Great selection. Helpful staff. Clean. Everything you can think of for camping & outdoors you'll find it.

If you like walking out into the wilderness for any sort of outdoor activity, you're sure to find something that'll make your time even nicer/safer here! And if you sign up online for their email list, you automatically get 20% off both in-store and online. Like, I bought a midsize backpacking backpack and a proper pretty rainshell, and that got me $20 off my next order, so I drove to the store to pick up my order (doing that was faster than delivery and way cheaper than next-day) and picked up a new Petzl headlamp for $7! read more

Purchased a tent that did not come with poles. Their policy is that I have to pay for the return label to send back the tent. No solution was offered for selling me a faulty product and am now relying that this will be resolved under warranty. read more

My one stop shop for everything outdoors!!! I love hiking and taking walks and they have the best selection of shoes and outerwear! Such a fun store to look at all of the tents and gear. The best part is that the staff has so many years of experience and that's what sets them apart from all of the other stores. Come here you won't be disappointed!!!! read more

Campmor is my favorite store to by shoes, sneakers, socks and sandals. The staff is very friendly and helpful and their prices are competitive. The guy in the shoe department is extremely knowledgeable. read more

The staff is super knowledgeable and very helpful. I got 2 pairs of gloves and a jacket and what they helped me pick was perfect. I came back to get my mom a pair of gloves and they helped me decide and in picking the warmest combination of gloves I could get her. I went for the great inventory, and prices, but went back a few times for their staff are really super super helpful. I had written this in Google reviews, but noticed I hadn't added it here, and given I had a fantastic experience with Campmor again I had to add this. My most recent experience was great again even though I had a glove that failed under the stress of the winter, given the crazy amount of shoveling over this crazy weekend as well as some outdoor activity. This however, is no fault of the store anyhow, & instead to their credit they resolved the situation seamlessly. I ended getting the flagship glove from Gordini, and another cheaper one for when its not so cold so I dont have to put the expensive ones thru all the hard wear. Anyway, excellent gloves. I currently own 6 pairs of gloves, and some insulated jacket I bought this winter season from campmor, and these are all excellent. Fantastic store. read more

Bought a pullover in Medium. Fit well except sleeves came halfway down my hands and can't be rolled up because of elastic on the ends. I'm 5' 9 1/4" and have longish arms. Customer Service refused to consider item defective and I have to pay for the shipping to return it. read more

Is it just me, or does it feel like Campmor's heyday has long since passed ? I remember coming here as a youngster, and this playing be a MOB SCENE. Maybe that's because the 90s were a time when people still went camping? No idea.. The service was quick and courteous, and they had what I was looking for (solar powered lantern) ... but this may have been because I was the only customer in the store. The parking lot is big, but looks a bit shabby nowadays. Th entrance area could use a facelift. Next time I visit, I'll be sure to take a more thorough look around... because word on the street is this place still has everything! read more

Campmoor has been around since I was a kid. Got my first backpack here. Since then, I have done a lot of camping. Good prices and selection. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Lots of parking. Catalog sales too. Highly recommend. read more

I have used Campmor on a number of occasions. I have appreciated the value of the merchandise they sell and how quickly the products arrive. But buyers beware if you were buying shoes or boots. Unlike those, you might buy from a shoe store, if you use them any more then you would in trying them on in a retail setting, they will not accept any returns or exchanges. I bought a pair of Keen boots that I had tried on a local store. They seem to fit okay but my feet were in pain after one day. The boots did not get dirty or wet or scuffed. Nonetheless, the rep call them "used" and told me it was clearly stated in their warranty. Typical fine print. Be that as it may, you will get much better service and satisfaction buying directory from a brick and mortar store. Keep your dollars local! read more

This is a 'Rona review for the store only: I first came here back in the day... 1992/1993 era... and "back den" the place was awesome, and remained awesome for years and years... They used to produce a lot of their own product line... vests, jackets, all kinds of stuff... Regretfully over the years they have been muscled out by places like Rei, Dicks Sporting Goods, and Amazon... Now the store is completely gutted and trimmed down and scaled back big time... The place is a ghost town. A third of the store (which use to contain pitched tents, canoes, coolers and other large gear) is now closed off as an "employees only area"... Now they've got really nothing. The swiss army knives section - gone. Watches - gone. Climbing gear etc... gone. Shoes and boots, barely anything.. It's not worth the trip anymore. It's sad to see what happened to the store, very sad, and very disappointing and down-right depressing. read more

