I LOVE Uncle Sam’s. I make it a priority to visit every time I come into Fayetteville. There’s great selection, knowledgeable staff, everyone is very approachable. The environment is so welcoming and they’re always playing awesome music.

Amazing shop. Very surprised at the quality of merchandise here. Having worked in retail for over 10 years their quality was beyond what Walmart has to offer.The associate working here was a wealth of knowledge. He answered all my questions.

Great selection of gear, and all at good prices. I believe they are the least expensive in the area. The staff kicks butt - one time I needed a -10 rated sleeping bag. They had a display model on the wall, but were out of the actual product. The girl helping me offered to sell me the display model at a nice discount! I still use that sleeping bag to this day. I love this place!

Great selection of outdoor gear. I really like their collection of Outdoor Research products. They also have some really good flannel in the fall/winter. However, most of their products are marked at retail price so don’t go here if you’re set on getting a good deal.

Not much of a selection of clothing and accessories. I looked around and got a couple of can coolers, no boot blouses or pants or shorts I wanted, or didn't have my size medium, I assume, is hard to find 😅

Staff on Saturday morning consisted of two courteous girls. A nice selection of army surplus items, camping and hiking gear. Large fitting rooms, and good atmosphere. A weekend destination for me and my 12yo son.

Items are too expensive. Over the years, the number of military items have been decreased. I still make purchases because if I need it quick it's still faster than ordering. The employees are friendly and helpful. If you are a veteran you get a discount.

Well, Unfortunately this location didn't have a pair of camouflage pants with my favorite pattern brand new and well fitted.

I've been coming here since the early 90s and this place is still as amazing as always. The people that run it are great, personable, and so helpful. This has been my go to for outdoor gear for nearly 30 years and hope they are open many years to come!

Used to be a very great place for surplus and used to have insanely good prices, now they’ve dropped off and are very very over priced on surplus, but they overall are still a pretty good place to get items for survival.

Been shopping here off and on for decades ever since the old store on Dickson Street as a teen.

I've been a customer for several years. They are carry a wide range of camping and climbing / caving equipment. Their staff is knowledgeable and accommodating. Prices are the most interesting competitive in the area. The carry military surplus as well.

You get what you pay for. If you are serious about your outdoor experience, don't go to a chain. These people know their stuff, and the gear here is top notch. If you want cheap stuff that may not serve you the duration of a single campout, this is not your place. But if you want something you can count on for more than just one season, you are going to love it in here.

Incredible staff! Very knowledgeable about the outdoors and everything you need for camping, hiking etc. I love the apparel too and they have a great Kavu bag selection!

Got my first pair of army camo here when I was 7 (35yrs ago). Owners change but the store continues to impress. Service and selection are shining stars at this wonderful Fayetteville Icon

Hate to give a lower rating for lack of sizes. The store has great prices and friendly staff. Wasnt as I expected. You'll see more camping gears rather than military surplus.

If you're looking for gear that's actually tested and true, check them out. These guys have figured out what works for NW Arkansas. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. I never feel rushed just looking around. The military surplus stuff is fun to look at, too.

Many thanks to Alyson Arnold and her team at Uncle Sam’s in Fayetteville for hooking up my son and his service dog Jasmine with some amazing new Ruffwear working gear. This new gear will make them as a team work better and easier. If you are in need of anything camping, or outdoor related make them your only source!

This was my first time at Uncle Sam's Safari Outfitters. I was impressed with the selection of camping gear, and the prices were much better than I thought they would be. I'm definitely going back!

Good selection of hiking clothes and mountain climbing gear, but the military surplus is expensive and not worth wasting your time. Much of it is either not actual surplus and is just made for consumers or it is real surplus and over priced.

I absolutely love this store. I came in here with my dad as a kid. Army surplus, rock climbing, hiking, camping, they have, or can get what you need.

I love Uncle Sam's. The prices are good, and the staff is super friendly and helpful. I shop here for all of my outdoor gear. 10/10 would shop again ;)

Cool little store. It is one of the last military surplus places that I know of. It might be the last one in the area. They also do outdoor clothing and camping supplies. MREs and all kinds of good stuff for the outdoor oriented individual.
