Wow, I'm frankly surprised not to see this yelp thread busting at the seams with 4-star and 5-star…read morereviews from happy customers. Jackson's is seriously solid, and I'm a fan. Jackson's main floor, upstairs, is your typical boots/hats/dungaree selection that seems to cater towards locals looking for solid values, more than out-of-towners looking for fancy stuff. I mean, nobody comes to AVL to buy a Stetson, but some people round here like to wear them, and if you're one of those people, this is where you find that sort of stuff. That said, I took a Prada-wearing Italian politician to Jackson's one time, and she must have blown a thousand bucks on "authentic American" souvenirs to bring back to all her European friends. I started calling her "Spaghetti Western" after that. I thought that was pretty funny. Downstairs underneath the Jacksons retail salesfloor is a hidden basement with a working leather shop that makes stuff like the harnesses for carriages that take tourists around Central Park in NYC. Really high-end bespoke stuff. So yeah, maybe the desk clerk isn't all that chatty, but it seems disingenuous to say this shop isn't a local treasure, or to imply that they somehow aren't that good at the few things they do--things that are highly specialized, and hard to find anywhere else. That's my two cents, anyway: I think everyone should shop at Jacksons because they rock.

The layout is really navigable and if you're like me and you like to circle, it's really conducive to that.

Staff is friendly and helpful if you give them a yell! 5 stars, no notes.

I was researching vintage clothing stores in Asheville for my recent trip and this one came up in…read moremy searches. Located on Walnut off Broadway, it's a small shop that offers women's and men's clothing. There's a mix of eras under one roof and I noticed they have a good selection of men's clothing, which sometimes is a struggle for the guys who like vintage. When I went this time, there was a smaller selection of women's clothing, but most of the pieces seemed to be in fair condition. Spotted a vintage Dior jacket, but decided to not grab it. I'd guess that most of the clothing at the time that I went was from the 1970s-now. Mostly I saw tops, tees, and jackets, along with vintage denim. Parking options include street parking and parking lots where you pay by the hour. I went with the latter as it was more cost effective when I compiled my list of shops to visit in the same area. I recommend going that route because most of the shops are on the main streets and it's easy to reach them by walking.

To me every fossil is one of a kind, so seeing some of the prices for them being so low was insane too! I held a lot in my hands I'm not sure if they changed their rules but another review stated you couldn't hold things. You're definitely allowed to it's just a "you break it you buy it" deal and that's stated everywhere. We asked why we couldn't take pictures of the ocean jasper and they were very open with the reason and it's definitely fair! Ask them yourselves, it's an interesting story. Yeah there are many fossils out there but none exactly like another so as low 5$ you can walk out with a one of a kind piece of history! I got a few little cheaper fossils that were awesome gifts, but I got a giant megalodon tooth and I'm blown away it's an amazing store. I will tell anyone I know passing through NC Asheville or near to DEFINITELY not miss out on seeing what they have to offer.
