Most outdoor gear manufacturers offer only unisex glove sizing anymore, making it very difficult to…read morereplace my lost men's XL fleece gloves. I am an old woman with crippled arthritic hands that don' t fit into unisex gloves. Only bandanas and adjustable baseball caps should be unisex! I spent many many hours calling stores and shopping on line. Finally, when I isited Mtn Gear near U Village, the owner pulled out a pair of lightweight Black Diamond gloves that fit my hands perfectly! I was delighted and will be back again.

This shop has a really cool take on outdoor gear!…read more So most everything in the shop you can BUY, DEMO, or RENT. The prices for the rent and demo items seemed totally reasonable, and if you like the item after you demo, they just put that towards your purchase. One thing I noticed as well is they are clearly carrying high-quality items and nothing less. Brands like: NEMO, Black Diamond, Jetboil, Helly Hansen, etc. Friendly and no pressure staff too!

The store is one of the largest I've been to, and they truly carry everything you might need for outdoor activities.

We stopped by recently and it's still cool to see such a big location. It has multiple levels and filled to the brim with gear for hiking, running, cycling, and camping. Outside of the store, there's a little trail they've set up for you to test out bikes; not sure if they let you do that with hiking boots, too. Since it's Seattle, you can find more than a few items that feature BigFoot on them. Service is always terrific and I like the fact that they have such a generous return policy in place if you're not satisfied with your purchase (for members on eligible items. it's within 1 year of purchase, even if gently used).

He made sure the suspension was calibrated for me down to the pound, wheeled the bike to the shop so that the smart features were working properly (it required expertise from the technicians), and even crawled into the cab of my truck to get it to fit, then had me lift the tailgate, such that he had to contort his body to crawl through the tiny window to get back out (he insisted)! You can't find service at a company where an employee will sacrifice their body to guarantee gear gets home safely, except at evo, apparently.

I had recently misplaced my trekking poles, so I was researching replacements and looked at SEVERAL models here. Sean, the employee helping me, was extremely patient and helpful, answering all my questions (and there were many!) and even helping me compare the small differences between models. He also let me use my ExpertVoice pro deal, and on top of that, the poles I chose were on sale so I got some great savings. OF COURSE, I found my original poles two days later but that's ok because now I have an excellent backup pair :) The store had a great mix of climbing gear, apparel, and outdoor essentials, and the staff was fantastic!

He helped me narrow down my options and know what to look for as I was doing my board shopping. And even though I couldn't find my size of choice I left feeling like I had a ton more wealth of knowledge. Every person in the store who's ever assisted me has always had impeccable customer service and always attempting to just help a friend out. Much appreciated! Oh and they're having some sweet Black Friday deals right now so I was bummed to not be able to purchase directly from them to support the business, but I'm just very short and it's hard in general to find my size.
