Terrible customer service.

Went to return some shoe glue that did not work. A staff member there had suggested it to me, but when I got on the trail the stuff failed within a mile.

What made it worse, is the manager there insinuated that I didn't even get it from quest, which he chose to do in front of tons of other customers which was pretty embarrassing.

Im not from Louisville and this was my first time in this store. I was so disappointed that I got in to late because they were closing early for the holiday. The staff was extremely friendly and they had an amazing product assortment. The prices were also in line with any other outdoors store ive shopped. Thank you quest

Visited the Shelbyville location today to purchase a gift. Walked into the store took several minutes to locate a salesperson. Was directed by this person where the merchandise was, found another salesperson to help me. Although, there were no other customers around he was not interested in helping and answering my questions. He showed me the labels and left me. On the way to pay I picked up several other small items to purchase. At the cash register the guy was preoccupied talking to another worker going as far as calling me "sir". Is this home town service from a local store? I go out of my way to support local stores, but I don't know if this customer service was worth keeping it local. There are many other choices...

I love Quest!

First off: The Base Camp Coffee, Drake is on point. Delicious drinks from a cool dude.

They also have a used and marked down section that I highly recommend.

The rest of the store is full of knowledgeable staff that wants to help.

Quest has EVERYTHING for the outdoors. From gear, to nice looking clothing, Quest has it all. Four of us purchased boots at Quest, prior to walking 250 miles last year, on the Camino De Santiago, in Portugal and Spain. None of us experienced any blisters, which normally are a common problem on the Camino.

Can be quite a bit more expensive than buying online, but sometimes buying local is worth it. Their clearance section is always worth a look. Plus, they have a nice coffee shop downstairs.

The worst part about trying to come here is dealing with Shelbyville Road traffic and then finding parking.

Staff is always very helpful. They sell top quality stuff. Unfortunately, the prices are very high as well. Be prepared to dish out some dough. The good news is that those items should last you a life time. If you are serious about outdoor gear, this is your place. Don't forget to try their coffee. It's awesome as well.

Very pleased each time making a purchase, here. Within the last month I bought a Thule car box for the roof of our SUV. The managers and staff were incredibly helpful when we picked it out and lent suggestions and their opinion on the model and size. They understood what we were looking for and were patient while we took a little time to decide on which to invest in. They promptly helped us to install it on our roof, gave some helpful hints for use, and we were on our way. Very happy with the end result and took the car box with us for a road trip of 20+ hours of driving. Definitely a level of customer service you do not receive buying from Amazon or other big box stores. Thanks, guys!

Below is my original review. Mr. King the owner did contact me very quickly and fixed any issue I had. He only required me to come into the store to exchange or return. Scott sent word of apology. I left converted to a very happy customer. While there, Bobby talked me right into more of the Smart Wool socks. He was also apologetic and very knowledgeable about their products. I will be back to Quest Outdoors..... SOON. A much more personal experience then any of the larger chain outdoor stores Mr. King is a "Stand-up" business owner. Thanks. /////////

(1 star) My first experience and last with Quest Outdoors was at the St. Mathews location. I purchased after dealing with a great sales person a $150.00 pair of Treksta water proof hiking shoes.

The shoe Failed to be water proof as promised. Upon returning to the store, Scott a "manager" chose to make me a very unhappy customer. He let me know that to complete the return the shoe needed to be in like new condition. Scott how could a hiking boot that failed to be waterproof while on my foot be in like new condition? To make matters worse he was aggressive and rude in delivering the news to me, a customer in his mind I would imagine is always wrong. I rate my experience a One because of Scott the only bad employee I came in contact with out of 4 and taking in consideration their evidently very flawed return policy. Would Bass Pro or Cabela's treat me like this? Never have!!
