Super friendly staff. The one clerk patiently showed me four pairs of rucking boots before I finally settled on a pair for my 9/11 fireman stair challenge. I can say the pair I had certainly helped with the 110 flights of stairs I did. I will definitely go back for all my outdoor gear needs in the future.
Very friendly staff. Super helpful. Local SC biz. Not a big store so selection is limited
Love this store! Its small but has all the great outdoorsy brands. Military discount! Some great finds in the clearance section in the back.
This location’s customer service is excellent!Much better than some big box store. They recently helped me with a warranty return with patagonia. They went above and beyond in during the process making sure I got what I wanted.
A great local place to get unique clothing as well as outdoor sporting supplies!
Such a cool place with an amazing staff!! Great products!
I needed a new pair of outdoor pants and the assistance I received was much appreciated. Trying a new brand of pants at my age is lets say, an uneasy experience. Thats mostly because Im set in my ways. They gave me great help and a quick result!
Nice and friendly staff...Not too much different than REI tho.
This is one my favorite outdoor shops. So much Patagonia, north face, and Columbia. Great service and great location.
So many cool things, very friendly staff who are eager to assist.
Great prices compared to other outfitters very helpful staff
Great selection of outdoor and athleisure clothing plus shoes!! Super, SUPER friendly and helpful staff!
Very nice store. The manager Katie C was an awesome help to our needs. She was extremely attentive and very knowledgeable of the entire store. It’s nice going into a store and management being so friendly. That is a rare find! Way to go HMO
We frequent this store for shoe shopping, outdoor apparel and gear and camping supplies. I love supporting smaller, locally owned shops and this store makes it very easy. They have really nice employees that are knowledgeable about all of the different products and brands that they sell. The employees are friendly and helpful without being overbearing. I highly recommend this store.
Clean and organized store with a good selection of things for your camping/climbing/hiking needs. The staff don’t follow you around but are quick to help if you need any assistance. I love their outlet section in the back too. I have definitely gotten some good deals here.
Clean store, easy going staff, lots of outdoor options. Prices seem to be a little high but the convenience and knowledgeable staff help justify what you pay.
For years, The Backpacker was the go to place for outdoor gear in Columbia. However, long before they closed, that stopped being true. The reason for this is service. And its not just that The Backpacker got worse; its that Half Moon is just so good at service. No matter when we go and no matter who is working, they are always exceptionally friendly and helpful. And, lets face it, when you are a non-discount retailer, service IS your calling card. Saying that, its clear that some stores dont get it. Half Moon clearly does. Half Moon is our first stop for outdoor gear and we will buy there even if the same thing is available cheaper elsewhere. If you think thats crazy, give Half Moon a try and then decide.
Went in to get a pair of hiking boots. Was convinced to get a pair of hiking shoes instead based on friendly feedback, but they didnt have my size. So they shipped the right size in from another store for the next day. I went in the next day and had a different employee who knew even more about hiking shoes and was able to answer all the questions I had! Excellent service, worth it for the higher price 😅
Great service, product knowledge, product quality; the prices a bit higher than most, but somethings are worth paying more for to make sure it performs and last better
Products are high quality and guaranteed to last you! The staff was very helpful and knew what they were talking about. I would definitely recommend going here for all your outdoor needs.
Great place that I didnt even know was here.... Great selection of outdoor and performance products, very helpful associates even with me just sizing products for my daughter and myself. Thank you for the hospitality.
The staff is always great every time my wife and I visit this store.I previously wrote a review about returning a basically new pair or shoes (2 week old Chacos) that had a large manufacturing defect. The shoes were sent back to Chacos for refurbishment as if they were and older pair with associated wear and tear and I was unhappy being left without shoes for a for weeks. Upon realization of this the store was able to replace my defective Chacos for a new pair.This is our favorite outdoor equipment store in Columbia and we are happy that our only gripe was remedied. We will definitely be returning.
I love this place! Id so work here. The staff are ALWAYS on point, knowledgeable, and friendly. The store is clean, neat, and well organized. Ill definitely be back and recommend it to those that love the outdoors seeking equipment.
