This is one of my most favorite stores in Lubbock and one of the few keeping me sane around here…read more We might be far from the mountains but coming here makes me feel like they're close by. While I'm not huge on fly fishing and there's not much of it to be had close by, about a quarter of the store is dedicated to it. You can get rods, reels, line, flies, and a whole getup for the sport right here. Not to mention, if you bump into the owner he's happy to chat and provide some pointers. Another quarter of the store is dedicated to hiking and camping. There is a very limited selection of tents, sleeping bags and pads, general camping supplies, and quite a few backpacks. They supplied me with a couple items for my 2023 AT hike, but what they have is generally aimed at car campers. The remaining half of the store is all clothing and shoes from the most popular outdoor brands. Outdoor Research, North Face, Patagonia, Buff, Goodr, and so many others. I imagine they're making most of their money from people who mostly just want to look outdoorsy. Which is fine from my perspective. They are always well staffed with college students. Almost seems like there are always more employees than really necessary in here. Nevertheless, I usually end up popping in just to have a look around whenever I drive by. I honestly rarely buy anything mostly because I don't need anything. But the ambiance always makes me feel at home.

If an easy going day on the lake angling in the sun is more your speed, this is the place for you. That said, there is a decent selection of camping and hiking gear. Sea-to-Summit is the most noteworthy brand in this category. There is quite a lot of selection from general camping needs to specific high quality sleeping systems (sleeping bags and inflatable pads). Black Diamond headlamps and trekking poles. There are tents, but I can't remember the brands specifically offhand. Ultralight dry sacks and heavier duty dry sacks to pair with the boats. There are even Mountain House and Peak Refuel dried meals. Clothing galore, to include lots of casual short sleeve button downs, camo patterns, lightweight full cover fabrics for fishing under the hot sun, and a great array of winter jackets and pants. Some major brands are Fjällräven, Sitka, Outdoor Research, Mystery Ranch. A huge assortment of hats. Shoes and sandals are of course a given. This includes my personal favorite shoe brand Topo Athletic. My review is non-exhaustive, and this place is unexpectedly huge inside. A relatively recent addition is spirits and beer available to drink while you browse the selection (free of charge, I might add). Nothing like a little alcohol to lower the purchasing inhibitions! The store owner, Garrett, is a great guy and easy to talk to about anything regarding gear and the great outdoors. In particular, I used this store to help outfit me for my Appalachian Trail hike and his camping experience came in handy for bouncing ideas off of. Absolutely worth a visit!

I had never before been to an Academy, but my mom suggested them as a place to search for a new karate bag for my daughter. I found one right away. Under Armour. $50. It seemed/seems sturdier than her last bag and certainly larger to fit all her new gear. Meanwhile, I liked their Texas Tech gear. They sold a variety colors of Crocs - mainly just plain styles. Some cool Hey Dudes. Women's workout gear. Kid's and adult ear protection - not only for shooting ranges, but those body rumbling car/truck race events too. And that day they had 20% off these super cool looking Mom bags by bogg. Perfect for the basketball, football or softball moms that tote around everything else everyone appreciates. Quick-moving checkout lines. Nice service at the register. Place could be cleaner, but overall I was satisfied.
