From a humble second floor office on Hastings Street, to the present location which occupies more than half a city block, MEC has long been a significant presence in the outdoor community on the west coast.

This is a true co-op, but membership is only $5. Lots of well-made, high-value house brand apparel and other stuff, plus name brand. Copious, friendly staff . Soon to close and move to Olympic Village .
Pretty great store, just take into consideration that you have to pay a $5 membership .
Customer service is awesome even if they're stoners. 5$one-time fee lifetime membership and unlimited service tune-ups. Tons of equipment. Don't park upstairs though. Gold stars for this place.
Da absolute best gear store you'll ever find!
Get last minute trinkets for camping trips . Lock your bike if you park it outside the store!
Great place to try on climbing shoes , they have a decently sized wall.
Best return policy. Biggest assortment of quality outdoor gear.
Buy online and pick up at the store cause they don’t always have your size in store
If you're a fan of REI, you will be very lost as everything is spread out strangely and not organized practically.
service on the floor is great. If you need to return something. Expect a long wait . Lots of cashiers but they neglect returns. Happened on several occasions.
The guy helping me in footware really knows his stuff. Awesome service even on a crazy Satirday afternoon.
First time purchasing equipment here? Fyi - There's a mandatory $5 lifetime coop membership fee.
Everything...
Do not bring money in here, it will be all gone when you leave. Lots of goodies here.
The big daddy of all the stores , good prices , good products , great warranty and people

Great view of the city from the parking lot on the roof.

MEC has become a joke. Bad customer service, products that fall apart minutes after you leave the store. Predatory bizz tactics, these guys are starting to be more Walmart than Co-Op
Open 10-9 Monday - Friday , 9-6 Saturday and 11-5 Sunday , parking on roof
Everything you need for your new bike .
Lots of hippies! :)
buy rain suit for you baby
MEC has bikes ! The MEC "Hold Steady" model features a lightweight 7005 aluminum frame, loaded & pretty to look at. Check it out.
Worst customer service ever! Unless you personally know some where here, which I don't.
