This place is great for work clothes. There is not a lot of reasonable places in the area to buy good boots and construction clothing. The staff is always friendly and helpful. I have found myself shopping there more often than I thought I would.

The place has a lots of merchandise...but not something which stands out. Prices are not so attractive... The goods are just bulk quantity of same stuff... Not enough variety to compare and select.The merchandise quality is so so as mostly made in China and quality is questionable.Staff is courteos if you have plenty of time you may find some good stuff.The mixture of western, working boots, camping gear but no actual camp tent I found. So its better to go for a specific store what your needs are. Or else you will have to figure out.. what you are looking for?No stand out Brands... especially for Camping...I prefer investment in gears for long Life even if I have to pay more. However we all have different taste and requirements. No items were on sale. The price of the various items were not as competitive as other specialized stores.

Wicked cool store, anything for the outdoor enthusiast, massive selection of work pants,boots,you name it they have it. Paracord by Atwood Rope,made in the USA,thats huge with me. Staff is very friendly and accommodating,will point you in the right direction. If Carhartt is your brand,get here,they have piles of it.Kudos to yall atStephens Creek Surplus!!!!😎

Excellent surplus store. Reminds me of how surplus stores used to be. They have a little bit of everything.

Great place to buy surplus, camping equipment, jeans, boots, rain gear, hats, knives and so much more. This place is a blast just to visit and take in all their inventory of quality products. If you hang around the counter youll generally find the owner who is pleasant, friendly and always positive creating a great vibe in a truly unique, one of a kind store..... Love love love this place, highly recommend...

Very helpful and humorous clerks. Well organized store with huge selection of mens pants and boots. Small yet sufficient selection for women, I found exactly what I wanted. And after shopping you can get a pizza from next door!

Huge selection of outdoor and camping equipment, tools, clothes and shoes. also some nice collectibles and knives at the entrance.not the cheapest place but if you look for a variety of equipment from good brands - thats your place.

Shopping here often. Today found things needed for camping trip coming up. Found most items we needed at least $10.00 cheaper than TARGET advertised prices. Staff very friendly and efficient.

Love this place! They have lots of Carhartt, Dickies, Levis & Ben Davis pants and shirts at great prices. Thermals, boots, Vans, and much more!! Been coming here for years and they alway have what Im looking for, and if not, they can order it if its out of stock.

Best place to buy boots! Very knowledgeable staff. Not the best pricing, however, the quantity and selection of products makes it worthwhile. They also offered incredible selection of Vans shoes and products.

I received great service while shopping for some boots. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They have a great selection! Its an interesting store all the way around!

The BEST STORE ON EARTH to me still. Camping, work, Military, Officer gear is still the pinnacle of there mission ...GEAR UP.

I didnt catch his name but older gentleman with glasses in boot section helped me out. VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE. He recommended these #Carhartt boots and I was sold as soon as I tried them on!Comfortable and lightweight which is perfect for my line of work. THANKS AGAIN!! Much Appreciated !

Professional, helpful, & opened door on time (which was important to me today...to buy something & still get to work on time) . Thank you

I love it had great costumer service

Too many people in super narrow isles! All isles run the full length of the store, front to back, so its impossible to observe social distancing. Even getting in line meant squeezing down an isle with barely a foot of space between people. There is also a homeless person camped out in front of the business with a full on structure built against window. Its difficult to shop with the store set up and the employees act like everyone is trying to steal from them. Bad vibe

I Love This Place.Havent Been Here For Over Ten Years.Moved back To Gilroy But I Must Say It Has Become Even Better Over the Years.They Even Have Vans Shoes Now .Old School Even More Perfect Now.The Employees Are Really Helpful And Nice. They Treat You like Family.Be Back Soon and Spend Alot more on camping and survival gear. Thanks For Just Being There.

I just bought a few Carhartt shirts, for work. I need to go back and get one more and a belt. An employee working at the Target in Santa Clara, on Stevens Creek referred me to them when I told her I was looking for work shirts.

My go to place for years! Uniform pants, work clothes, and Vans, for great prices and selection. Best of all is the customer service and wonderful staff who remember you and make a genuine effort to ask how you have been!

It has a variety of pants shirts hats thermols, camping gear and more. Employees are professional and courteous.

This place has the best quality work shoes/boots in town. I wont shop anywhere else for shoes. I love coming here for quality clothing and camping stuff. Way better than REI any day.

Super Staff. They were friendly from the start. Awesome selection and layout for camping, shoes/Boots, and, clothes. Fun place to visit and find that right item. Thank You to all the Staff.

Very nice selection of work boots and work clothes, very helpful in finding the thorogood Boots in the size I needed

One of my most favorite places on the planet!! When it comes to surplus with a combination of customer service you wont find anywhere else that can top this place. Definitely recommend if your looking to find surplus of any genre!

