They refused to return or exchange a pair of unworn $200 shoes, despite them being in brand new condition. Customer service and loyalty should matter, especially for long-time customers. To make matters worse, the young lady working there consistently has a poor attitude every time we come in, which only added to the frustration of this experience. Unfortunately, because of how this situation was handled, I will not be returning to any of the five stores they own in Carlsbad.

The vibe is so hip and this store's edge was much needed in the area! Everything from the music to the artwork on the walls .. I give the ambience an A+. They have the coolest products & rare finds in street wear. They carry a variety of shoes and apparel ranging from Jordans to Supreme to the Anti -Social Club and more. Mike and Mathryn have the best energy - I literally will come to support anytime I can. It's people like them that build strong community foundation! If your looking to express yourself through fashion and like to support local businesses than this is the place for you!

However, you will find something and she will order a different color etc...if she can. That's what she did for me. :) Pay attention to the store hours too as they are not open long days.

Customer service a disappointment at Shoe Palace in Carlsbad mall. We've been frequent customers of…read moreour local Shoe Palace. Recently, we purchased basketball shoes for my son. They were NikeKD. My son got blisters on top of his foot from them after wearing a couple times. When we brought them back to request a credit or refund we were informed they were "too worn" by their manager Sal. We had bought them two weeks before. I know Nike would stand behind their product if it caused harm to the customer. I am now taking it up with Nike since Shoe palace won't do anything about it. Just disappointing. I will no longer return here to shop since I know they don't care about customer service. We have never had an issue like this before with a product from shoe palace. I have learned they will not stand behind the products they sell with a fit warranty. Note to consumers: Buy direct from Nike where they stand behind their product, worn or not, for 60 days. It's just not worth it when you spend over $100 on shoes. Lesson learned and unfortunately the manager, Sal, did not make any efforts to try and retain us as customers.

It has now been 5 years since my purchase in store. I am extremely disappointed in this business'…read morecustomer service. I initially signed up in 2020 and got an email today saying that my VIP membership successfully renewed. Say what? That was canceled before the year was up. Then I find out from speaking to customer service that my card has been charged every year since then (and I had to specifically ask this question as they tried to divulge the response). I was notified a few days before my credit card company of suspicious activity. Then I get this email. So they've been charging my card for 5 years without my authorization. My advice to you all is double, triple, quadruple check that your membership is canceled and no longer active. I would also remove any credit cards on file with this company. Be weary if you sign up for VIP membership. Buyer beware!

One star. Walk into…read morethe Nike Factory Store expecting outlet deals, not a scavenger hunt with fine print. Big bold signs screaming "30% OFF," racks full of mixed items, and then you find out the discount only applies to a small print "fleece only". Meanwhile, similar-looking activewear is sitting right there in the same rack like it belongs. I'll own my part, I didn't see the "fleece only" note. That's on me. But when you've got 20+ pieces of non-sale items sitting in the middle of a rack clearly marked for a discount, that's just bad practice. Feels less like shopping and more like a setup. First asked for clarification about how discounts work. Then a price check. After the sale I walked over to confirm sign. Someone asked me "can J help you", I Asked if this is how they normally do things? And got a casual "yeah" and a shrug. No effort to make it right, no attempt to meet halfway. Just a quick apology and move on. I've worked customer service. If something ends up on a sale rack, you own it. You fix it. Or at least try. This just felt like bait and switch with zero accountability.

They do offer foot measurements and have you walk on a device that measures where your foot has the most pressure during steps, which I thought was really cool. They also send you the report automatically and don't try to upsell you on insoles (sorry road runner). Selection: they have a pretty large collection of shoes! If they don't have the color you want, they are more than happy to order it in for you. Value: what sold me was that they are selling you the shoe for the same if not near the same price as what it would cost online. But without the forced membership and shipping fee. I'll whole heartedly recommend this store to anyone interested in running!
