    Still not a great company these days, but at least it’s back in Canadian hands again.

    They lost me when I wanted to buy barefoot shoes they had on the shelf and the guy was mocking me. Then a second person from staff mocked me as well when she overheard. I just left and never stepped inside one of their stores again.

      That’s bullshit behaviour by staff. When was that? I haven’t really liked going in there for the last few years.

      That sucks. I’ve always wanted to try them but never got a pair since I’ve heard they’re not great on concrete and I unfortunately still live in the city.

      Did you ever end up buying some?

          Ah, then I’ll have to look up some city-focused reviews and see if they might be right for me. Thanks for the response.

    Take off that flag you fuckers have draped yourselves in.

    MEC is dead, and I will never set foot in one again.
