Last week I needed some help with my second backpacking trip to Havasupai and met Alec in the store. I was so surprised that he went above and beyond for me and my questions and recommended several good options not only for the hike but for the car camping as well. Since the experience was so great, I texted my friends from out of the state and asked them to use REI at Paradise Valley for their purchases because of a great value and quality. Hence proved again and again, the REI is the best option for your outdoorsy needs. Thank you brother Alec!

So I was on the hunt for some new walking tennis shoes for outside that are zero mm heel to toe…read moredrop or neutral and have enough toe room for my toes to spread but I also have a very thin heel, so kinda difficult to find the perfect shoe. However, I'd been reading about the Altra Escalante and saw that this REÍ had them, along with some other brands. I'm so glad that I popped in here as the salesperson was super knowledgeable about what I wanted for my new walking shoe. He found several different brands that might work and I went about trying them on. I narrowed by search down to two when he suggested that I take a few laps around the store! That made all the difference in making my final choice! I did buy the Altra Escalante and they have been working out perfectly! They weren't cheap but they are definitely worth what I paid.

The first thing my daughter said when she entered the store was "wow, this is a nice Dick's!" I don't disagree! We found what we were looking for... a new net for our basketball hoop, and of course we found more than that too. We ended up purchasing not only the net but a new wiffle ball and bat, a new basketball, and some CLIF energy chew bloks. I'm sure I could have done a lot more damage, so this wasn't too bad! The staff were friendly and helpful and the store was organized. This DICK'S location is much easier to get in and out of with plenty of parking out front (vs. the mall location). We will be back.

I came here a few days ago looking for vertical ascend gear out of caves. I was greeted by Jason and he was really helpful and knowledgeable. I needed very specific gear, and Jason was very patient with me and showed me where I could find sit harnesses, chest harness, chest ascender, hand ascende, foot loops, etc. I didn't find exactly what I needed but got a good idea on the things I need to build a personalized vertical gear set for myself. And of course, while I was looking for cave gear, I wandered around looking at all the fabulous gear they have, I was like a kid in a candy store. I could spend hours in here. I started looking at hydration packs as I need to replace mine and found a very nice military edition and will come back to purchase this soon. I also saw plenty of Petzl bags, and very tempted to purchase another. They also carry so much Petzl gear, you will be in heaven here. Also, some great hiking shoes and some sleek, but we'll performing water shoes. I then wandered into kayaks and Jason even showed me the Padillac they have! I've gotten into paddleboarding and kayaking for the summer and now want one of each! This place rents them and sells them. I then went to check out some wetsuit gear, and they have a really nice selection of wetsuits, gloves, booties, etc. I really love this place and it is definitely gonna bankrupt me, but so worth it. High quality gear, more extensive selection than REI and the staff here know what they are talking about. If you need something specialized, this is the place for you. I'll be back here soon!

I love that they carry some of our favorite brands like Vuori, Patagonia, North Face, Hoka, New Balance and Birkenstock. They also have a limited selection of energy fuel (ie: gu, gummies, etc...) + sunscreen, lip balm and small sporting accessories. The prices are not cheap, however... unless you luck out and find your size and style on a sale rack. On a recent visit with my daughter, we purchased 3 pairs of shorts. One on sale and the others pretty expensive. Hopefully they will last a long time!

The staff came across as rude, unwelcoming, and unwilling to provide basic customer service.

Customer service plays a huge role in where people choose to spend their money, especially when buying firearms, and Scottsdale Tactical fell well short of that expectation.

There were two customers ahead of me. I looked at a few items in the store and was helped in about five minutes. I was measured for an insole. Staff heated the insole.

Once the insole was ready as well as my results, staff got me a pair of shoes. She placed the insoles inside and had me try them on. They felt so good. I was on a time crunch so I had to leave shortly after that. Staff sent me the foot evaluation results to my email. Interesting process and good to know the results. Shared parking lot.
