Sporting Goods near Hawthorne, NY

“April 9th 2024, I purchased a sneaker, fresh foam 840. Suzanne was my salesperson she was very professional will come again I drove all the way from Virginia because they don't have New Balance free-standing store, of course I had other business to take care of LOL. Like the new design of the store.Nice experience as always.”

“Earlier this season, I came in for a snowboard tune, prior to leaving for a trip to Colorado. I often tune my own equipment, but I had a bit of a scrape in my base, and it wouldn't easily hold wax, but wasn't deep enough for PTEX. For context, I could not have come at a worse time. It was mid-morning on a Saturday, right before there was predicted snow. Despite the shop absolutely being slammed with customers when I was there, and the fact that it is certainly (a little) more oriented towards skiers, I was happily surprised to not only be treated like a long time customer, but also have an experience that out performed every "board shop" that I've been to in my 30 plus years of snowboarding. Within literal seconds of walking through the door, I was politely pointed in the right direction, and an extremely professional younger gentleman was evaluating my board. He was very knowledgeable about my specific snowboard, as well as being able to gauge my level knowledge, and tailor his communication perfectly. A mild base grind was suggested, which was definitely the correct solution. Then I was asked where I was traveling, and we discussed cold temperature wax. At no point was I upsold in any way. The price was beyond reasonable, especially for being at such a beautiful, busy and high-end store. They stuck right to the price chart on their site, and may have even gone a little under on the base grind- regardless, it was about half of what I was expecting in Armonk. You can tell that they take immense pride in their customer care, and that is something that I place above everything else in ANY business. I cannot possibly recommend them enough, especially for tuning needs. I would imagine the service is potentially even better for skiers, if better is possible in this case! Seeing as I am bothering to write a review, I would like to address some of the (very few) negative reviews that I have seen, as I think they are largely from people who don't understand the business of winter sports. At least insofar as calling the shop "overpriced." They are not a gigantic, corporate only discount store, but I personally saw plenty of items that were marked down to extremely competitive prices. While I am personally not currently the most likely to buy my next snowboard there, that is based solely upon the understandably small, mid-season stock, that was present the two times I popped in. I would love to send my business their way in the future. I am simply at a point, where I hunt down highly specific boards, and no reasonable person can expect a local business to carry every board, just to please gear nerds like myself. The selection of snowboards that they did have, were all excellent choices for the almost all riders, and all from quality manufacturers, at perfectly reasonable prices. To my recollection, I saw nearly every commonly purchased Burton model, a nice selection from Jones, as well as a few other brands, that allude me at the moment. So, could you get some of this gear for less online? Obviously, but they are absolutely not trying to trick you. The price differences are minimal, at worst. If you can afford to pay JUST slightly more, to support this wonderful local business, I would posit that this will yield a drastically more positive and personalized experience, particularly for someone who might need some help selecting the right equipment for their evolving needs, and/or skill level. Lastly, I would definitely suggest looking into their seasonal rental program from everything I saw, heard from others, and have read online. What really makes me confident in my recommendation, is that they are not going to take advantage of your potential lack of experience or knowledge. It is categorically NOT their business model. This is a place that rightfully earns return business, by making customers feel welcome and valued. Winter sports can be daunting to dip your toes into, and the financial barriers to entry are not insubstantial, across the board. However, I would recommend simply walking in”

“Our family has gone to Sportech for many years!! We love getting our sneakers there, for all different sports activities! They have a wide selection and we trust their recommendations ALWAYS!! We appreciate the care and personal advice! The owner, Mel, is especially kind and knowledgeable!Highly recommend !!”

“Love this place! Local mom and pop store that’s been around for over 60 years! From the moment you walk in, the vibe is so nice and the shop has amazing high tech gear as well as fashionable winter clothing for men and women. The owners are always around and the employees are so nice and helpful. They take the time to measure and fit you correctly and recommend all that you need to have an amazing ski experience. Highly recommend going here!”

“Raymond was very thorough with getting me fitted for figure skates, he adjusted every detail until it was perfect! Staff was knowledgeable and experienced, they worked to fit my needs in terms of budget and skill level. I ended up getting Jackson brand which Raymond fully adjusted and made ready to skate coming out of the shop. Thank you!”

“Highly recommend this place for all things skating. Their staff is very knowledgeable and professional. They answered all our questions, and made great recommendations to fit the skill and strengths of our skater. They have a lot of inventory at competitive pricing, and are able to heat mold and sharpen skates. Truly, a one stop shop. They do all this with a very friendly, patient and accommodating manner.”

“I happened in here because the dress planned for an upcoming wedding didn't fit any more (must have shrunk ?). Robin asked some questions and immediately pulled five or six real contenders out of the racks. She gave honest advice, zipped and unzipped both me and a woman in the next dressing room, and applied ZERO sales pressure. I left with two choices and my partner liked them so much he advised me to keep both. What a terrific place! I'll be back. Thanks, Robin!”

