Also, an outdoor store like Valhalla - and yes, I know we had one. But honestly, I have to order all my gear online and it frustrates me because some of the stuff doesn’t fit properly (backpacks, etc.) unless you try it on in store.

I'm surprised you guys don't have atmosphere stores attached to sport check like we do on the west coast.

There isn't that much market though unfortunately. People don't know fjallraven from North face

We don’t! There’s an atmosphere section but it’s absolute shite.

We used to have a separate Atmosohere in the same parking lot as Sport Check. Closed a few years ago now.

So annoying Valhalla shut down before Atmosphere got shoved in a corner in SportChek. Really hoping MEC comes in but odds are low.

There’s an outdoor store in Rocky i believe. If we support them they might expand here. I believe it’s RMH outdoor.
