One thing that was a bit strange is the fact that part of our group was able to get the student discount as students in another country, whilst we were denied such discounts (as students in the same country). Also, on the poster it just said you have to be a student between several ages, which we were part of. So it seemed a bit strange that we were denied this discount.

I am giving this rating and review purely because I had great customer service by 3 people in the…read morestore today. The young guy at the shoes was a little lackluster, but he did have dome knowledge of his products. So did the young guy at the backpacks and the girl at the cash register. AS Adventure as a whole firm is a little on the pricy side, but when you feel you've had good service like this then it doesn't hurt the wallet as badly. *Note, the store has moved to a new address at the corner of the old Veldstraat address.

Whenever I need some gear for camping, climbing or other outdoor activities, I'll go to Lecomte…read more Actually, even when I don't need anything but in the Flagey area, I'll pop in just to browse the isles and dream about future activities... I like the fact it isn't part of a huge retail chain, but they still seem to be able to keep their prices a little below the rest. The staff consists of avid climbers and hikers, so they really know a thing or two about what they're selling, and so far I haven't caught them telling any nonsense about the products, contrary to some other stores... However, I would love for them to sell some more bicycle touring stuff -- but I suppose there are specialised shops for that -- and some brands I would expect -- Hilleberg tents comes to mind -- seem to be missing. Of the brands they do sell though, they're happy to order anything they're not currently stocking, even if it is not outdoorsy at all!

Great store for everything sports related. I purchased a pair of skiing gloves as I forgot mine at…read morehome in Las Vegas. The cheapest pair that wasn't in the child section was $25 and went up to $80. They had a lot of skiing gear which was great but I'm used to US prices and djee it's expensive! I'm not paying $250 for a jacket! But fun store only little more pricy.

I had an issue with an item which I bought a year ago (thus still under guarantee).

I needed to leave for long holidays very soon, and the deadline to repair the product (set by the manufacturer) was too long. In a minute the manager offered a replacement option, which allowed me to leave for my holidays with the trousers in question. Perfect after-sale service !

Les produits sont de très bonne qualité, ils sont donc un peu chers, mais ça peut être l'occasion d'un cadeau... un bon sac de globe-trotter aux 18 ans de votre fils par exemple (sous-entendu, envole toi ou bon débarras, selon!)

All flavors are represented. All major shoe brands are represented, and being specialists they also carry the niche products of each of the brands. I was there becaus my wife was acquiring a new pair of running shoes, and I have to say that I was very impressed by the salesperson. He definetly knew his stuff, and was not overselling anything, just an honest sales pitch. I really warmly recommend the spot for any fanatical runner in BXL.

Lots of choices, very competent staff & where excellent deals can be had during sale periods…read more(January / July).