“I brought an iron in to be re-shafted. Within 24 hours, and as promised, I had it back. John provided me with outstanding service. I highly recommend him and his company.”

“As an environmentalist looking for sustainable clothing that is organic and ethically made, Laur-Lee Sports company has gone above and beyond to assist me with our organizations order. Store Manager Eliana Henriquez answered all of our many questions, went above and beyond to find and explain the clothing we sought after and was simply a nice person to work with. I highly recommend this well run company with its many options to fit your needs. Thank you Ellie.”

“I always find what I'm looking for here, they have a kind and friendly service. and the store is always clean and organized I really recommend this place ? ? ♥️♥️♥️”

“So, Nich assisted me and my family. He had on his mask and he made sure we provided information and signed the waiver before we tried the bikes. He was very patient and extremely knowledgeable of Peloton as a whole. If you go to Peloton (Westchester), make sure you ask for Nich! He can answer any question you throw his way! We are going to love our bike!”

“Quite literally of my favorite shops in the world (no exaggeration). I find myself walking into Village every week after school to simply just to admire the beautiful collection of street wear clothing, retro soccer jerseys and gear on display. Dan, the owner, is a cool a** dude who genuinely cares about his unique product in the shop and all of his customers. Long live Village ??”

“Great dance shop with a good range of dance wear and accessories for boys and girls, and adults. Very attentive owners and good record keeping to keep track of sizing. Well run.”

“I received a quick response from Customer service and they offered me great deal on my next purchase. This is excellent resolve and made me a very happy customer! I went to their White Plains Galleria location, as they had better selection.”

“After good experiences in the past we returned yesterday to buy new tennis rackets and could not be happier. Rob shared his expertise in helping us select appropriate rackets and even tossed in the strings and stringing for free. The rackets are perfect for us and we appreciate having this great resource in the community! Beats online shopping every time.”

“This place is packed to the gills with some really cool clothing for a smaller locally owned store. Yes, prices are what they are but the stuff they sell is often high end. Yes, this isn't Target with mediocre clothing that might cater to a lower income clientele. Squires is where one might go to get some nice ski clothing or a special gift. We should support local stores so we don't all end up looking the same in that big box Costco style Poopwear. And frankly, the prices are right for what they sell. I have found that you can get stuff at a reasonable price. As for hovering salespeople, they are trying to be helpful and all you have to say is that you are browsing and you'll let them know if you need help. The store is big enough that you can ghost the salespeople if you prefer to be left to your own devices.”

“Stopped by yesterday to have an assessment. Nora couldn't be more helpful in finding the best sneaker for my foot-strike. She took the time to clearly discuss and pull a variety of sneakers that would suit me. Walked out with my new Ghost 15's in hand and a very happy camper. In the age of Amazon, customer service like this doesn't exist. Please support this wonderful small business!”

“The selection of Nike shoes they have here are endless. Staff here are super helpful and friendly.Special shout out to Erick for being so patient and helpful in making my shopping experience a breeze!”

“Was helped by a great staff. One person signed me into my try on room. Another ordered my items online for me. Another person helped me at the register. It was a very nice clean and great atmosphere. There is parking and stores right next door. Was very happy with the customer service.”

“Great store with selection and lots available in smaller size like I wear 5.5, 6 ...I found 2 pairs of sneakers I liked ... haven't been here for a few years, glad I stopped in !”

“This is by far my #1 lululemon store! All of the employees and management are so kind and helpful. I've never seen such exceptional customer service before.”

“It's a basic Dicks. There was a nice selection of items and I found what we needed. The prices are moderate but seem to have a good bang for your buck. The staff were there but no one asked if I needed help or anything. I would recommend but wouldn't right home about it.”

“I had a very good experience here yesterday. I told Yanitza what I was looking for and the requests from my feet so that they say "Oooh!" with relief. I tried on about 6 pr of sneakers (Nike, Adidas, Brooks) and was about to settle for a pr by Brooks when I remembered that I had read an article about the best sneakers for women with HIGH ARCHES. They had the recommended Brooks (tho not appealing to me because the color was bright red, black, green, white). I tried them on anyway to see how they felt. Suddenly I was sighing "Oooh!" Yanitza offered to look for other colors online. Unfortunately, they could only be ordered by women's footlocker (now called six:02). Yanitza wrote out the details for these Brooks Ghost 11 sneakers (sku #, style, etc) and I was able to order from the "sister" store. They haven't arrived yet. So looking forward to walking far in these Brooks!”

“i have never experienced better customer service like this. we came in they let us know our online order was cancelled but it was fine we went to the shoe section and roberto was amazing and personable. he helped us pick out new shoes and was cracking us up. stefanie the manager was also amazing and apologized for the inconvenience for the online order. we also drove about an hour for this but this trip was so worth it and would definitely come back to this location again.”
