Excellent customer service

I was served by Jude. Firstly he took the time to explain to me how to use my new walking poles and how to check that the height is correct on them, then he gave me detailed information on how to choose the correct rucksack for my next hike. He was also not pushing the most expensive one at me but just gave me the various pricing options. I found his advice excellent and non-pushy.

Won’t go anywhere else

Saved this review until I’d had chance to test my boots out properly.

John, absolute star. Listened to the routes I did, and was able to spend time recommend several pairs of boot that would be suitable, including the ups and downs of each set he brought me. I ended up buying a pair of Scarpa Rush Trk GTX, and they are ideal. Upgraded from Lowa Renegades, which in their own right are a premium boot, but what John recommended are absolutely perfect for what I do. Whilst doing a grade one exposed scramble in Eryri today I missplaced my foot and transferred my weight to it on wet slate at a downward angle with a 400ft drop downwards. Did I slip? Nope. Anchored and rock solid. Perfect boots, perfect recommendation. Cheers John!

Excellent staff member

Simon is an excellent member of staff at Shrewsbury Go Outdoors who helped me with finding the right walking shoes. He was attentive, polite, professional and very patient. I tried on several pairs of shoes and eventually found some to fit! Thank you Simon

Walking Boots

We went to the store looking for walking boots. We were assisted by John. John was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable. John recommended walking boots based on our intended environment travels, talking us through the different options. Even managed to find a match for my wife feet.

You can only buy bike of certain days

Went to the store to buy a bike; was told that the bike specialist was not in that day (Thursday) and that I would have to come back on Saturday. They couldn't even tell me if the bike I was looking at came in a medium size. There was a label on the bike saying small.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We are sorry to hear about your recent experience when visiting the store to purchase a bike.

We appreciate how frustrating it must have been to make the trip only to be told that a bike specialist was unavailable and that you would need to return on another day. We would also expect our colleagues to provide as much information as possible regarding stock availability and bike sizing, so I'm sorry that this was not your experience.

Your comments have been noted and have been shared with the store management team for review, as we recognise the importance of providing knowledgeable support and clear information to customers looking to make a purchase.

We do hope we’ll have the opportunity to restore your confidence in GO Outdoors and provide a much better experience in the future.

Kind regards

Inspiring

It is no underestimation to say that Simon gave the best customer service experience in over 40 years of shopping. He assisted, educated and entertained both myself and my young aspiring fisherman friend, Lukas. I cannot speak more highly of this man's professionalism and customer care. Truly an inspiring man. Thank you Simon , for the time you took and the expert advice you gave to young Lukas. I have no doubts, it will serve him well
