A gentleman from the golf department had to get someone on the radio to come over and help me. He called for help not, not twice but three times before I had to ask to see a manager.

Stopped over twice as they had a good selection of winter items on clearance which was what I needed for the weather over the weekend. I scored some new colors in workout gear and racked up for my little one as this location had her size in a lot of apparel. I wish they had more track n field items such as spikes and warm ups since indoor meets run January - March and this location would make ALOT of money from the teams traveling and staying near by. Service was really good and everyone was helpful. The fitting rooms were super clean and the store was very chest and organized.

Finding that balance can be tough but thanks to the values instilled by Nike they persevere and ultimately Just Do It. I have got great deals from this store and look forward to many more.

Utilizing the app and other benefits one can find great discounts and would benefit from staying loyal to the Nike soil!

The last time I was there the clerk--who was as wide as his counter and as lazy as the day is long--hardly even mumbled a greeting. He actually acted like it was an effort to talk to a customer. I have news for these folks: You're not a hip-hop star. The ghetto thugsta routine won't win you many fans here. You're trying to provide customer service. You say more than "yo cuz" to a customer and answer their questions and also stop acting like everyone in the store is planning to steal something. No one will grab a soccer ball and run out the door with it. Just chill. Also, try to possibly smile? I mean, seriously?

I wasn't the only one here - a camper trailer, another Sprinter and a Class A were also here. It's way in the back of the shopping center so it was quiet despite being next to the Interstate. Hooray for Bass Pro and their support of RVers. While I didn't shop at the store today, it's this sort of thing that puts Bass Pro at the top of my list for camping gear or stuff I need for the RV. Two Gainesville PD were here chatting when I arrived. I have no idea if they patrol regularly. [Review 19894 overall - 1696 in Florida - 867 of 2023.]

Pretty lame for my needs compared to Finish Line. They don't get in as good a selection of new Nike…read morestuff, especially running and running-inspired shoes, and their website is very much substandard to Finish Lines. With Finish Line, you can put in your size on a certain item (say, a pair of Nike Shox) and the website will tell you if the two locations you've selected (e.g., Oaks Mall and Paddock Mall) have these shoes in your size. Champs has nothing like this and their whole website is a disorganized warran of rabbit holes that would make Alice in Wonderland confused out of her head. At least the people who work at the Champs at the Oaks Mall are overall very nice. They do carry G-Shock watches but have a low selection of these (Belk has a much better selection). Champs has just really gone down it seems since moving their location from where Cold Water Creek is now down to across from Sears. Foot Locker, which Champs owns, also downscaled and moved last year to another location in the mall. Could it be that Finish Line's superior selection has hurt these stores? I mean, seriously, if your bread and butter is athletic shoes aimed at mainly a casual customer instead of serious athletes, you need the newest and sickest styles in all the time. Beyond Finish Line and now Jimmy Jazz, we've got places like Covert in Orlando and Renown in Tampa so the competition is high.

I have visited twice so far while charging my Tesla after visiting Shands. I love how conveniently located it is, and I have been happy with my purchases. I respect and appreciate REI Gainesville's attention to safety including requiring people to wear face masks plus enforcing distancing and providing hand sanitizer. I think it's unfair that the negative reviews are people complaining about safety protocols. My experiences have been great. I was a little disappointed in the lack of selection in the cycling gear department, but overall there is excellent merchandise with very helpful sales associates. The quality of REI merchandise is high, and it is priced based on the quality. If you want cheap, I suggest going to a discount store where your gear will not last as long. My last visit I was especially impressed with the sales associate who checked me out. I don't shop much in person these days due to having leukemia, but the protocols were exceptional and I felt safe there. I will definitely return, and I highly recommend shopping at REI Gainesville!

Jameel and his crew do so much for the local community and also work to build the next generation of collectors.They also do a ton of sales online and group breaks as well, so you can break with them online, and then pick your cards up in the shop.
