Great service and advice. My wife was looking for a new pair of trekking shoes and Zak was extremely helpful and patient, going through multiple options and providing lots of advice. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

A huge thank you to Tanya at Blacks, Newbury for all your help with the expedition gear for my son Jack and me.
Tanya took the time to go through our equipment list with us in advance and then spent a couple of hours with both Jack and me on separate occasions, making sure we had the right kit and giving us plenty of helpful advice.
The time, patience and personal attention were very much appreciated. Excellent service from someone who clearly knows her stuff.
Many thanks again, Tanya. We really appreciate all your help and look forward to speaking with you again soon.

I don’t normally leave reviews, but I think it’s important to recognise people when they genuinely deserve it, and Jack certainly does.

We came into the shop knowing exactly which walking boots my partner wanted, but we had no idea on sizing. As a result, she ended up trying on multiple sizes of the same boot, which could have easily been frustrating for the person serving us. Jack couldn’t have been more patient. He was friendly, easy to talk to, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and completely stress-free.

We ended up chatting about his walk across Dartmoor and where we were heading on holiday in North Wales. It never felt like he was just trying to make a sale – it felt like a genuine conversation, which made the whole experience that much better.

While we were there, another customer interrupted our conversation very abruptly and rather rudely demanded to try on some shoes. Jack handled the situation calmly and professionally, then carried on serving us with a smile on his face. Having worked in the service industry myself, I know how difficult some customers can be, so I really appreciated how well he dealt with it.

People are often quick to complain but not always quick to praise. Jack is exactly the kind of person who deserves recognition. He made what could have been a simple shopping trip into a genuinely enjoyable experience just by being kind, patient and treating people with respect.

Thanks again, Jack - keep being yourself.

Ease of buying on-line. Staock is in ayt my locl store, Collection was simple and quick.
And of course, the shorts fitted, the price was good as was the quality.

Ordering and collecting all straightforward, communication good. Packaging was damaged which was disappointing as it was bought as a gift.

Very positive experience. Many thanks to Zak for all his advice and patience with helping me get walking boots.

Friendly, helpful advice.

Having misshaped feet and difficulty in bending I was delighted by the level of service, stock knowledge and understanding that I received in Black's in Newbury from the assistant Ann. With humour and patience she was able to fit me up with not one but two pairs of walking shoes/boots and advise me about their wear. This was in stark contrast to their competitors ‘up the road’, Mountain Warehouse and Sports Direct who operate a self-service approach and appeared disinterested in selling me anything at all!

Jack was brilliant at helping me choose the right walking boots …he was patient and extremely helpful and knowledgeable and gave great advice. I have been for a walk in my new boots and they are super comfy!

Came in to find boots for my son's DofE, we were helped by Will, he was fantastic, very helpful and kind, all the staff were wonderful. We will be back :)

I was bit lost for a start, member of staff- Zak offerd as help. He direct us to the right sections and help choose the right equipment for expedition for my son.

I visited Blacks in Newbury today to get my son kitted out for his upcoming expedition to Cambodia. A huge thanks to Jack for his expert assistance; he was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the range and helping my son choose the right walking boots for the terrain. My son is delighted with the kit. Excellent, knowledgeable service.

Zak made it wonderful for us to shop! He helped us pick out a selection of jumpers for my trip. 10/10!

Excellent product knowledge provided by Zak in selecting a new pair of walking boots.

Jack was incredibly helpful today. We wanted to buy a rucksack for an upcoming D of E expedition and he took the time to guide us through the options and then help fit the bag we selected. He was very knowledgeable and wanted to ensure we had all the information needed to have a successful trip. An amazing service.

Finn fitted a bag and helped me find some coats! Spectacular customer service. Great vibes in here!

Zak was excellent in supporting us with choosing the right equipment and clothing for my son’s Duke of Edinburgh bronze expedition. He was very professional and attentive. Thank you Zak.

Very helpful staff in store. Didn’t have my size so suggested I order on line. Order came very quickly & perfect. Thank you. Both store and online good service.
