Went to the store for some walking boots. Quite a few were on display. Then, a shop assistant came over, very polite and very helpful, with no pressure. She explained what I should be looking for after asking a few questions. I tried on three pairs and made my purchase. Denise is an asset to the company. I went to check out, and again, a very polite, helpful assistant, Roxie, made my shopping experience most enjoyable.

Me and my partner are walking novices due to climb Ben Nevis! We were looked after by team member Celeste who gave us some brilliant advice and matched us up with the perfect walking boots. She was very knowledgeable, took time to listen to us and what we wanted first to then advise us on the right footwear. She was welcoming, smiley and professional which sadly isn’t very common in a lot of retail environments nowadays. Thanks for everything!

Backpack

I was looking for a backpack for site and city seeing use. I already have a substantial daypack for walking. I wanted something more manageable for the stated use. Max talked me through the various sizes that would be best for my use. I eventually purchased one of these which I am very happy with. Great service

Belle, great Customer Service and her recomendation of the Merrills Speed Strike 2 Hiking Shoes

I was looking for hiking boots at short notice to do a day hike that would involve scrambling, and probable wet weather.
Belle, one of the Go Outdoor Customer Service Team at Ipswich, helped me through the process. She was informative, gave good advice, choice of brands and gave me time. After trying on 3 pairs of walking shoes and leaving her recommendation till last, it was those I chose. The Merrills Speed Strike 2 hiking shoes (the most expensive pair out of the three). I wore them in at home for a few days and spent over 8 hours in them up and down an elevation of 3,800 ft approximately and completed my hike.
Result:- No blisters, just achy feet afterwards but hey they are definitely broken in now!
Thank you Belle for all your helpful advice.

For who(m) the Bell(e) tolls

The assistant I was served by, Belle was knowledgeable and very helpful. She approached me when she noticed I was looking around and was very friendly. She asked whether I needed a waterproof shoe and once I answered no she brought out the lighter mesh shoe. She checked my shoes fitted properly and brought two pairs to me. She took the time to make sure I was happy with everything and I made the purchase. Overall a very pleasant experience. A delightful member of staff.
