A decent selection of outdoor clothing, a much smaller selection of ski boots and ski than I recall. They also resell LL Bean items. Footwear associates were quick to offer assistance. When checking out, be prepared to pay a premium to the local shopping experience and the tacky "who assisted you?" obviously for a commission credit is uncomfortable!

They have a great selection of outdoor clothes, packs, camping equipment, and shoes in lots of different styles and colors-- the Cotopaxi gear is especially eye-catching. Both times I've been in the staff has been incredibly helpful. A salesperson helped me pick out a great pair of Salomon hiking boots last year, and a pair of "On"running shoes most recently. The running shoes they carry are mostly for trail running, but an employee helped me find a pair of street running shoes that were just what I was looking for. Plus, they have a bunch of cool outdoor games for sale, like frisbees, cards and hacky sacks. Overall, I look forward to stopping in at AO whenever I need new gear!

Warning: Don't believe anything on the Sportsman's Warehouse website…read more Sorry to say I have to downgrade my rating to as low as you can go. I recently traveled to Sportsman's Warehouse in Altoona after learning from their website that they had the rod holder I wanted in the size I needed. The website was very clear that this size of this item was in stock, could be ordered online and picked up today ( see attached screenshots). I decided to just drive up and pick them up rather than ordering ahead. When I got to the store I was informed sorry we are out of them. In fact it wasn't just this size they were out of. They only had one of four available sizes in stock. This despite all sizes being listed in stock, available today for pickup in the store. I did get an apology from the salesperson, but that doesn't compensate me for wasting half a day and $20 in gas to get there and back. Don't believe anything you see on their website. They probably haven't got it. This is most disappointing as I really enjoyed shopping there in the past. Guess I'll have to go elsewhere in the future.

He was extremely helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. After cancelling my order and issuing a full refund, I went back on their site and ordered the same revolver again. This one came in poor condition as well. Shane, again, spent a ton of time with me, and ultimately I elected for a refund. Smith and Wesson gets a 0/5 stars. Sportsman's Altoona should get 10/5 for how helpful they were. Couldn't have been an easier process with a better staff. I would absolutely go through them again.

I think this was a tagalong shop for me while out with family. My niece needed something and we walked in here. I do have to say that it is quite vast in here to look for what you may need. The layout seems to flow very well and you will eventually find what you are looking for. I find it wild that the departments are so vast and cover such a huge footprint in the store. It is so odd that there are so many items to have such a huge golfing department. The customer service here is great. They knew what we were in here to look for and exactly where it would be located in the store. Even at checkout they were very accommodating.

So I want to share a story and I'm asking that you share and then NOT support this business !!!!…read more On Saturday February 3rd I took my 15 yr old son to an in instructional archery shoot at Freedom archery located in East Freedom PA. This was Scheduled from 2pm -3pm. On the archery range, there is 6 lanes and they are tight together, so they were spread out a to every other one so they we're squeezed together.... again they had the range from 2-3pm. At 2:25pm a group of 3 adults who brought their very expensive bows with them and came to the range and jumped in to shoot, it was believed that they were all going to shoot the video and were just taking a few practice shots. After they shot 2 rounds of arrows, they walked out and the kids resumed their shooting. 3 minutes later they walk back back in with new targets and go up and pull down my sons target without even asking him or anyone else...... they just took over the place. The owner who was putting hot dogs on the warmer was notified, as well as another individual in the group was mention and they both shrugged it off and being nothing. So now I'm boiling...... I Walked up to all 4 guys now at this point and told them how rude they were by coming in and taking down targets without asking and that it was a 15 yr olds target who was trying to learn as they once did..... everyone of them tried to push it off on the other and lied to me..... which farther pissed me off.... so I had raised my voice a little due to displeasure, and shook my head as I'm walking back down the range to the shooting area. The bigger man of the group was running his mouth to me a little, to which he had no argument as I clearly stated it was very Unsportsmanlike of each of them to do so. Well that didn't sit too well with him and he's jabbing at me. The Owner " Andy Zeth" then says to me " I didn't know anything about it, I didn't know...... yes you did but you turned a blind eye to it 3 minutes prior to......... why..... I figure that we were the new people there and the other people had spent a lot more money there than we did, so he didn't want to piss off those people who have purchased and continue to purchase expensive items from him. After I said what I did, they mentioned group would argue back with me and once wife got in my face, I again said that I didn't want to hear it and that it was very unsportsmanlike of them. Then I was told to leave because of me speaking up to the owners customers, as he is playing cover up now and yelling at me, because these group of men basically bullied my son and ignored both times they were made aware of the situation, and yet nothing was done, so as a father, I spoke up for my son...... and I will say that I was so mad, I even mention to taking the one outside after the display they showed..... we protect our children. So this is a case of the Good ole boys club Please share this Post and make it go viral ........ this is in no way fair...... no I didn't spend as much money as those gentlemen did in the past, who knows what the future would have held.....
