Brilliant service at 11am on a Saturday

Brilliant service - knowledgeable staff who were efficient and knew their products. Answered my questions, processed my refund and exchanged as required and provided advise. Well stocked spacious store. Older guy (grey hair) was very personable and told me he used to visit local schools to talk about the D of E award scheme. Malcom asked me to post this review - well done Chelmsford!

Hiking shoes

Good outdoors equipment store. Popped in to try out walking / hiking shoes. I had a brand in mind having lucked out with others over size and fit. Helped by shop floor chap David and bought a pair that I’m sure will do the job. Competitive price + blue light card discount.
