Gear too…read more On a cold December day the cozy window displays of Great Outdoor Provision Co. drew my friend and I inside. As the name implies, they have clothing and gear for those who like outdoor adventures like camping, hiking and kayaking. While I'm not very outdoorsy I do appreciate quality clothing and Great Outdoor Provision Co. has lots of it! The store was nicely organized and stocked and the creakiness of the hardwood floors was quite charming. Great Outdoor Provision Co. is local to Virginia and North Carolina and reminds me of REI, Duluth Trading and Mast General Store. Neither of us had ever shopped at Great Outdoor Provision Co. so we roamed much of the store. In the end we both left with lots of socks. They carry Smartwool, Darn Tough, Farm to Feet and probably some other brands. While I'm a fairly recent convert from Smartwool to Darn Tough I must say that I'm loving the Farm to Feet athletic socks! And for what it's worth, we both bough Farm to Feet socks after one of the employees volunteered some product information about the brand. And we've both ordered more since our inaugural trip to the store last weekend.

T-shirts, bumper stickers, hats, camouflage gear, heck, we even found a great product to keep or eyeglasses fog free. Vendors are helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. And ladies, there was a good selection of some fine silver jewelry. I guess they figure if a man is going to buy himself a big purchase, his lady at least deserves a beautiful pendant. I like that thinking, LOL. Don't think the environment is just a big Duck Dynasty party, there were people from all walks of life and backgrounds there to enjoy the experience. So don't prejudge, go and experience it for yourself sometime. Personally, I though it was great. Oh, and there's some pretty good beef jerky to be had as well. ;-)

He played quietly with them by taking the plastic packages off the hooks and putting them back on. He was attended by myself or my husband at all times. I'm giving this review two stars because the man who helped us with the backpacks was very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful. However, our visit took a turn for the worst when an assistant manager rushed over, saying my son wasn't allowed to play with those items. Keep in mind, there is nothing breakable about them nor was my son in anyone's way or making noise. I informed the man that I would pick them up, but he proceeded to reach over my son and put them all away in a huff, repeating that he wasn't allowed to touch them and would be in the way if someone wanted to buy them. My husband walked over with his chosen backpack and we decided not to purchase due to the assistant manager's rude and impatient attitude. I completely understand and support establishments that choose to not have children as customers, whether it is a restaurant, theater, or store. As far as I know, the North Face store doesn't have such a rule. Please educate your employees on their attitudes toward children if they are in fact allowed in your store. There is a time and a place to call a parent/child out on bad behavior, whether it is a child not being watched or running recklessly through the store, disturbing other customers. This was not one of those times.

If you are a runner they have a huge running shoe section in the back of the store and had quite a few good deals on clearance shoes. The gold area where you could test out clubs was built in entertainment for my toddler. It was neat watching people hit balls and figure out the right club to purchase. I was also impressed by the women's clothing selection. They had quite the selection the price point varied and for most pieces I'd probably hold off for a sale.