This used to be THE go to place for anything outdoors. On this visit there was very limited stock on just about everything. It almost seemed like they were having a going out of business sale. The prices are still outrageously high. The parking lot could use a repaving and striping. Very friendly staff. Curbside pick up available due to Covid. read more

Campmor - Curbside Pickup Available - Outdoor Gear Near Me - Paramus, New Jersey

I feel scammed! I really needed a homestead domey tent footprint asap. It was out of stock almost everywhere but listed as available on campmor. So i wanted to get it for $45 but with $50 it would be free shipping. So I added a $5.29 item I didn't want to get free shipping.  But, I got an email saying the footprint was unavailable and refunded. So, I definitely at least wanted a $5.29 refund. Plus, it was a big waste of time and is delaying our camping trip.  I contacted customer service requesting a refund. But all they replied with was their return policy, where you have to pay for your own return shipping! Basically, all I got out of campmor was wasted time, lost money, and an unpleasant customer service experience. read more

Campmor is a great place to find quality outdoor equipment at a fair price. I've been camping and backpacking for about 50 years (God I'm getting old) and enjoy the outdoors immensely. I live out west now, but I use to live in NJ and visited the store a few times. Great people and great equipment!! Understand it's not mountaineering grade, but most of us don't need that level of performance (or cost). Mostly i buy tents and winter clothing from Campmor. I have 4 Eureka tents and I'm please with all of them. Recently i got the el Capitan 4 outfitter and i'm looking forward to taking it to Pagosa Springs, Colorado this Feb. Campmor makes it easy to compare products. Do yourself a favor and buy quality and you'll have it a long time. Oh, their service is great too. I got my latest tent delivered in 4 days. read more

Campmor has excellent selections in quality camping, hiking, biking, many recreational sports from land and water. They can get what you need, from gear/equipment/ books/ maps to clothing/ footware and more. Their service is excellent all of the employees are first-hand experienced in multiple areas, there's a repair shop, hiking groups, field classes and networking. They are a wealth of knowledge, you always get the right help you need. I have been coming to their Paramus store since the early 1980s. I lived in New England for a few years, and made several trips during that time so I could get certain items from Campmor, as do my N.E. friends. I know I am well taken of from a business who treats me with the utmost respect for forty plus years and counting. Thank you. PK read more

This was my first and ONLY purchase from campmor. I purchased a pair of Wigwam Ragg socks from this company. I read everywhere on the net that a Wigwam men's medium will fit a woman size 8. I received them in good time, but the socks are way to large. I called to find out if they would wave the shipping cost because I'm a first time customer. THEY WOULD NOT. The gentleman I spoke with acted as if I was ignorant as far as the size of the socks. I told him I was looking for a Cotton Ragg sock, but settled on the wool since I was have a hard time locating cotton. He told me that he has Wigwam King Cotton sock. I replied "that's a white crew sock" and he agreed. If I wanted a white men's or women's crew sock I'd purchase some at Walmart. I want a Ragg sock. They're thick, they have a specific look and feel and last for years. NOW I'm out $8.90 cents for shipping and have nothing tangible to show for it. I cannot stand when companies don't work with you to make you happy and TRY keep you as a repeat customer. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY! Goodbye Campmor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

The staff was extremely helpful to check inventory and help me install my cargo box. They even stayed late and let me use tools so I didn't have to drive another hour the next day. Great experience! read more

This place is great we bought our luggage box and it's awesome. We did the extra install package, let me tell you it's so worth it! The guys were fast and super knowledgeable. I'm pretty sure I would have been frustrated doing it myself. Paul and Tahhir were on their A game! I will be coming back here for all my outdoor needs. read more

Very helpful and friendly! They really understand your needs and make solid effort to make sure you leave with what you genuinely need!

