    Got some new hiking shoes treating myself for my birthday
    Mercede E.

    I've been coming here for years. Plus I love supporting local small businesses. The customer service is great. They always have excellent recommendations for what you're looking for which makes picking out the right shoe that much more simple and fast. They also have a sale stand out front so if you can score a shoe in your size from the sale section you'll really get a good deal. I highly recommend checking this place out.

    Bonus points for being dog friendly (and non-discriminatory toward my sweet blockhead)!

    It seems that every time I get a gait analysis at Sports Basement the result is different so I stopped by this little store while walking my dog one day. They welcomed him in with open arms and gave me knowledgeable, helpful, no-pressure assistance. I'll definitely be coming back here next time I need shoes. I walk anywhere from 5-10 miles every single day so good shoes are very important and this little store delivers! I probably spent a bit more than I would have online or at a big box store with sales but it's totally worth it. The shoes they recommended could not be more perfect!

    Employee Caesar was super helpful in finding the right insole and shoes for my feet. Low pressure, high knowledge.

It was very cost effective and IMO it works incredibly well for families with growing children. We were going in a last minute trip and I was able to find everything I needed for a very reasonable renting price and just needed to spend a few minutes inside the store. Staff was super helpful guiding me through the process. This is my favorite Sports Basement location. Highly recommend!

    "Best Footwear Experience--Ask for Steve!"…read more I've been to countless running and shoe stores over the years, but my experience at the Campbell Sports Basement was on an entirely different level. If you are looking for new shoes, do yourself a favor and find Steve in the footwear department. His knowledge is genuinely unmatched. He didn't just point me to the newest or most expensive model; he took the time to understand the mechanics of my feet and explain the nuances of every shoe we discussed. He even had me running down the aisles in various pairs to ensure the fit and feel were perfect. It was easily the best customer service I've ever had, better than some shoe speciality shop! To top it off, I found out about their "Love Your Purchase" return policy. It's a total game-changer--knowing I can actually test these out and bring them back if they don't work for my feet gives me so much peace of mind. Between Steve's expertise and the store's return policy, I won't be going anywhere else for my gear.

Nevertheless, this particular REI has a really big location as well as a discount store in a smaller building, that's just about 20 feet away from their actual store. They always have a great selection of camping/hiking and outdoor equipment! I've bought some great hiking shoes here that were waterproof and currently just got a great jacket that is very lightweight and incredibly warm or at least keeps the wind off of me when I hike. Some things are little overpriced but within inflation everything seems to be expensive so whatever. That's why I always like checking there secondhand items first and then coming to the actual store. Great idea!

When it was my turn, the cashier helped me with my jacket exchange first. It was quick and seamless, and the order for the new size was placed within minutes. For the hemming, she explained the process and told me to go to the dressing room, and someone would help me there. The hemming process was easy. I tried on the pants and the fitting room person helped with pinning the pants to the length I wanted. After that she explained that I would get an email when my pants were ready for pickup. Come the day of pick up, I found a staff member and was able to try on my newly altered pants. It fits well, and you can't really tell that the pants have been altered! Parking was easy, since I went on a random weekday. I would return back to this Lululemon location to shop and get any future hemming done!

    From Parking Lot to Perfect Hem in 20 Minutes Flat…read more I recently bought linen pants from Lululemon and planned to take them to my seamstress -- until my husband and daughter reminded me that Lululemon hems for free. I was already near Santana Row and decided to give it a try, and wow... am I glad I did. The entire experience was fast, seamless, and genuinely impressive. The staff was friendly and welcoming as always, and Palyn in the fitting area was especially wonderful -- efficient, warm, and detail-oriented. She had me try on the pants, pinned them perfectly, entered my info, and I was out the door in minutes. I even received my confirmation email before leaving the store. From parking my car to walking back to it: under 20 minutes. Free alterations, zero hassle, excellent service -- this is convenience and customer care done right. I'll absolutely be shopping here even more (sorry, beloved seamstress ).

    I recently had a great experience at Nutrition Palace. Fritzey ( I hope I'm spelling that…read morecorrectly) was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain the different supplements in a way that was easy to understand, instead of just trying to make a sale. She answered all my questions and gave genuinely helpful information based on what I was looking for. What really stood out was how thorough she was going over options, ingredients, and how everything works together. She even gave me some samples to try for next time, which I really appreciated.

That's where Nutrition Palace comes in. It's owned by Hany Rambod and his wife Naz, so yeah, the bar is already high. But what makes it stand out isn't just the products--it's the people behind the counter who actually live the lifestyle. Most of the staff are trainers or coaches at other gyms, and it shows in how they talk to you--not like salespeople, but like teammates. Fritizie in particular has been a huge help. She walks me through my InBody scans, helps assess where I'm at, and guides me toward the right pre, intra, and post-workout supplements based on my goals. No fluff--just practical, knowledgeable support. She's been key in helping me troubleshoot my recent plateau. If you're past the "just grabbing protein powder" phase and actually trying to optimize your routine, this place meets you where you are. It's not just GNC--it's GNC with intention, experience, and a sense of real community.
