Our friend who passed away three months ago, had a deep love for his city of Oceanside. When we…read morewent to his memorial this past Saturday, someone was wearing a shirt that was totally his style. I was informed that it came from here. I have driven by MadStrange dozens of times, if not hundreds and never knew what it was until recently. I noticed the font of the "Oceanside" logo above the doorway and felt my heart skip a beat. Walking in, was like walking into Steven's closet! I recognized numerous caps, shirts, hoodies and stickers. I teared up and nearly cried while shopping. I picked up some matching t-shirts for myself and my husband that Steven wore often, and a couple other things. If you are a tourist visiting Oceanside or you are proud to live here, I highly recommend this little store! *RIP, Sgt Steven D, aka SGTCROW, we love and miss you.* Pros: - nicely curated, local - friendly - reasonable pricing Cons: - not the best side of town - parking lot design sucks - tops are a bit on the long side (not great for shorter people)

I had a really great experience here today. Joseph helped me while I was looking for a few cool…read moreshirts for my dad's birthday, and he was incredibly kind and helpful. He immediately dropped what he was doing to assist me and offered thoughtful advice while I picked things out. As someone who used to work in the service industry, I really appreciate good customer service when I see it--and Joseph definitely hit the mark. Thanks for making the experience so easy and enjoyable!

This review only pertains to Brixton's online ordering and not a specific store. Do not use their…read moreonline ordering. Placed an order more than 5 business days ago and order has not even been fulfilled nor have I even received a tracking number. Placed online orders from other retail companies and at least received a tracking number within 3 business days. Item was meant to be a gift and was hoping to at least have item shipped last week. Made a complaint to customer service asking for an update because not shipped yet and their response admitted that this is outside their normal processing time. I then responded to them asking them for transparency as to what is causing the delay, but they have not yet responded. Other reviews/complaints on Better Business Bureau confirm same disappointment from other customers who made online purchases. Asked for a refund because taking too long to process, but kept telling me order has been fulfilled, but tracking indicates otherwise (nothing has changed as of 07/13) J BRIXTON Order #S######763 Jul 2, 2026 Waiting for details Then they tell me refunds can only allowed when product received. However, will I even receive the item? Some customers on BBB indicate they paid money but did not receive their item or never received their refund. Buyer beware.

I love their efforts to offer sustainable products, such as using crushed oyster shells to make some of their polos and using recycled polyester or coconut fiber in others.

My husband loved the shirt he got at the fundraiser and we have since been to their Oceanside store and replaced almost every other collared short sleeve shirt he has. Very comfortable and smart looking. Store feels posh, staff is super friendly. I'd recommend calling ahead of time, because their hours can be a bit variable.

I left several messages and nobody will respond. I don't live in California, so will not be able to go in person. Am sure that's what they assume, that we are all from out of state if we buy souvenirs and will pay the extra $$ they charge. Not right!! VISA bill should match the receipt!!! Bottom line!

Bought 4 months ago in March and i know I've seen one in store recently but when I finally had someone suggest I return it-I was told the store policy changed to 4 months and I was over and it was not returnable! I swear I never do this and got turned away at Nordstroms after making special trip there. Not even store credit. Told to sell on some app I never heard. I'm 67 and don't really want to add more frustration to this. Disappointed.

I was trying to find an item I had seen at the SM location and practically searched the whole store and couldn't find it. I also couldn't find any staff that could help. I finally made my way to the fitting room and asked the lady there for assistance, and she was of no help at all. So, besides lack of help, the selection they offer here is not as great as the other locations either. Overall, if you're looking for basic items, and know where they are located and won't need any help, this is decent otherwise, go to the other locations

I personally LOVE that everything is organized by color! My reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is just that the price points are a little higher then some other places I frequent, and they have a mix of thrift and new merch, but it's hard to tell which is which.
