About Sports Basement
Since 1998, Sports Basement has been more than a sporting goods store - we're a community hub offering the best brands at Basement prices, with giving back baked into our DNA. What started as a weekend-only shop in a San Francisco warehouse has grown into multiple fully stocked Bay Area locations, several newly opened Southern California stores, in-house snow and bike shops, a thriving rentals program, and a robust ecommerce website at sportsbasement.com. We've come a long way, and we couldn't be prouder of the company we've become.
Our Mission
We're here to help our communities shine a little brighter, live a little greener, and make the outdoors more fun and accessible for everyone. Because your gear is more than just stuff, and we're more than just a store.
Our Core Values
A lot of companies say they care about customers, community, and the environment. We do too - but what sets us apart is how we actually live those values every day. A few principles that guide us:
- Couches before profit
- Economical vs. Extravagant
- Volunteer vs. Donate
- Proximity vs Productivity
- O.K. is not O.K.
- Doers vs. Degrees
- Creativity before efficiency
- Autonomy before rules
- YES! vs. NO
- Safety before speed
