Like one of those giant warehouse stores (Costco, Sam's Club...) but specializing in sports gear. It gets pretty busy with runners and cyclists, and the staff are nice and helpful.

Amy Matsuno

10% off for Google employees! Also, if you're renting bikes and you want a road bike , reserve them in advance online. They go quick! Another pro, free parking in their lot all day!

Carli Brunner

A local favorite for outdoor wear and rentals. Great prices! They have the best deals in the city on snowboard and boot rentals.

Jole P

Super awesome deals in all things athletic plus frequent sales! Also have a solid selection of bars , electrolyte and protein drinks

Heidi Smith

I always attempt to go in and just get "one thing" and walk out with tons of great stuff (like going into the supermarket for just a gallon of milk-not going to happen). Pedro and his crew are great

You can find cheaper shoes here and not necessarily athletic ones. Toms, uggs, converse. Also they have pretty good deals on other things! Big selection of energy bars too.
