Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures”, outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. The Company measures its deferred compensation plan assets held in trust at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 inputs. Such assets consist of investments in various mutual funds made by eligible individuals as part of the Company’s deferred compensation plans, as discussed in Note 13–Retirement Savings Plans. As of February 1, 2020 and February 2, 2019, the fair value of the Company’s deferred compensation plans were $99.7 million and $77.3 million, respectively, as determined by quoted prices in active markets. The Company’s policy for recognition of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize any transfer at the end of the fiscal quarter in which the determination to transfer was made. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain other liabilities approximated their book values due to the short-term nature of these instruments at both February 1, 2020 and February 2, 2019. Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis may include property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets, equity and other assets, such as inventory. The Company determines the fair values of these assets using Level 3 inputs. The Company has conducted a strategic review of its hunt business, including Field & Stream. In connection with the review, the Company removed hunt category merchandise from approximately 135 DICK’S Sporting Goods stores through the end of fiscal 2019 and reallocated the space in these stores to a localized assortment. The Company plans to remove the hunt department from approximately 440 additional DICK’S Sporting Goods stores in fiscal 2020, which resulted in restructuring charges of $57.7 million (collectively “the hunt restructuring”). The restructuring charges included $35.7 million of non-cash impairments of a trademark and store assets, a $13.1 million write-down of hunt inventory and an $8.9 million charge related to our exit from eight Field & Stream stores, which were subleased to Sportsman’s Warehouse, Inc.
