I went there with his bag and was helped by Thomas, a junior at New Rochelle HS who also plays hockey for New Rochelle. His being a young hockey player was very helpful as he knew how to guide me (I did not play hockey growing up and had no clue). Thomas was very professional and very honest. He could have easily sold me the works knowing I had no clue (which was quite obvious) but he told us what we really needed to replace and what we did not. I actually wound up buying more than I had intended. Nothing I didn't want anyway, but there was no urgency. But I think I just felt good about the whole experience and so decided to buy the extra stuff now rather than later. It was refreshing working with a high-school student who isn't entitled or disinterested. He really wanted to help us and gave us outstanding customer service. The selection at Pure Hockey is excellent, the store is clean and there is off-street parking in the back. There are plenty of accessories as well. A really great experience overall, I will definitely be back.

Good gear is an investment, make sure you buy from someone who knows the game and takes the time to learn about the player. For us, it's instant replay.

Unbelievably great experience at Wesco…read more I'm a big, 6'2 beer league goalie with a size 15 shoe who always has a hard time finding gear, particularly skates. After speaking with Andrew who runs the pro shop (a smaller satellite Wesco store) at the Stamford Twin Rinks, he recommended I go see Nick at the main Wesco store in Brookfield. Having already spent an hour driving from the Bronx to Stamford, I was hesitant to drive another hour for gear - but I am glad I did. Andrew called Nick and informed him I was coming up, and when I arrived Nick was prepared and ready to get me fitted with a VERY gently used pair of Bauer skates that fit like a glove. I went in thinking I would try on some skates, find a pair and size I liked, and then shop around online, but when Nick said the price was $150, I couldn't leave without them (Mind you, the skates were last years model and used, but they were in perfect condition). I was in and out in about 30 minutes with a pair of skates that had been heat molded to my foot and sharpened on site to perfection. Can't thank Nick (and Andrew in Stamford!) enough for their dedication to providing the best gear and service around. I will not shop for goalie gear anywhere else again. Thank you Andrew, Nick, and Wesco!!!

Especially for goalie gear, this is one of the best stores as the goalie specialists are very knowledgeable about proper fitting and models, and are also fun to chat with. Although the prices for the gear are the same as all other hockey/goalie stores, they do have a very wide selection and also some used gear if you're looking to buy discounted equipment for a lot less and don't mind if it's been used a little.

She was fitted for a size 1 ice skate and I was hesitant because I had just sized up her sneakers to 2s. I was assured there was plenty of room and deferred to them on it. Of course a month later she was complaining about them being too small. We came back to Peck's and they exchanged them for 2s and only subtracted $20 from the refund for her having worn them for a month. They had some scuffs and the insoles showed her feet print but they were otherwise in pristine condition. It was a better deal than I hoped for and I sincerely appreciate the accommodation of her growing feet. It goes to show how important customer service is because we will for sure be customers for life now (she really loves skating so it seems like we will stick with it, ha see what I did there?). Thank you Peck's!

Over the years, I've purchased multiple pairs of custom ice hockey skates from Westside. Dave and his team are pros and will take the time with you to ensure you have properly fitted skates. For skates, their business model is less like a traditional drop-in pro shop and more of a custom experience, so be sure to make an appointment - you will receive gold-standard treatment. Another thing - my skates prematurely broke down after a year of usage due to a manufacturer defect, and Dave went out of his way to make it right by working with the manufacturer to replace it. Westside stands by the products it sells and will ensure satisfaction with your purchase. I will continue to purchase my next pair of skates here.

He is very knowledgeable and thorough when it comes to skate fitting. I really appreciated David's explanation of all the steps of getting the perfect fit for my boot. Between the heat molding, punching, and modifications he made to my skates, it really was so worth it. (Just be prepared to be in the shop for a good chunk of time!) Today I skated for the first time with the new boots and blades and the sharpening was absolutely perfect, I have never glided like I did today. David will definitely will be my new go-to for sharpening, 100% worth the trip! Thank you so much David!

It's with mixed emotions, and with very good reason: I currently use their pair of goalie pads,…read morewhich I only bought because they were 1/3 of what they used to be 5 years ago lol. Made very solid, with the industry's mid-line materials, which means it's quite heavy. So I wouldn't recommend for an older goalie lol, and besides the young'ins would probably buy the super light pads. But for a pad with no leg rolls, it's still pretty good, and decent protection along the sides; not the full wrap to protect those corner shots. And here's some nostalgic tid bit: they either bought or merged with Tackla, the hockey pant leader back in the 80s/90s, and I had thought they were out of business, as no current NHL'ers use them, or at least not that obvious. So now you know where to order them from.

Darien sport shop seems to have survived the online revolution with help from, you guessed it Santa…read moreClaus. Every year Santa comes and kids line up from across the country to sit on his lap and tell them what they want. In Darien, that could be a new Canada goose jacket (available at DSS) or a new pair of Nordic skis (available at DSS). Maybe even a new Range Rover (not available but DSS can order it). And for the adults who brave the intense December line to catch a glimpse of the big guy, they setup a makeshift bar (no charge of course) with Bloody Mary's, Mimosas, Beer, Wine, all the fixings. Back to Santa, did I mention this guy is the real deal? He claims that he runs a bird seed shop in the off season, lol. Yea Kringle, I ain't buying it.

Or they OVER buy on a trend from the 2000's....There's no variety. There's nothing that makes this place worth a visit. Most of the staff is just as uninspiring. They offer a halfhearted greeting when you walk in, but beyond that, they're completely disengaged--mostly standing around with their arms crossed, looking like they'd rather be anywhere else. Which makes sense because they barely make minimum wage, which is concerning considering how much the owner walks away with year after year. I probably wouldn't be inspired to help customers either. It's pretty obvious that the owner of this store couldn't care less about their employees--or their customers, for that matter. Unless you're looking for outdated clothes and indifferent service, I'd recommend shopping elsewhere. Go shop at the family owned business Richard's in Greenwich much better selection, happy employees and OWNERS!
