About Scheels

Walking into a Scheels store is closer to a theme park than a sporting goods run - Ferris wheels and massive aquariums inside some locations are part of the pitch, alongside a genuinely huge selection spanning firearms to fashion. The online store carries that same everything-under-one-roof range.

It draws hunters and anglers as much as it does families outfitting kids for a new sport. The 90-day window is unusually generous, but firearms, ammunition, and opened car seats are hard non-returnable categories worth knowing about before you buy.

What they sell

  • Firearms, ammunition, and hunting gear
  • Fishing rods, reels, and tackle
  • Athletic apparel and footwear
  • Team sports equipment and fan gear
