices are just so hard to resist as what makes an outfit is how you present it and with values like this you'd be looking fabulous at a great price. Thank you!
