I’ve been looking for Patagonia products all over the place up here and was able to find this place had exactly what I was looking for. Had no idea Downwind carried Patagonia and they came in clutch! Ended up purchasing a new sweatshirt and beanie. Staff was super friendly and helpful everything!. Hard to believe this store is within walking distance from my apartment and I’ve never been here until now. Great place to shop and I highly recommend shopping here!

Staff here is always helpful. Just about anything you could want for outdoor activities. And their disc golf selection is very large

Mqt is lucky to have so many awesome gear stores in town! If its outdoor gear related - stop in! They always help me with water sports and camping gear! Great brands and great selection. Nice work folks!

Its so great to have this locally owned and operated sports shop in our midst. The owners are great folks and their employees are always helpful and enthusiastic. Amazon may be OK for a mop, but there are things you just need to touch and feel and discuss with folks who know something about them before buying. Im pretty sure that Jeff Bezos doesnt care a bit about you anyway. I know that the Downwind team actually does. Buy as much as you can from Downwind - everyone wins. Owners, Staff, Local community, and - YOU.

Great store with knowledgeable & friendly staff.I bought my Giant Trance through Downwind Sports & try to buy whatever I can locally whenever possible. #shoplocal

Had my crank on my bike tightened today, free of charge. Everyone was very kind and polite. I cant remember his name but he held the door for me. Overall, Ill definitely be coming back to check out their selection of other outdoor gear!*Edit*I ended up just getting a new bike from here! Staff was super kind and patient. Highly recommend Down Wind Sports!!

I was traveling through Marquette and needed a new sleeping bag. I first went to a competitor who only had one sleeping bag in stock of the wrong size style. I stopped in here and they had a good selection and a great price on mountain hardware bag. They guy at the checkout was also very well informed about the northern lights viewing potential for the next several days. If Im ever in town again and need some gear, Im heading here first!!!

Jeff and rest of staff are truly awesome!!!!Bought my wife’s Liv Intrigue Advanced 2, which is AWESOME by the way, from them. Just completely incredible service from the very start. Communication since has been very satisfying. Would recommend them to anyone, definitely a forever destination in the U.P.

They were great from the moment I walked in to when I left with my bike. They helped contact the frame manufacturer and get me my new warranty frame even though I didnt even buy the bike there. Ill definitely be making them my main bike shop.

The staff did an awesome job finding parts for my bike and got me back on the trails quickly. Amazing selection of brand name clothing and sporting gear. I proudly represent them with their sticker on my car. Thank You!

Stopped here a couple of times to re-supply on the way to climb. Great little sports store. For as small of a shop it is, they do a great job packing a great selection of gear into the store. Awesome friendly staff. Lots of knowledge and experience in the staff.

Always helpful! Parker helped to set me up with cross country skis x2 and also taught me the basics of waxing. I will make sure to stop in whenever I am in Marquette!

Over the last 5-10 years, it is well known that bike shops have lost more and more customers to online retailers. Many riders have learned to do minor repairs in their garage, while saving money on parts, etc... This has forced bike shops to change their business model to better serve customers and carry parts needed for common failures or wear. ESPECIALLY when these bike shops are in known biking hot spots. Down Wind Sports fails to carry the most basic parts, such as Shimano XT brake pads and uses COVID-19 shock as an excuse even though they are readily available at nearly every online retailer (e.g., REI). And the response to can you take them off a stock bike since a drove 6.5 hours to ride here was you arent the first person to request it.My advice: Find a better shop that will regularly stock items to support not the first time requests or buy online. Pathetic bike shop that will fail just like all of the other shops who do not adapt.

Recently took a small kids bike there for an issue with a coaster hub. When I went to pick it up, I tested it and found no change from when it was dropped off. They took it back up to the shop and shortly after they told me I needed a new chain and that was causing my issue. I took the bike home and after a few YouTube videos I had the hub disassembled, cleaned, found a bad bearing and fixed that, greased everything, reassembled, and adjusted the tension on the hub (main problem), within an hour I had it going very good, with the same chain on it.Overall, I really felt that since I didnt have a $3000+ bike in there, it wasnt worth there time, which is fine, but tell me that when I drop it off, not 3-4 days later.The good news is I wasnt charged anything so I was only out the time it was at the shop.

Great gear for many sports and not just for beginners but also for experts

Food was great. Would get 5 stars but I watched the waitress mess up on every single table in the restaurant. It wasnt that busy in there because of lowered capacity.

Outstanding Guides for Family Rock Climbing ExperienceIf you have a chance to go with Bill and Bryan for a rock climbing outing, jump on it. They were able to accommodate our familys wide range of abilities and their ability to teach us as we tried new routes was spot-on helpful. We all had a lot of fun! It was well worth the expense.