Be warned, military surplus only makes up less than 10% of the store. In that 10%, most are modern reproductions of bomber jacket and flecktarn style clothing. For ww2 clothing, you will find nothing other than a few American helmets. They have a large selection of its and bits such as straps, paracord, spray camo paint, and holsters. 80% of the store has hardware style clothing and boots. There are a lot of knives, pins, and camping gear. Great store for modern clothing but dont expect anything older than that.

Arrived late but got what I needed! Great story as they have so much clothing, army clothing, camping gear and tons of shoes and mostly all types of 👢. Really a great place to shop.

Great store. Just kinda over price. Somethings you could purchase on Amazon for cheaper price

A+. Hands down best selection of EDC pocket knives and hunting knives anywhere in San Jose. Wide selection of both high end and economy cutlery. They also have an impressively large selection of boots and shoes. Staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

Wide selection of general mens boots and military surplus.Only place I can trust to get decent boots.

The only brick and mortar store that satisfies my clothing needs. Great sock selection. Keen and 5.11 instock

Well stocked inventory. I always find all Carhartt products here.

Love this place n staff, very informative. You NEED SECURITY though. SECURITY!!! Two different times I was there, rude customers were yelling at the poor staff, looked like it was going to get physical even when told the police were going to be called, another time a thief came in and if she wasnt wearing a mask she would have spat on the employees while blaming staff for a pair of shoes she try to shoplift.No other store like it, but avoiding bad vibes and stupid people at all cost.

Just looking for one thing. Quick in and out. Got help with question. My Go to place for sure for mens work clothes.

Great surplus military store and a complete one at that! A true one stop shop for your outdoor needs!

Bought some MREs here mainly for nostalgic reasons. They have many brands in stock. It’s nice to see all of them side-by-side and in person. I was able to find the one from my Boy Scout years that includes the little Tabasco bottle and boring chewing gum.They have a ton of camp cooking supplies too. Selection seems to be much bigger than Big5.Will come again for my camping needs!

The place was great, I got some Vietnam War Era gear for some decent prices for the condition. The assistant manager who was in charge of the surplus gear was super friendly and was really kind. Would recommend if you want some old gear 👍

Great place for tactical and construction gear .

Never been but went on my lunch to find working boots because i needed them same day, the weather has been terrible lately but the selection was plentiful and i found a great pair, thanks

Plenty of good condition clothes and shoes and hats.

Nice variety of goods. A bit pricey, but overall an enjoyable experience.

Great place with different brands and very helpful staff!

Good place for shopping

Nice knowledgeable staff get my work apparel there. Nice selection of various manufacturers

Awesome store, new Ben Davis apparel, military surplus, its a Marines paradise

Clean and nicely laid out. Expensive.

They have a lot of military surplus and MREs. Theres also uniforms and camping gear.

They have good staff!!!!

Not following Social distancing, staff even running around with masks below the nose. Then we were scolded for asking for help to find a shoe size... that if theyd had itd be in that row.Anyway...After the employee left us I found the shoe Id asked about while pulling out my second choice.Decent selection of work boots, many sizes missing with shelves empty of popular clothing.

My favorite local toy store

This place always has good customer service The only bad thing is they never have anything in stock

Easy to find what you want.

This is my most favorite place to get my work boots and other accessories to keep warm

Good for military surplus, camping, and emergency prep supplies.

Great selection and very friendly staff. Always a good experience

Good collection of hard to find, high quality stuff. Store staff is friendly. Some items have better price than others, overall a fund place to visit.

Knowledgeable staff that is ready to help. I bought my work boots here and I love them.

I always get my work boots at SCS. As a UPS driver, I need durable and lightweight. They have a huge selection and Mike knows work boots and shoes! I wont look anywhere else.

There for work but they have a good selection, good service.

I love this place a lot of selection and good stuff Ive been shopping this place since 2016

I am a steady customer. I needed work specific shoes, and found a big variety. I have bought many shoes, boots, socks, cold weather protection, rain gear, even a compass, because they do have camp gear. I found a lightweight pouch to carry a phone or camera on my belt. This store has been there a long time. There is a reason why. Especially if you work, and are on your feet outdoors, its a gear store to find what you need. If you like camping and hiking, you will like this store as well. Flashlights, lanterns, stoves. And you can pick all these things up, look them over, see how it works and is made, and buy it that day and take it home. Friendly service. Great selection.

Great place for military surplus item, camping stuff and shoes. Sales knives and clothing. Has a good selection of work cloth, gloves and safety shoes. You can find a lot of item here. And they run sales often where you can usually get 15%off. Carries name brands like cahart, North face, Spyderco, Benchmade, Carolina etc...

Great staff, excellent selection, and convenient location in San Jose. I will definitely return.

