I was looking to purchase a new sleeping bag. Only one problem on Thursday evening when I stopped in and the store was practically empty of customers. I think I was 2nd customer. Know one offered to help . No one even acknowledged I was there. Which is poor customer service . Which means I purchase a high end sleeping bag from another retailer . If you expect to have loyal customers in an online retail market , which I don't support . I suggest the store show some common curtesy and ask can I help or direct you. You would have made a $$$ since bags that I'm interested in are{ - 5 to -25 F}range bags not cheap .

I really like this little store. Sure, we buy a bulk of our outdoors stuff at a bigger place but…read morethere is a different selection of certain sorts of items here that are always worth checking. I have found many things here, more unique in some way, a different and better color or size for me of something (very often athletic skirts) or a similar but better for me style of something (sunglasses) and other random stuff. They have a nice rewards program too so the prices are always competitive, even when bigger stores may be having a sales event. You earn dollar points and they always remind you when buying something that you have some and ask if you want to use them. I have earned some buying items online occasionally and did not even know I had them until offered at the checkout here. The staff is very relaxed and extremely helpful and friendly. There is a fun atmosphere you can see right at the door with their sidewalk placard that often has jokes or trivia. This is a small place but tightly packed with stock.

Wisely they moved the North Metro location to Boulder. I know many of the staff on a first name basis and they never steer me wrong. My husband is the avid camper, hiker , adventurer, but I have been lucky to find xc skis here for years, to have my bike serviced here and most recently have bought much footwear and casual outdoor seasonal wear. What I was looking for today was not yet in stick for summer but I will look again next week when the spring/summer sale starts. With a membership there are so many perks so the savings are huge, especially kf you use their partner credit card. Even leaving empty handed today, it was a fun experience . And when my husband needs a new tent, no matter how small in comparison to this display today, he will get it here and at a good price for exceptional quality.

My 4 year old was peddling around on a bike, and since he's still learning to stop - was not able. The bearded bros came a running "no no he can't do that". I was waiting for the mace. Being grandiose but not too far off. Their panic was hilariously overzealous. Take pride in your job but brother - Your assistant daytime front end merch manager status equals zero power. Y'all need to chill the eff out. You're an outdoor gear store. Supposed to be a part of and embrace your community. There's a reason why people are turning in their memberships left and right. You're one step away from being in that Walmart level of stores. Sad. Adios- Chad, Kyle and Aspen.

Kind of wild for a "luxury" pair of glasses. What's even more odd tho, is that when I brought them to this Roark location where I purchased them, they told me there's nothing they can do because they didn't manufacture those sunglasses. Uhh GET REAL with that logic...I'm POSITIVE that Roark doesn't manufacture ANY of their products...this was just another way to avoid taking liability/accountability for the sh** products they sell because factually they sell CRAP. My ex boyfriend's friend started Roark back in the day...I never met him but that's why I supported them all these years. NOT ANYMORE!
