Eastern Mountain Sports has announced the grand opening of its Princeton, N.J., store now with an exterior entrance at the MarketFair Mall. 

For the first time, the store will have a bike shop, childrens department, including apparel and accessories, and kayak and paddleboard rentals. The 13,325 square-foot store has in-store experts providing personalized fitting for footwear, backpacks, paddle sports and car racks, a road running footwear collection and an expanded paddle sports department.

This expanded store enables Eastern Mountain Sports to provide outdoor enthusiasts and every member of their family with more choices for outdoor pursuits, said Mark Walsh, CEO, Vestis Retail Group. We have a wide range of gear, footwear and apparel for the weekend warrior as well as the core outdoor adventurer. For those considering outdoor activities for the first time, our in-store experts give advice and, most importantly, make sure that our gear, apparel and footwear fit properly. Not only is the Princeton staff devoted to its customers, but also, they are part of the local, active community. We look forward to introducing even more Princeton-area consumers to our brand.
