This is a Mountain Equipment Co-op. It is a fantastic place for winter clothes and warm underwear. It is also great for winter equipment although this particular location is mainly clothing not choose not equipment not bikes. And the staff was very helpful the dressing rooms they're comfortable and the place in general a pleasant experience. I would have to recommend this to anyone. In particular if you're visiting from out of town and you're fighting Montreal are they called this is where you want to go to armor yourself up against the weather.

MEC is an acronym for Mountain Equipment Coop. You need to pay a one time fee (I paid 5 years ago, maybe it's still 5) to purchase from this place. I come here to buy outdoor gear (you can also rent sports equipment, this allows you to try before you buy, or just rent things you don't use often enough). I prefer purchasing here than most large corporate stores. All in all, the customer experience is good. I have nothing negative that comes to mind, having been a member of this coop for over a decade!
A nicely-sized store with gloves, shoes, sleeping bags, running clothes, and more. Staff was helpful, though could know more about some products and their differences. They were able to help me find my old membership registration though!
Service is always amazing. They do have a limited inventory compared to their bigger stores in the subburbs, because of space constraints, but the selection is very well thought out. You can also order anything from their catalog and it’s usually ready for pickup within 1-2 days!
Clothing only -- this seems like an urban outpost of MEC - clothes and small goods only. I went here on an arctic day and bought snow pants. Good service. Their house-brand clothing are reasonably priced and good quality. Staff are attentive but relaxed.
Quiet store, friendly staff, good selection of outdoor products for urban needs. You can purchase the Coop card at 5 if I remember correctly. If you need outdoor stuff for the proper outdoors, it's a better bet to go to the marché central location, where you can also rent equipment if you need to. But yeah, just for bike lights, water bottles, clothes and that kind of stuff - the store is minutes away from the metro and at a super convenient location!
Visited for a raincoat showed to be on stock in this particular store. A guy in the showroom could not find it. It turned out to be already packed for closing inventory, but the manager found it and gave me an additional discount for the inconvenience. I love MEC not for excellent quality of stuff only, but for the excellent staff, too! Way to go! Not 5 stars because the washroom was closed for renovation; this is a challenge to be there with a toddler.
This is a small MEC--take note of this before shopping there, as this outlet really only sells clothing (no biking, or other sporting equipment). I've shopped here on several occasions and service has always been very good, with store staff going out of their way to help me find the items I need/want. I do recommend this store, provided you are aware that you'll be restricted to buying clothing only.
