Big 5 Sporting Goods, Torrance CA

Got their best hiking boots as recommended by salesman. Fit perfectly without breaking in. Trail ready.

I used to spend $$$$ on expensive running shoes because I had problematic feet, and most shoes gave me pain. After I went to a speciality running store and learned what type of shoes and support I needed (high stability, hard/firm insoles) and the proper way to tie running shoelaces, I could just come here to buy way cheaper shoes once I knew what to look for.

I love how they have sales all the time, and the website is easy to navigate and tells you what’s in stock at your store.

Some of the styles may be a bit outdated and might not be the trendiest option, but if you are looking for form over function, then this is the place to go to. And did I mention that you can’t beat the prices?

Plenty of parking in a shared lot, friendly service. And thanks for letting me know today that I can sign up for coupons sent over email!:)

I'm grateful they held a pair of shoes for me for like 27 28 hrs there only supposed to hold 24 thank you pch big 5 if I could give a 10 rating I would great customer service during the virus big 5 corporate should be proud of store eli and girl working register were great

Small, very crowded, very pleasant employee and friendly willing to help locate what you are looking for.

I usually give 5 star reviews as long as everything was reasonable and the employees where polite and working to the best of there abilities. But I'm going to give 4 stars this time because I was a little befuddled to find out that a sporting goods store with a water sport section in Southern California about 3 miles more or less from a very famous beach known for year round surfing, swimming, diving and was even mentioned in very famous songs sung by no other than The Beach Boys didn't keep swim wear in stock all year round.
The gentleman that helped me was very kind and even suggest some other places I should try and he apologized for not having more swim wear in stock and I knew it was not his fault in the least bit. I blame poor business practices by the corporation for missing out on a huge market by labeling swim suits as "Seasonal wear" IN CALIFORNIA! But they had half the store completely jammed pack with snow gear 3 MILES FROM REDONDO BEACH! I really hope an executive or someone in charge of merchandise sees this review and recognizes just how ridiculous this is that a SPORTING GOODS STORE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, 3 MILES FROM A MAJOR YEAR AROUND BEACH doesn't keep swim suits in stock in there WATER SPORTS SECTION like seriously? They had goggles and snorkle and dive equipment and swim caps and stuff to plug or nose and your ears I even saw boogie boards but only one small rack of swim wear of whatever was left over from the summer! Why even have a water sports section? There missing a huge market! Ok I'm done with my rant now. I wound up going to the good will like 50 yards away and I found a huge selection of swim wear and shorts even a cute cover up, sandals and a sun hat to match! Im still going to shop at big 5, they haven't lost my business but I'm very disappointed that I can't buy a simple bathing suit or even a rash guard at a sporting goods store 3 miles from the beach!

This place always comes in handy for someone like me, they offer great deals online on the daily (sign up for their newsletter) and it's very convenient for anyone that is always active or looking for sporting goods

Went in to buy an exercise bike. Wouldn't you know it they didn't have the one we wanted but they had it in "INGLEWOOD", Who wants to drive to gang infested "INGLEWOOD"? So we were forceto by a model$200.00 dollar plus! I would've give one star if it weren't for s good employee.

Small store with somewhat limited selection. Also slightly understaffed with employees that had limited knowledge of the products.

Small sporting good store packed to the brim with everything you might need in a hurry! Good deals too!

If you're looking for affordable sports gear, this is the place to go. They're not top end, but they have what gets the job done.

Usually stop by for their shoe sales. Decent prices and selection and when you combine the sale with the coupon sent in the mail, the final price of the name brand shoe can't be beat.

I used to shop here all the time but they really did not have what I was looking for, but since Sport Chalet has closed down, this place has alot more to offer now, so now I be shopping here again.

This particular Big 5 always has friendly staff to help. You may not always have the widest selection, but they are always willing to look to find you the best product and price. This is my go-to store partly because it's convenient to my house and partly because it's reasonably well stocked and usually pretty good on prices, comprable to online for what I have looked for. They do have a rather extensive and fashionable selection of exercise clothing for women, and to my surprise good selection of youth football gear. I can't speak to their shoe selection, that I have never been impressed with, but I'm not there to buy shoes anyway. So that's okay

They have some great products for a great price. Also they are a great place to come if you need something in a hurry.

U can find really good deals here sometimes! I looked all over for a good tent without having to spend a lot of money and they had a lot of sales on camping equipment. Found a Coleman tent that I love without having to spend a lot!

Dislike when line is long & they only have one cashier once ok, twice it happens but most of the time no matter what time we go in

Convenient location with great service. It's a small store, but they pack in the merchandise. Everything from guns to shoes. This location has been here for our youth teams while the big stores have come and gone. SHOP LOCAL!

We were in line to pickup a firearm, the store closed before we were helped. Nonetheless, they still completed the transaction after closing time.

Great store.staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. They have great sales. I often come here to buy tennis shoes

Well I rate it a 3 since I stop by to get a quick look at some work boots. I was asked if I needed assistance but I was in a rush and did not make a purchase.
