“Best shoe-buying experience ever. Lady who was helping us asked many questions and even watched me walk to determine the best shoe for me. She was right; these are the most comfortable shoes I have purchased.”
“Went out with Will yesterday and had an incredible time. The fishing was awesome but more importantly will is a fantastic teacher and fun to be around. Highly recommend these guys.”

“Am staff member, fantastic selection. It is hard work designing and ordering to stock this store, but they do it well! Very creative!Staff in the store have always been friendly and helpful… they represent the University well. I love stopping in to see what’s new, even if I don’t buy anything. Pricey, as you might expect in a gift shop.”

1885 Seminole Trail #100, Charlottesville“I absolutely have to share a very positive review about this location in Charlottesville. We are from out of town and familiar with Play It Again Sports in our area. My son arrived on campus as a first year just one week ago and was planning to try out for the club Tennis team. He met on Friday with a couple of new first years to play doubles, and his racket frame broke. He was disappointed!
I contacted this location and the amazing staff and wonderful owner, Troy, offered to deliver a racket to him since we are not local and he does not have a car. I sent an email on Friday night and had a response from Troy within an hour. By Saturday morning at 1, the racket was in my son’s hand And he is now prepared for tomorrow. Troy, thank you!!! You went well above and beyond to help us with this situation and your efforts are so appreciated!! It’s been a big transition week for him, so this was a step in the right direction of trying to get involved and now you have helped him be able to participate tomorrow with his own racket. THANK YOU!!”

2171 Ivy Rd Suite 3, Charlottesville“This store is phenomenal. My experience here has consistently exceeded expectations. The staff doesn't just service equipment—they treat it with the kind of care and attention as if it were their own. I brought in a racket to be restrung, and was astounded by their thoroughness. Not only did they string it perfectly, but they also painted it, filled in the cracks, and put on a protective coating when I picked it up it shined better than the day I bought it.
Just an awesome team that is not only skilled but also incredibly welcoming and patient. This store and those like it are why you shop local. The personal service and the pride they take in what they do makes a difference. Will never go anywhere else.”
“Brought my granddaughter here for English tall riding boots. Emily was just fantastic in helping to find just the size in that fit perfectly. Friendly, patient and knowledgeable. An excellent experience.”

2015 Bond St, Charlottesville“I went to the branch at Bond street. Maybe I’m just old school but I much prefer the location at the corner... I got what I needed but feel the corner store has lots more to offer. Corner store gets five stars!”
“Great environment, very clean and organized! What makes this store GREAT is the staff, so welcoming and kind, always willing to help. Always excited to shop here?”

110 2nd St NE, Charlottesville“A small and knowledgeable dance store. My daughter has gotten two pairs of pointe shoes here this year and the employees are very knowledgeable in helping dancers select the correct shoes for them. I had my toddler with me at our last visit and had to step outside so he wouldn’t put his hands on everything. My daughter said the lady helping her made her feel safe and comfortable while I tended to her brother. They worked on picking out her new pair of pointe shoes and some others. When I came back in they were finished and I got info on where to order shoes they didn’t carry. Pricing is decent as dance shoes are expensive everywhere. Shop is small and cozy. They have an employee that is immunocompromised and they ask that everyone entering to wear a mask. They do provide one if you don’t have one on you.”

1117 Emmet St N, Charlottesville“While Athleta is still on the pricey side, they do run periodic clearance sales or final sales that make their apparel affordable. I went in today just to look around and was pleasantly surprised to see an extra 30% off clearance sign. A jacket that was originally listed for $178, I ended up getting for $55. It's also nice to see a line that has something for all body types and sizes. They have a girls' line too.”

1944 Rio Hill Center, Charlottesville“This was my second time here. I went a couple years ago and fell in love. So when I was back in town it was at the top of my list to stop at. This time it was pretty picked over though, and didn't have a lot of variety. Barely any pants or shoes my size.”
“My husband and I came here specifically for Hoka shoes. Both Richard and the other employee that worked in the Public Lands side (I didn't get his name) were very helpful and professional. We will definitely come back.”
“Found a great pair of sketchers on sale 59.98 kept shopping found the clearance rack found a pair of sketchers and a pair of boots to the same price as the fist pair. So I got two for one! Bonus day!!”
“My 82 year old friend just had the best experience. She was helped by the kind, attentive manager, Robert, at Dick’s on Wed morning. He spent a-lot of time explaining the return policy on some soccer cleats she had bought for her grandson. He took the time to get everything settled. She highly recommends the store and kudos to the Manager Robert.”
“I can't imagine a better bike buying and servicing experience than what I've had at Blue Wheel. The environment is super friendly, the mechanics are unmatched in Cville, and the customer service can't be beat. They've gone out of their way to help me find the right bikes me for and my family, and whenever I've had an issue they've diagnosed it and fixed it quickly and happily. I've never written a google review before - but these guys earned it. I wouldn't go anywhere else.”