I shop the Munising store frequently. Its great. Helpful staff, with a good selection of ice climbing gear at reasonable prices. So I went to the Marquette store to buy a pair of approach skis because they didn’t have any in Munising. Wanted to buy local. 3 or 4 people working in store and nobody would talk to me. I finally went and had to ask a salesperson and as soon as I walked up they made a gesture to wait and grabbed a phone and started making a call. Couldn’t believe it. Went straight to the Sports Rack, had great customer service, and got some Fischer S-Bounds for a good discount. I actually wanted Rossignols but I’m not going to beg for customer service. I definitely was buying skis that day, and I also was in the market for a nice enduro mtb which is a way bigger markup and money maker, but my business went elsewhere. I have some friends that work there, and they’re the best, they just aren’t/weren’t on the floor in Marquette unfortunately. (This was before COVID times when things were normal too)

So I wasn’t sure of what was available for my needs. The person that helped me decide was very accommodating. I wasn’t sure if I could use the rack I needed so he went so far as installing the rack then taking a bike off of the show room floor to see if I could mount the bike on the rack on my car. He showed me the best way to get that done. I bought them and I m so happy with the purchase that I’m buying kayak racks tomorrow.They are very nice people.

Very friendly staff. Customer service is some of the best that Ive ever experienced in my life. Solve my problems quickly and efficiently. Brought the bike in for service but they did even more than what I asked them to do. Excellent experience overall.

Very knowledgeable staff. Extremely friendly people with outdoor experience and expertise. They have clothing, shoes/boots, gear and lots of accessories for camping, hiking, biking, etc. They also carry bikes, kayaks, paddleboards, etc. I loved this store. Ive never seen a frisbee quite like what they offer. Worth the trip!

Great shop. The staff greeted us immediately and were incredibly friendly. They have a great selection of gear and bikes

Great shop and atmosphere, the staff was very helpful and happy to share some trail knowledge. Great prices on bikes to. We will be back when in town again. Thanks.

The staff were so helpful and friendly. We were just in town for a week and they really helped us with recommendations for good hikes nearby. Also, if youre a North Country Trail hiker, definitely stop in. They were very hiker-friendly and even held a box for us to pick up on our way. Awesome trail town gear shop!

This local businesses, is always helpful and has amazing products.

Bought bikes from them, recently had a tubeless tire repaired. Quick reasonable $$. Awesome store, really nice staff.

While this shop has many great products to offer, the staff is less than friendly. Dont get me wrong, the young kids are nice but the older gentlemen / owners are there for the kill. They will do everything they can to get every dollar out of you. Dont ask too many questions to Todd or he will start talk to you in a very condescending tone. If you know a lot about bikes you will be fine, but if you are not an expert, prepare to be taken advantage of and talked down to. I really wanted to have a great experience here but it just did not happen......

Excellent service. Brought my paddle in years after purchase and they helped figure out why it wouldnt come apart easily anymore, plus gave me new calibration decal for free. And didnt make me feel stupid!

These guys are the best. They have always been understanding a helpful. They consistently do their best to bring equipement to the area that is new and innovative. Top notch.

SAVED OUR TRIP!Had a bent derailleur hanger/ dent spoke/ possible totaled derailleur itself. Walked in and Ian dropped everything and was able to save the derailleur! He made sure we had a working bike that night so we could leave first thing the next morning for copper harbor. Very friendly staff! Would not go anywhere else!

I had a torn old bike rack strap. Not only could they help with that, We ended up with new helmets and a few new accessories because the staff was so helpful! Thanks !

Great selection and very helpful staff. Trevor was great! Thanks!

Ive shopped at Down Wind for a lot of things in the past three years. The staff is always very polite, the rewards program is very useful if you buy a lot of stuff (like a bike), and the sales are always a great thing to stop for.

Great group of people: knowledgeable, friendly, and they know how to take care of their customers.

Nothing was in my size and the employee made both this and their prices my problem.

Friendly staff, great location, helpful, great selection of different products.

Great friendly helpful service! So proud of all the love they put into our community!

Great service. Helpful with questions and repairs.

Fantastic staff and gear for outdoor enthusiasts.

I brought my bike there to get a tire changed last year. I go to change my tube this spring and the bolt to get my tire off is stripped out and I cant get it off.

Very kind staff and a nice dog

Nice sales reps.

The hours are from 10 am to 7 pm Mon-FriAnd 10am to 5pm on Sat and 11 am to 3 pm on Sunday

Great selection!
