Insider Tip
Have dead batteries, old tennis balls, retired bike parts, worn out running shoes, or empty propane canisters you’ve been meaning to recycle? Take them to Sports Basement. And if you need to get some shopping done with the little ones in tow, the store has a kids’ play area to help make it easier for parents to browse.
Supporting Outdoor Adventure in the Presidio
Sports Basement opened in the Presidio in 2003 in the old U.S. Army commissary where soldiers once bought groceries. You’ll still see signs for the “Bakery” and “Fish” departments, an homage to the park’s past.
In the Middle of the Outdoor Action
Located on the Bay Trail SF not far from Crissy Field East Beach and right next to Presidio Tunnel Tops, it’s easy to drop into Sports Basement for a snack bar, a Frisbee, or even a jacket when the fog rolls in.
