They have great sales, the people are knowledgeable (although the guys in the climbing section can be a bit arrogant) and the stock is good, high quality stuff. In other words, the opposite end of the spectrum to Blacks or Millets. Come here if you need to buy a waterproof jacket, walking boots or maps. There's a cafe upstairs too, which is very popular on wet days with walkers and climbers. It's ok, but nothing to write home about.

This branch of Mountain Warehouse at the East Midlands Retail Outlet is an impressive store…read more Primarily specialising in outdoor clothing, there is a vast range of fleeces, T-shirts, waterproofs and lightweight hiking trousers/shorts. They are all arranged on racks right up to the ceiling, your clothes of choice being selected with a large hook on a pole, reminded me of a fairground stall! The shop also sells a good range of walking shoes, rucksacks and tents too. All the items are of good quality and heavily discounted, which is a bonus.

The guys in the shop are not hard sell, but will somtimes ask if they can help you out. Everything is fairly pricey but then this is not a millets shop so they dont sell budget goods- its either mid range or the best only which is nice, just not on your wallet. upstairs they have the odd tent on show and some discounted clothing ( a larger section for womens clothes but still worth a look at male clothes ) What is especially useful about the shop is its links with the tent sales which happen at least twice in the summer where you can pick a real bargin on tents, i would say if your looking for a large or family tent to see when the tent sale is as you will save at least 20% off the retail price. Tent sales are located around stafford on school feilds were you can walk inside and check out the tents before you buy , its best to pop into the shop to see when the sales are and if your looking for somthing percific, have a look at there list and see quite how cheap it will be in the sale !

My ex worked here, and the staff were ace, really nice and up for a laugh, and very helpful. If they don't have something they'll recommend another shop where you could get it or offer to order it in. They do stock ordinance survey maps. Well worth a look if you are an outdoorsy type. It's not very cheap, but to be fair you pay for quality.

Very often specialist shops can have staff that think they are über cool for working there - not here, eager to help without being intrusive, and they chat to you about the product without trying to get you to buy - which is great - they provide the info and let you come to your own decision. This doesn't seem to be an exclusive to the Birmingham store - the Manchester one is similar. I'd thoroughly reccomend 10/10.
