I'm a 53 year old dude disparately attempting to stay cool and I love my Vans slip ons. Ordered a pair on sale online with Amateur Athlete today and within 5 minutes Colin ( who I don't know but is awesome) texted me that they didn't actually have the pair I ordered. Offered me a refund or a look at other pairs like them in my size. I opted to look at others and damn if he didn't show me a pair that were cooler than the ones I ordered. I choose them , duh! The pics he txted me and this entire dialog happened within 15 minutes of my online order. Crazy! If 20% of the businesses in the US were as attentive and customer friendly as these folks the world would be such a better place! I will make excuses to buy from y'all again.

Great service! I ordered a deck online and was shocked to have it in hand in less than 24 hours. Better slow down the service, guys -- I hardly had enough time to think up an excuse so that I could explain to my wife why I needed yet another skate deck!

Best skate shop in the ABE area. No wonder they've remained opened for over 40 years. Very informative and helpful for parents and kids wanting to get into the sport. They also always have phenomenal sales going on!

Has been my go to skate shop for over 30 years and counting. Went here as a kid and now take mine. Joe and Colin are always welcoming and are truly some of the best people. If you're a core skaterboarder, just getting into it, or buying for someone else, they are there to help and will answer any questions you have. Support local, and keep places like this alive. Check out their YouTube channel for new merch drop updates and product reviews.

My personal experience going to amateur athlete for the first time was phenomenal. The owner of the store is good friends with my neighbor and they have lived in the community for over 20+ years. So when I told the owner that I was the neighbor of one of his good friends, I felt more welcome in the store than I ever have in any skate shop.

I’ve been coming to this store for years, since they had skate jams in the parking lot, it’s one of the last independent skate shops around. The owner is a great guy and the merchandise is exactly what you’d expect from a skate shop and they have their own decks/clothing as well. Great prices and a great selection. The new location looks awesome inside as well. Glad to see they found another location instead of closing up. Will be back, as always!

Photo of my son and Colin from Amateur Athlete. This family-run skate shop has been my go to place since I was 14 in 1984! They were just forced out of their original space of over 30 years by a shady Starbucks takeover. They are up and running in a new location. Please check out their shop in person or online. Support these Mom and Pop places that are the backbone of America!

I love these guys! I live in California but they've made it feel like this is my local skateshop with the personal and excellent service they provide! Always rad products and their AA clothing line right now is so comfortable, and the quality is top notch! I currently have the black camo sweatpants, the red and the camo shop shorts which I wear everywhere, literally I wear them out & about, at the gym and for bed lol wish I lived near the shop, but the website is super cool and a really rad follow on Insta! Keep it up guys, and thank you for what you do:) Oh and shipping is fast and the decks are wrapped like precious pieces of art!!!
