Earlier this summer Dutchman bought a few of our camping equipment here. Great place to shop if…read moreyour looking for outdoor gear or other sports stuff. I definitely plan on returning back to check out their skating and running collection.

This appears to be a standard corporate type of sporting goods store. There are several walls of…read moreshoes, tons of clothes, specific sport oriented gear and all the accessories required. There always seem to be a lot of shoppers so it's a busy environment probably owing to the fact it's located on Kalverstraat, a main shopping street. This type of store always has some kind of sale going on to pull more people in to turn their merchandise seeing as we're switching from winter to summer. If you're looking for hiking boots, tennis shoes, running shoes, ski boots and all the clothes that go along with these sports you'll find them here.

They give you a great personal service. If you are a runner yourself they take time out for you and…read moregive you excellent service. It is more expensive than ordering on the web but you then do not get the service.

I love this place!…read more It's a huge sporting goods store and they have a bit of everything including but not limited to goods for: - Volleyball - Basketball - Baseball (not much) - Soccer - Rugby/Football - Trekking and hiking - Surfing - Diving - Swimming - Archery - Riding (horseback) - Camping - Skiing - Snowboarding - Racquetball/Squash - Tennis - Fitness - Cycling - Skating (inline/board/roller) - Ice skating And probably more! They have stuff to suit any budget, including the very low ones, while maintaining the quality of the goods! The prices are very decent if not cheap for their so called "Blauw Product" labelled stuff, which essentially means that it's super cheap, and they have a wide array of products. For example, I bought a super thin fleece long sleeve for but €7.45! The stitching is of great quality and it doesn't fit baggy like a mass produced one-size-fits-all piece of clothing. It's formfitting but not tight, at all. I implore you check this place out. You might see things that you need without the prior knowledge of your need for them! Check out the pics to get an idea. Beware if you're going by car as it's right next to the Amsterdam Arena so you'll have to pay for parking.

I am a fan of this sporting goods shop because I enjoy camping. Great spot to pick up all your…read morecamping gear. You can buy a lot of your sporting goods here. They cover everything from snowboards to running shoes to camping equipment. I told Dutchman it was time to upgrade on our camping experience. So we bought an awesome tent here.

Bever is to Holland what REI is to America. You can find all your outdoor sporting needs here, but…read moremostly European brands. It took me awhile to figure out what brands and items would work for my outdoor adventure needs. I was on a mission to buy a few things. For one, I desperately needed a backpack that could house more than just water. I already have a Camelback, but needed something bigger. I looked around a bit as they have quite a selection of backbacks. Finally, I decided on an Osprey that also had a lining that was compatible with a Camelback water reservoir. OK, that mission is now complete. Next, I needed a Swiss Army-like tool. They have many many different types of Swiss Army knives, and also a few Leatherman tools. In addition, they also carry Gerber tools. A friend told me about this brand and he liked the way it worked, so I decided to have a look at these. Unfortunately, the salesman knew nothing about Gerber tools, so I was sort of on my own in the decision-making here. I settled on the Gerber Crucial Multi-Tool, which has a wire cutter, pliers, beer opener (extremely important), flathead and Phillips screwdriver, and liner lock knife. It also have a belt clip, so easy to just hook on. I also like the green colour of the tool and it is very lightweight. Pretty good tool, but I wish it had some scissors. Overall, this store was great for all my outdoor needs. You can pretty much get anything here before heading into the jungles of Africa (just kidding). The only weird thing was when I went to pay and used my credit card, they asked to see my passport and also wrote down my passport info. A bit odd, I think Holland needs to get up to speed with the credit/debit system in general, but otherwise a great store.
