Doug BaerAugust 31, 2013Like one of those giant warehouse stores (Costco, Sam's Club...) but specializing in sports gear. It gets pretty busy with runners and cyclists, and the staff are nice and helpful.
10% off for Google employees! Also, if you're renting bikes and you want a road bike, reserve them in advance online. They go quick! Another pro, free parking in their lot all day!
Carli BrunnerDecember 14, 2014A local favorite for outdoor wear and rentals. Great prices! They have the best deals in the city on snowboard and boot rentals.
Jole PMarch 5, 2015Super awesome deals in all things athletic plus frequent sales! Also have a solid selection of bars, electrolyte and protein drinks
Heidi SmithOctober 9, 2010I always attempt to go in and just get "one thing" and walk out with tons of great stuff (like going into the supermarket for just a gallon of milk-not going to happen). Pedro and his crew are great
_ _August 3, 2011You can find cheaper shoes here and not necessarily athletic ones. Toms, uggs, converse. Also they have pretty good deals on other things! Big selection of energy bars too.
BravoNovember 12, 2010For any avid biker or newbies, this is home. They are very helpful and won't judge for walking around in biking shorts. -Yigit Pura, Top Chef Just Desserts
C. Eloise LimAugust 7, 2014Great selection of sporting goods & a LOT more at lower prices. Anytime return policy. Service is good.

Kelly 🍰May 14, 2012Bikes in back, even has an entire tennis and LACROSSE section. Sports Bathrooms in the front where you walk in!
Discount for most local high school students. Camping to sports. Shoes shoes shoes.
- _ _April 22, 2013If you have AAA, you get a discount!! (10%). Just mention it when you are at the cashier!
- Love SB...Ask for the Cal Bears discount for 10% off. No need to show ID!
They often have 20% off fundraiser parties on weekday evenings from 6 to 8pm. Just find out the group name from another attendee to get the discount.
10% discount for showing local gym membership, AAA or potentially just being cool!
Diana F-wOctober 16, 2011Best place to buy gear at great prices! Also they're one of the best sponsors of AIDS/Lifecycle.
John WAugust 1, 2017Staff not very helpful. I was shopping for bicycle shorts that didn't have padded liners. Staff member pointed in the direction of racks with shorts, and said they were over there.
David GlickmanDecember 10, 2011Cool offer from Tom's Shoes. Buy shoes today (until 3) and they will custom paint them.
John ArroyoSeptember 10, 2013Pick up one of these rad shirts designed by Justin Schwartz who works in the bike department!
Walsy LamOctober 22, 2010They're great at telling you which shoes would work best for your feet. New runners, get fitted! Shoes make a huge difference.
