Large, traditional sporting goods chain offers value-priced athletic shoes, apparel and accessories, plus equipment for most team and individual sports.

In Short
Big 5 Sporting Goods has been around since 1955, and operates nearly 300 stores throughout the West. The well-stocked shelves of baseballs and mitts, fishing poles, sleeping bags, weight-lifting equipment and more are perfect for beginners or casual athletes. In addition to a huge wall full of brand name and look-alike athletic shoes, find racks of socks, jerseys, sports bras, aerobics accessories and more.
The managers in the store are horrendous
by mgdjmb at Citysearch
Nobody knows any of the equipment; I actually told one of the managers how disgusted I was at the service in the store, and he said they are trying to change it. I asked one manager in particular about an item, and he just shrugged his shoulders at me. If you can help not going to this store, don't go there. They are just AWFUL.
- Pros: Parking
- Cons: The people who work there, items in stock, knowledge of equipment is NIL
Generic, but
by DanFazio_Citysearch at Citysearch
I've found the two prior Big 5 locations I shopped at to be extremely generic, but this location had more legitimate, name-brand stuff. Got a good deal on a spring wetsuit here.
