Terrible Rip Off Company...AVOID! – Terrible company that will not allow defective products to be returned, or get a refund. Do not do business with this scam company. They will rip you off, and there is little you can do about. Support honest merchants by shopping with real companies.
Love it! – I can say that this store is such a great local shop with some amazing sale prices. They are full of arcteryx inventory (unlike REI who sells most "online only") They have a reasonable return policy and will exchange something if it is just not a great fit! The employees remembered me and gave excellent service... and trust me... I am no professional climber/hiker/skiier. Another perk is that anything that is on their website is in store. That is so unique! Any day I would rather support a local business. I would ... read more
nice store – Nice store with limited inventory. Reminds me of stores back in the 60's. The guy who was a climber and opens his own store on a limited budget. The guy who helped me was ok, but since I wasnt a "pro" like him, seamed to want to move on to the next customer..oh well.
Horrible Service – Dumped $1,600 before a cruise 10 weeks ago. Also, ordered in 6 additional items (gave sizes, colors, etc, two phone numbers, email, etc) and NO call back at all. ALSO, contacted two companies in town per a call to Pezyl to see which company could give the best price on $1900+ in caving equipment. This company was $240 over the other major competitor in town. Emailed the E-person and was told to just go to the other company without any conversation. Despite this, I told him via email to order in the $1,900 ... read more
Don't try to return anything.......used or not – Does not honor return policy. Tried to return new shoes, they said they were used. Be warned. Takes forever to ship too.
The only gear shop in Portland you (should) need. – Hands down OMC is the best place to go in Portland for all of your gear. Not only do they have the best selection and prices, but their staff knows what they're talking about. Other shops in the area either have a limited selection (Mountain Shop), old/sketchy used gear (Next Adventure), or think they're too cool for their customers (US Outdoor Store). What I like the best: they don't cater to the snowboard crowd, just the backcountry folk. There are only a few downsides. F... read more
Whether customers enjoy roughing it or prefer a more comfortable outdoor experience, OMC has the gear to fit every style. – In Short This store has everything necessary for outdoor adventures: Skis, snowshoes, climbing and backpacking gear, and permits are all for sale. An array of rentals--snowshoes, cross-country skis, touring skis, ice axes and avalanche transceivers--are also available. There's also a repair shop on the premises. The store occasionally hosts outdoors experts for slide shows and lectures. And frequent sal... read more
User review by obfuscator – I've been into OMC a few times since they moved out to Sandy Blvd. Their retail space is definately better than it was downtown. Things are a bit messey there though, they look a bit unkept. The staff seemed to be doing other things the last time I was there, even though there weren't many customers in the store. It took a little while for someone to come check on me, and the person who did was none other than the owner (a real nice guy); after that a few others came to see if I needed anything. T... read more
New location is more convenient! – As a long time shopper with OMC, I was concerned about them moving to the east side of the river. But my concerns were unfounded! The new building location is more convenient and I am glad to not have to pay for parking. The staff seems to have gone through a few changes, but they still have a lot of core outdoor enthusiasts on staff. Especially in the ski department. Simply the best selection in Portland for backcountry gear, IMHO. If you haven't been to the "new" OMC, you should check it ... read more