The place was clean and well organized . The selection of climbing gear was somewhat lacking,the selection was kind of small and what they did have was slim pickings and a bit expensive. But the employees were friendly and helpful as they could be. They seemed to have an extensive variety of everything else for outdoor dun and adventure. I just happened to mention being thirsty while checking out, they generously offered me a hot cup of Kurïg coffee(with all the fixings; flavored creamers and REAL sugar!!!) They had a public restroom as well.
Extremely helpful staff. I still have a patagonia bookbag from here that I purchased over 5 years ago! Great quality products.
Half-Moon Outfitters is a cool store. They definitely have most all of your outdoor needs. Great selection of outdoor clothing and camping gear. Be warned, you will pay Devine St. prices. In their defense, they are selling high end, quality outdoor gear.
Grat service, military discount, great store
I recently rented a Kayak for the weekend. Last year I rented one & did not have a great experience.... Regardless of the service last year I decided to try it again. A young man named Michael (Eleazor (maybe on the last name)) was awesome. Because of him not only will I be back to rent a Kayak but I will try to come & support your store with other purchases. Kudos to whomever hired him & replaced to two guys from last year. If I recommend your store you can believe I will tell them to ask for Mike!!! Thanks Half-Moon !!!
Great service. Enjoyable atmosphere. Prices are competitive.
I found exactly what I wanted and was very pleased with the kind helpful staff . A lot of very great things here !
They have a great selection of outdoor gear/wear and the staff was very helpful and able to answer any question I had!
I have not had the displeasure in quite a while until recently when the all-male staff spoke to me and my younger sister so mysoginisticly and patronizingly. One staff member went to the degree of saying “Ma’am, you and your daughter wouldn’t understand this kind of stuff” (referring to myself and my younger sister when I asked about dog-related items) and continued with “go ask your husband.”I’d suggest to go to another store for camping and hiking gear if you’d prefer to avoid sexist, ignorant, and ill-mannered staff.Thank you.
Went in to get some hiking shoes. Salesperson was very helpful and knowledgeable. He could speak about the products because he used them himself
A great shop for a variety of outdoor clothes and equipment.
Ive spent incredibly way too much money here. My go-to stop for all my hiking and camping gear
Selection of footwear is limited
Super helpful and friendly staff! Lots of great gear choices with experts ready to share their knowledge with you.
This place is very cool, but quite expensive. The store looks great and has a great selection. I really liked the clearance room.
Nice place but to snobby for me I got a wedge but awesome ppl
Great selection, found flip flops in clarence section
Bit pricey
This store is big time swag. Nice selection
We were greeted as we walked in the door and taken to the hiking boots within the first minute and then helped with fitting my wife with hiking boots and socks by a friendly young man (unfortunately I do not remember his name). This was quite a change from another local store where we were not waited on for more than 20 minutes and left.As a result we spent over $200 and will return to Half Moon Outfitters in the future.
They had cider and donuts. A wise, thoughtful, and caring staff. Especially the employee who helped me with a beard
Great outdoor activity store.
Great place on Devine street to get outdoor gear. Not the cheapest in the area, but still a very good place with knowledgeable staff.
I was amazed at the quality and quantity of inventory in this store! Numerous name brands, well organized, and great customer service.
Great store, good customer service, a little on the expensive side but great place to shop
Very attentive employees. Very knowledgeable about the products they were selling.
This place is awesome - They have the best hiking, camping, patagonia, north face, mountain ridge gear around. 10/10 staff as well.
What excellent customer service! Its been a while since Ive actually felt like store associates wanted to help out and theirs associates went above and beyond.
Excellent selection, prices are a bit high but relative to what they are selling.
Excellent selection of merchandise, a refreshing alternative to big box outdoor supply stores.
Nice store. Will be going back.
Incredibly knowledgable staff, great selection.
Helpful, knowledgeable crew with a great outlet selection
Nice and clean. Staff was pretty helpful.
Great store and friendly staff.
It is one thing to write a mission statement, it is another all together to live it. At Half Moon Outfitters their objective is to go above and beyond,
Really nice employees and great care given to customers
Nice store with a great staff.
Goid stuff; pricey.
Love this store!!! They got everything you could ever want!!
Great service very helpful.
Good store lots of outdoors stuff

One of our go-to spots for outdoor gear you cant get at the big box stores
Just a kind of chill place, got some dope flip flops here.