Looks abandoned -- even closed from the outside as you squirt past on Route 17 traveling North -- but this supplier of sports, camping and outdoor gear is decidedly open for business -- with plenty of stock to suit most anyone -- especially the budget conscious. This is not REI -- so don't expect hoity toity brands and pricing. That said -- they do stock some very well curated camping and outdoor gear, limited cycling paraphernalia and plenty of outdoor odds and ends -- at very fair prices. Lots of camping and biking stuff on sale now -- especially good on tents and sleeping bags -- also great pricing on cycling shoes and accoutrements -- as they are closing this department. Top Tip: For best bargains shop now -- as new stock is coming -- and with better weather -- expect the retail pricing on everything to increase accordingly. read more

A friend and I were looking for some camping/backpacking items. We started by going to Gander Mountain in Middletown NY. The parking lot was eerily empty. Gander Mountain is no more. We decided to try Campmor in Jersey about 50 miles from Middletown. We hadn't been there in years and used to get catalogs regularly. So we called first. They were open! It's still outdoor's persons store and none of the pretense, some outdoor store have. The staff are not sales people. They are people who can actually answer questions because the use the items they sell. The best part is that there are full size tents. Not little mockups on a shelf. More than one brand of many things you might need for a stay in the woods or on the water. The selection of backpacks is so varied that picking the right one is daunting. No problem, the staff can guide you to what is better for your needs and not the most expensive. It may be over an hour from upstate New York but it's worth the trip. The only problem is the state road it's on. The traffic pattern South is a little confusing and the drivers already on the road don't leave room for error. Luckily I learned to drive in NYC. read more

Take off a star if you are NOT a past fanboy/fangirl of this legendary outdoor store. I think it is still worth a visit if you are a true outdoor enthusiast. Campmor has always been a down to earth, fair-value priced outdoor store with knowledgeable enthusiastic staff. However, the inventory on display is now only about 1/3 to 1/4 the stock I remember in its heyday. It is still a worthy place to visit. Prices are always fair, and I continue to find the staff terrific to deal with. The stock on display is now slim pickin's, but I am only too glad to transfer money to this once great retail location. read more

As a gal who lived in Colorado for five years, I smirked at the thought of an outdoor/camping store in New Jersey that could compare to some of the megaliths out West. Then I met Campmor. Located off the most unscenic highway ever, this outpost located next to a EMS stands tall. They have everything and prices are solid. I was going in for some hiking boots and found a great pair. I quickly did a search on the trusty iphone to see if it was cheaper other places, it wasn't. I did this with a pair of Hunter boots as well and Campmor was the same price as the lowest price online and I can buy them in person after trying them on! What! Also noted is they are super well staffed. There are young guys everywhere ready to help ya out. I think on a Saturday I saw about 10-15 employees standing/running around making trying on and buying shoes a super easy process. Going through the various sections of the store I saw 40 different types tents, 20 kayaks, 30 sleeping bags, and so much more; it was awesome! Awesome until I wanted to buy everything and have the most pimp camp site ever, but I refrained since I currently go camping 0x a year. Instead, I look forward to planning a future camping trip knowing that my next visit to Campmor I'll need to buy some gear and I'll know I'll have the best! read more

Great outdoor store! My Dad and I have been shopping at Campmor for many years. We'd make special shopping trips to Campmor from Upstate NY to browse the selection and buy lots of camping equipment such as frame backpacks, tents, sleeping bags, stoves, cooking pots, pocket knives, compasses, flashlights, raingear, clothing, hiking boots, and other items. We also shop the mail order catalog too. Back in the 1990s, we were also responsible for buying the camping gear for my local Boy Scout troop and we shopped at Campmor first. I still wear my Campmor blue raincoats, which keep me very dry in heavy downpours. CLOSED on Sundays due to Blue laws. read more

