Sporting Goods
Larry's Sports is an independent sporting goods store in Pemberton providing practical gear and local expertise for North Shore outdoor activities.
Larry's Sports serves the Pemberton neighbourhood as a sporting goods store, and its web address, myhockeystore.com, points to hockey equipment as a central part of what it carries, setting it apart from a general shop that spreads its floor space evenly across many activities. Much of Pemberton is residential rather than commercial, and a specialty store located there generally works as a neighbourhood alternative to driving into Vancouver, or to one of the larger chains elsewhere in Metro Vancouver, for the same gear.
A store built around hockey equipment typically needs to stock items that a general sporting goods retailer might carry only a thin selection of: skates that need proper fitting, sticks across a range of flexes and lengths, and protective gear sized for players from young beginners through adults. That kind of focus usually means staff who can size skates correctly and answer detailed equipment questions in a way a big box sales floor rarely matches. For North Shore families with kids in minor hockey, or adults playing in local recreational leagues, having that kind of specialty shop close to home in Pemberton cuts out the need to travel further for a proper fitting or for gear that needs replacing partway through a season.
Stock on individual items can run low as the season picks up, which makes a call to Larry's Sports at (236) 153-3699 a reasonable step before making a trip out. Its page at https://myhockeystore.com/ is another way to check what is currently available. Confirming ahead of time saves a wasted stop when a single piece of gear is the entire reason for going.