Excellent variety of apparel staff is very friendly prices are moderate

Lots of clothes and knives. Getting help for what I was actually looking for was zilch. Serious lack of parking.

This place is amazing!!!!Im a female construction worker and they carry Dovetail and Kuhl womens work wear. Hella boots in all sizes.They also carry every variety and style of Vans, for when Im not at work.Prices are very fair. As a matter of fact, the Dovetail pants are $15 cheaper here.Its a 2 hour drive to get here but worth the journey. I might also stop and grab one of the world famous falafels at the Falafel Drive-in while Im here.

Best store to buy all your work wear and outdoor supplies. Guaranteed to have everything you need.

Havent visited in a while but this store rules

Absolutely fantastic with great customer service and products

Got exactly what i needed. Great help and decent prices. Will be going back for more...

I love this place. My go-to for any outdoor camping needs. They have fishing knives, Flint sticks, awesome sleeping bags, and so so much more! Love this place- Ill be back!

Okay surplus, great workwear

Employees were very rude. Tried rushing me through my purchase.

Very expensive for a surplus store.Most basic items have a 1.5 - 2x markup. $9 ammo cans go for $22. Basic gear like $3 rope sells for $7.This is a great store to go to, and see what items exist in the outdoor camping space. However, buying anything here is a waste of money.

Carhartt everything!... I go here to pick up all my Carhartt needs. The selection is outstanding. Sets this store aside from the rest... Camping gear, military gear, Knives, flashlights, gloves 🧤 hats, shoes, boots. I have literally bought all of my clothes here for years.

I could spend hours in this store. They have so much cool stuff!

I was told the store had American made items by a friend. He did warn me that there was an older gentleman in the store who almost caused him to leave. I went to the store and was greeted by a very friendly staff person who tried to help. While helping me the older guy came over and told her that other customers were more important. She attended to them and they dismissed her. Then when she returned he told her that they were more important again. At that time I told him both of them could cater to them because I was leaving. If the old guy is not the owner you need to get rid of him. He just cost you business

Great store very well kept and the people are nice and helpful

They have the best quality and selection of work clothes anywhere. I bought cargo shorts. I will always pay more for good quality. The made in China Walmart shorts tore or the buttons just fell off.

Excellent customer service (:;

Staff was nice, prices were pretty good, and the store was much more cleaner than other surplus stores. This is my go to surplus store

Very helpful staff! Especially in the shoe department

If youre looking for steel toes for any work-related clothing Stevens Creek surplus is my go-to store. They have many many different varieties and the staff is pretty knowledgeable about the different types and their benefits and downsides. Four other random related stuff like camping and military surplus gear that they have a lot of good selection at pretty good rates.

Way better all around...than that Alameda place!!WAY BETTER!! FOR SURE....

Great selection, awesome service. We love this store

A little disorganized, but if you have the time and patience, you can find a few gems here and there. Recently came upon a cute little thick coat for my daughter, probably normally over $60.. bought for $8.. brand new!

If you looking for work clothes and boots with a nice prices tag this is the spot 😉👌

...a little pricey, nevertheless great store, friendly people and great work brands!

Not a bad spot. I get my boots here. Staff is super helpful.

I bought working shoes from here today. Everything was good except their customer servicing was sometimes confusing or argumentative. They have everything there with a fair price.

This is in response to my last review it was a special vest that has Velcro and patches and he said he had the specific patch and vest wasted time and money gas and well being . Pizza next door is great 👍🏻

Great place for socks to pants! Friendly and helpful employees!! Looking for a good knife or outdoor gear they have that also!!

Its a pretty alright place. Large selection of items. From work clothes to camping gear to skating shoes, theyve got a broad range of products. Though I cant shake the feeling of being followed by an employee every time Im in here.

So many options! One-stop-shop! The owner was very helpful...saw I was looking for something and made sure someone helped me. All prices are reasonably priced. I bought a 32x21 duffle bag for only $20 +tax. Conveniently located. Looking forward to my next trip!

Love this store! Everything you need for camping & work attire plus more!

So many Knives!!!!!!!!

Great store, awesome selection of boots, pants, clothes, camping gear and knives. Prices are not the lowest but the selection is great. I went in the other day looking for a knife and the guy recommended a Kershaw Knockout 1870. I bought it and, wow, this is surely the best knife I have ever owned.

Staff Knows Where Most things are,Beautiful Knife Selection,Reasonable prices.

If u need it they got it

There arent too many war surplus stores anymore...one of the better ones...if you need it immediately good place to go...if you can wait prices on line like at optics planet is cheaper.

Everybody that works at this place rocks you go in there I spent 3 hours this last time only left with $129 worth of things but want the stove wet seal bag air mattress sitting chair all great stuff propane for the stove new stove awesome
