New walking shoes

I was 2/3 the way around my walk around Wales of 1047 miles. My walking shoes were starting to come apart and I needed to change them.
As i was a Go outdoors card holder the store was my first Port of call to look at new walking shoes.
I had spoken briefly to Ashton L the previous day before purchasing my new walking shoes.
I went back today and he was very helpful and patient with me and carried approx 9 boxes of shoes from the storeroom for me to try.
I was very happy with my purchase and Ashton L was very professional towards me.

Amazing customer service received

When I came into store on Saturday I was greeted with a lovely smile.
I was looking for items for my little girl. Abi’s knowledge was second to none. I did spend more than I wanted but was worth every penny for the customer service I received. Abi is a credit to your store and I will be letting my friends and family know to come into the store too.

I visited GO Outdoors Chester (Express)…

I visited GO Outdoors Chester (Express) on Sunday looking for a new pair of walking boots ahead of my upcoming trip to the Lake District, and I couldn’t have asked for better service.

Abi was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She took the time to understand what I needed, asked all the right questions about the type of walking I’d be doing, and helped me narrow down the options without ever making me feel rushed. Her knowledge of the different boots, fits, and features was excellent, and she made what could have been an overwhelming choice really easy.

Thanks to Abi’s patience and advice, I left with a pair of boots that fit perfectly and give me confidence they’ll be ideal for tackling the fells and trails in the Lakes. It’s rare these days to receive such friendly, genuine, and knowledgeable customer service.

A real credit to the store and a great example of how customer service should be. Thanks again, Abi – you’ve helped make sure my holiday gets off on the right foot! 🥾🏞️

Super service from Steve when buting shoes

My wife went into the Chester store on Friday to buy a pair of walking shoes. She has problems with a feet - bunions and arthritis - so wanted a wide, comfortable fit. The service was first class. She was given really sound advice and shown a variety of walking shoes. She is delighted with her choice.
The salesman - Steve - was patient and kind and incredibly helpful.

My husband was after some hiking trainers. Steve C served us. How nice to be served by someone who was helpful, not pushy but knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommended.
