    This is a small hockey/skate store located almost across from MEC. I.had no idea it existed until I…read morehad a problem with my hiking boots and needed a gel insert for my ankle and this store came up on an internet search. The guy working here was super friendly and helpful, the products seem reasonably priced (what I wanted was actually cheaper than on Amazon, plus buying here supports a local business), and the location is convenient to bike/Skytrain/drive. Also noticed that skate sharpening is $6!

    Some of the best customer service I've received in years! Walked in looking to get my son…read moreoutfitted with lacrosse gear for the first time - had no idea what I was doing. The guy there ( I regret not getting his name!) got us all sorted out, showed us gear in a range of prices, explained options, showed us how to size the gear and honestly was so genuine. I never once thought that this guy is just trying to make a sale, he was committed to making sure we walked out happy - and we sure did! When ringing everything up he was even able to work up a bit of a discount for us - and gave my son a free ball. This store is about a 45 min drive from where we live and I will 100% be going back, totally worth the trip.

    Awesome store and awesome people, but *really* make sure you know what you're buying before you…read morehead to the till. I came in on a college budget hoping to pick up a used soccer ball or tennis racket to help emerge from winter hibernation and be outdoors, but the selection and prices made it so I got both! Consigners set the initial prices and get 50% back, so it's luck of the draw as to whether you'll get a good deal. Got a Dunlop racket ($33) that works like a charm, and the used tennis balls ($0.50/ea) are really worth it if you don't mind a Sharpie'd "T" on it. The soccer ball, I made the mistake of buying a lower-end Tektonik ($17) one. BIG mistake. After one use, it began cracking apart massively -- likely an issue of the ball being stale and/or overinflated. Although this is mostly the fault of a bad consigner, I was disappointed that I couldn't get anything back for it after I called and warned them about the other two they had on their shelf. Part of me is kicking myself that I didn't go for the nicer, likely better-maintained $22 Puma ball on the rack -- ended up dishing out another $25 for a new one at SoccerWest anyways. But I'm wondering whether I should sell my new ball to them when I myself have to head out of town, or whether I should go through the effort of selling it on Craigslist/Marketplace to give someone (and probably myself) peace of mind. TLDR: Know what items to buy used, and which are buyer-beware. Quality control can only go so far.

    We had a really great buying experience here. We found several pairs of shoes for my wife and son…read more The staff was able to help us find everything we needed quickly. The selection was a little sparse on children's shoes.
