I came to the Dales on holiday and found I needed a new pair of walking boots.
My salomon trainers weren't supporting my (often painful) feet like they needed (I'm seeing an osteopath to sort that), so I popped in hoping that this shop could help (I'd read reviews and decided this was my first port-of-call).
I was greeted warmly (even at the end of the working day), and asked what I was looking for. I gave my 'needs' and concerns, and straight away I was given a first pair to try. Grisport (a new brand to me), and my feet felt held yet spacious. I was encouraged to walk around in them a lot, and they felt heavenly, even after an 8 mile walk earlier.
That was it, decision made. Was I sure I didn't want to try others? No, the gentlemen recommended them, they fitted and I was happy, and with the price too!!
I've since done a couple of other treks, and the boots feel great; my feet feel protected, dry and happy! No rubbing!!
Great service, great product, thank you so much Kendal Sports; you're a godsend!

How Sports shops used to be before Amazon ruined our towns. Shop here when ever you can to keep alive the memory of how things could be if we valued quality and people over convenience.

Called at Kendal Sports this afternoon to purchase a jacket.
What a fantastic shop. Extensive choice of top quality outdoor clothing and footwear.
Very friendly, knowledgeable owner who couldn't have been more helpful.
Can't recommend this shop enough, 5 star service.
This was our first visit but won't be our last.
Thankyou.

A great selection of equipment and good quality, and best of all, it's a shop you can still walk in to! Hopefully it outlasts Amazon
