Good luck with that because all we found were small and medium. Have you not noticed the plethora of tall, athletic women in Williamson County? Note, Bombas socks are not with the socks near the shoe section because they find the need to have two sock sections. She also found an unusually low stock of leggings (compared to other Dick's) outside of the Calia brand that she doesn't prefer. Again, see comments about athletic females in this county. On the bright side, they're definitely keeping up with the Williamson County lacrosse craze and offer a tremendous variety of equipment in all popular sports for young people (except maybe ice hockey). So at least somebody there is paying attention to what they're selling.

Situated in the large shopping plaza on Mallory Lane anchored by Kroger, this Dick's is your…read morestandard location. I pop in on occasion and have shopped for clothes, shoes, grills and coolers. As with most Dick's, they have a solid selection of sportswear and you can usually get a solid deal on good quality athletic and athleisure wear. My only gripe with this location is the service, or lack thereof. On my last two trips in I was looking for something specific and needed assistance locating. Finding an associate that wasn't on the registers was nearly impossible, and when I did spot one, they seemed to scatter when they felt I was going to approach with a question. On both trips, I ultimately just looked, didn't find and left. And oddly on my way out, both cashiers who were not assisting other customers didn't even interact. The store is kept in good condition and is clean on each visit. Always stocked well and easy to navigate. Overall, not the best Dick's experiences.

My office is not too far from here, so when I am after something specific, in my most recent case, a weighted vest, I swing by this location. Of course, even though I am after something specific, I always browse their gym clothes and shoe wall. The store is well lit, well kept and clean. Service is standard. I am acknowledged on the floor and the cashiers are friendly and helpful when needed. Overall, while I did not find the type of vest I was after, I enjoy this location for what it is, and surely will be back when the need arises again!

You walk in are immediately greeted by helpful faces asking how they can help. Which is great as the store is so big and has so many options, it surely can feel a little overwhelming.

This location is just off Franklin Road and has a huge and convenient parking lot. Anytime I need a little help and don't have time to do the research myself, this is my #1 stop because I know they will steer me right.

We have been to this location a few times and didn't have an issues. We went yesterday and were…read moreinterested in buying a firearm. We were looking at the firearms in the case for a little while and were asked by one associate if we wanted to look at anything in the case and at that time we were not ready to see anything. There were 3 associates behind the counter at the time and another associate outside the counter talking to someone it seemed like he knew, we later found out this associate was a manager. When we were ready to look at a rifle from behind the counter we asked an associate that was working at the computer. At the time all the other associates had left from behind the counter and were talking with the manager and the person he seemed to know. The associate at the computer asked one of the associates now outside the counter to help us. The associate that was asked to help us clearly did not want to go back behind the counter to help us and verbal said so. He reluctantly went back behind the counter ,but after the way he acted and things he said about not wanting to help us (customers) I no longer wanted to deal with him. We decided not to look at a firearm and put down the other items we were going to purchase. We walked to the front and asked for a manager because we felt how the associate acted was very inappropriate and unprofessional. This is when we found out the associate standing outside the firearm counter was a manager. Mind you this manager stood there and saw how this associate acted and heard what he said. Said "manager" heard what we had to say and talked about some customer service award the store had previously received. It's great they had received this award ,but clearly based on the customer service we received that day we did not understand how the store received such an award. We were very disappointed and upset with the customer service we received on this visit. We will not be back and will be sharing with our friends and family about the customer service we experienced.

They managed to cram a massive amount of outdoor gear in a seemingly tiny parcel of real estate in an uppity retail plaza. Their selection of gear was surprisingly diverse, but I didn't get the sense most of the staff was knowledgeable in outdoor recreation through their own extracurricular activities, this was coupled with a hint of pretentiousness. Prices were a little steep on several items that I've compared to other retailers - and I'm not talking about big box stores, either. I'm talking other small businesses and outfitters. If you're in the area and are serious about quality gear, by all means, stop in and support small(er) businesses. But it's noted: There can be better deals to be found on the same items for sale.
