Searching couple specific brands so decided to toggle “hide out of stock” items in order to make the list more manageable (& they’re OUT OF STOCK anyway!). Even after sorting various ways, out of stock items are STILL being shown. INCLUDES OUT OF STOCK — ONLINE, SET +NEARBY STORES, ALL OF THE SIZES + ALL OF THE COLORS. ❌ Also tried on the website, same thing. Even more inconvenient than the list of thousands of items that came up—that also include items by OTHER brands than your selection BUT apparently Academy thinks you won’t notice (?)—is that you decide you want to purchase so click that item only to discover it’s out of stock when the item comes up. INCLUDES OUT OF STOCK — ONLINE, IN STORE, ALL OF THE SIZES (even the seldom ordered XXXS or XXXXL are out of stock & some items only have 1 size listed AT ALL-that’s out of stock) and yep, ALL OF THE COLORS. No all of the items didn’t JUST miraculously sell out when I began the search, as that would be HUNDREDS of items over 10 + searches within the Academy app AND main website, over a course of several weeks. So no. **The conclusion—too little time for this nonsense when alternate stores do not have this same issue.**
