Mickey's Surplus Store

Mickey's Surplus Store in Kansas City, KS, has quickly become a local favorite, and for good reason. Family-owned since 1992, this place brings a genuine charm that's often missing from major retail chains. With a solid rating of 4.6 out of 5 from over 1,150 reviews, customers rave about the variety and quality of products available. From military surplus gear to vintage military artifacts, there's a treasure trove waiting to be explored.

As Danny Royse pointed out, "This is an old time army Navy store not a bunch of Chinese crap…They have absolutely everything you would expect to find in a real army navy store and their prices are great." It’s this authentic approach that keeps shoppers coming back week after week. The new inventory every Tuesday adds an element of surprise, making each visit feel like a mini-adventure.

However, some reviews highlight a recurring concern regarding staff knowledge. Corey Landry noted that while Mickey’s has great products, “the staff aren’t the most knowledgeable with the surplus and history side of things.” This may prove frustrating for those who are looking for detailed insights into certain items.

Despite this minor setback, Mickey's shines in its friendly service and the wide range of clothing options, as Kaycee Gavin discovered when she found adorable accessories like a faux leather fanny pack. With plenty of camping gear and tactical supplies available, it's clear that Mickey's Surplus Store has something for everyone.