This is my number one national resource for SERIOUS top quality out door activity ( clothing boots also) all season. My now 97-year-old Einstein Med School prof of Biochem father started shopping here in 1960 for ALL our years of camping hiking canoeing equipment needed in the Adirondacks, Cape Cod and Nova Scotia‼ Gggreat childhood memories ! In college we took a "drive away car" off the assembly line in Detroit then drove from Ann Arbor with our 70-pound back packs to Eugene, Oregon where we then hitchhiked to visit a cousin in San Francisco. A few days later we hitchhiked to Vancouver BC to catch a one- way ticket through MAJESTIC MAGNIFICENT life changing Jasper on the now long gone Canadian National Rail, getting off for the best camping of my life then getting back on ( part of the same ticket therefore free) aaalllll the way through Sasakatoon and Saskatchewan to just above Detroit. WHAT a life altering forever imbedded phenomenal trip ‼‼ My portable single burner Swedish stove, my incredible mummy bag filled with the best down, my hiking boots, my super comfortable hip supporting back pack and frame, windblock parka, canteen, portable super light two person tent etc etc all from Campmore ( don't forget the 100 % now very soft cotton liner for the sleeping bag). I STILL have most of these items and my 30-year-old daughter used them in 2003 to present in our Boundary Waters of Nirthern Minnesota ( been here 17 years from Westchester County via Virginia). My dad was a very serious mountain climber-- Cascades Tetons etc and was a member of the Harvard Mountaineering Club. He was SUPER OCD about quality . I followed his footsteps all these years to Campmore as well. read more

These guys are seriously good! I placed an order for a jacket at 4pm on Tuesday and I had it in my hands at 1pm on Wednesday! Unbelievably fast, and the item was just as described. With quick processing and shipping like this, I'll definitely be shopping with Campmor in the future. read more

Outstanding customer service. I was looking for a reasonably priced pair of ski pants for a last minute trip (I haven't skied in 15 years). I ordered a pair online but they were too snug for layers, so I called the store and the woman dug out 3 pairs for me to try after work. #1 was the instant winner. Also picked up liner gloves, sunglasses and a clip for my jacket to hold mittens. read more

Campmor - Blue ski pants purchased at Campmor, fabulous fit fantastic price! - Outdoor Gear Near Me - Paramus, New Jersey

nice large store that still has the Little Place Feeling: As in Low Prices F*** Yeah. read more

This is the absolute best place to go if you need any type of outdoor gear. I honestly try to avoid it since I spend a fortune every time I go here. All of the staff is amazing. They actually have hiked,camped backpacked, etc so they can provide honest answers to your questions. Plus they do not steer you automatically to the most expensive items. Quite recently I went with my son to purchase a new sleeping bag. His previous Northface bag had an issue with the zipper. When I explained this to the sales associate she instantly told me that Northface had a life time guarantee on their items and proceeded to provide me with all the info on how to return the bag. How nice is that? Sports Auhority would've tried to sell me a new expensive bag. read more

Place has been ever forever and it's always consistent. Good brands, great prices etc etc. Always go to the clearance rack first - found a new Marmot long down coat for 50% off because it had a small ink dot on it. (coat was black so it wasn't' noticeable) read more

Loved this store since i was a child. In 2020 their shelves were pretty empty and I thought they were closing their doors but im glad they're still around. Always glad to give them the business over an rei or amazon. read more

Came to clarify that Campmor is NOT closed as a previous reviewer has suggested. They are open and stocked. I went today (Saturday noon) with my partner to buy new backpacking packs and sleeping bags. Lots of staff members were there and they were all extremely helpful in helping us select the right packs for our trip and comfort. They spent a great deal of time with us packing the bags with sandbags so we could try them with the weight we intend to carry. They also gave us handy tips and recommended we keep our tags on the bags until we fully pack them to make sure they will work for our trip. As another reviewer has mentioned, they are honest employees who aren't there to sell you on the most expensive item or push an agenda. They clearly have a lot of knowledge and experience and go by what is the right fit and budget for you. I was shopping for my first backpacking trip and I'm so glad we went out of our way to go to a brick and mortar store with a fantastic reputation. The staff and their knowledge is what makes this a far superior experience to shopping online. What looks great in a product photo is a completely different beast when you get it on your back with 30 lbs. Does it dig into your shoulder? Is it the right size and length? True capacity? Furthermore, I checked prices online after I came back and Campmor had comparable prices and often better deals! For the similar price of shopping online, I cannot recommend going to Campmor enough for the staff's attention and expertise, shopping experience, and karma of supporting an independent store. Will definitely go back for my future outdoor trekking needs and supplies. read more

