This place is huge--two floors of sporting goods wonderland with a giant fish tank arch on the first floor! There are tons of Texas and Dallas Cowboys-themed photo ops, a literal Ferris wheel inside the store, and a massive café with food options, beef jerky bar, and tons of fudge and candied nuts. Bonus points for the staff--everyone I came across was genuinely kind, helpful, and seemed genuinely happy to be there :)

I definitely look forward to coming back to Scheels and spending more time shopping around.

That wasn't really the problem. I did get my shoes but hard to try on another pair. Samuel at check out was the problem. He was rude and unapologetic. People came in from the wrong side while I was in line and the took them before me. When I asked where the line was he said it didn't matter and that they were there anyway before me so it didn't matter. So why have a path for a line if you're just gonna take whoever?