I hate coming here for one reason only, i don't think ive ever walked out of here spending less then 100 bucks. Maybe i should go more often to prove that wrong, but might not be able to afford it. This place is awesome, they have everything you need and at prices that are more then competitive prices. I bought a sleeping bag liner for 25% less then the cheapest online price, also got a ground cloth and pack cover for about 15 bucks less then other places. Also if you need something these people know what there talking about, they helped me buy a very good pair of hiking boots last year that i don't regret buying and helped me labor though trying on wide pairs until i found a pair that fit. (a 12.5EEEE shoe is not an easy find especially since most companies don't my half sizes over 12!) read more

Campmor gets 5 stars. Why because of the staff who sell you the right equipment at a fair price. Everyone who works here seems to know all of the products in the store but are experts in their department. They don't try to over sell you on products and name brands. The prices are reasonable especially in comparison to REI. If the store is out of stock it's not a problem, they will check the warehouse and send it to you. No shipping charge of course. We will be back. We will be back often. read more

If you need anything camping related this is the place to come. People seem to make pilgrimages here but since it was in my usual travel route I did not have to do that. The people that work here are passionate about what they do, they know the equipment, they don't try too hard to upsell, this really is a great store. I have not used the online store so this review is for the actual brick and mortar store only. Parking is only ok. read more

Outdoor , camping mega store. Took a buddy here to check out some laptop backpacks. They have a big selection of packs and a whole lotta stuff for the ourdoorsy type person. The sales assistance is great. The folks here are very knowledgeable about their products and can help you find that thingy you so desire to make your life better. People are nice, they kinda leave you alone and let you browse and are attentive if you need assistance read more

We have not been in this store for 4 years after having a bad experience. Things have not changed! My wife and I were in shoe department the older gentleman working 10/16 was completely rude and disrespectful to my wife. No one should be treated that way. We will never return!! If I could give this place no stars I would. read more

Campmor WAS one of the legendary names at one time, ranking (almost) with LL Bean. I don't know if it's the COVID, the internet, Amazon or whatever....but Campmor isn't what it was. As most ardent campers know, unless you physically damage a LL Bean product, they will replace it under their lifetime warranty. I recently returned a rain suit to Campmor. It is admittedly perhaps ten years old, but worn no more than three times. It is physically undamaged, labeled "100% Guaranteed Waterproof" and it leaks like Muslin (a very slight exaggeration). A couple of weeks after I sent the rain suit to Campmor, it was returned to me with a letter explaining that my claim is beyond their 90 day warranty. 'nuff said? Make your own decision. Campmor or a company that cares. read more

I have been a long time Campmor customer and it's always been my go to place to get gear. However, during the past year and a half I had given up on the store, the store shelves were empty and it seemed like it was ready to go out of business. I am now happy to say that Campmor is BACK!!!!!!! The store now has the old feel to it with great variety and is well stocked, even most of the sections that were closed off are now full of the usual gear. I am so happy that Campmor is it's old self, you can now even earn points for future discounts!!! read more

Before I lived in the area, I used to get catalogs from Campmor. It's a place I was always interested in visiting. Now, I live only about 30ish minutes away, so we decided to take a drive over to Paramus and check this place out. This place is pretty rad. It's not much to look at from the outside at first, a bit shabby. The inside is a warren. One direction is camping gear, another direction is clothing, and a third direction is cycling. We spent a lot of time just wandering around the store, checking out all the stuff. And there's a lot. They've got more stock than REI, EMS, and MEC (Canadian version of REI.) If there's a place that has a stock level that is similar, it's probably the Canadian chain SAIL. There are rows and rows of tents, shelves of books and maps, which is one of my favorite things to browse at camping stores. One of the really nice things with the maps is they had a place to browse the maps, mounted like posters, so it was easy to see what is on a particular map. The employees are really friendly and almost too aggressively helpful, and very knowledgeable. The prices, especially if they are having sales, rival Amazon. If I had anything to complain about, it is their cycling section. The shop looked fine, but the overall selection was only ok. I think that overall though, if you're a fan of camping gear, this is a place you need to stop at if you're in the area. read more
