    Selection is fire. Haven't been to the lab in a minute and this store was cool. Nostalgic

    Again, get outta here ya negative Yelp reviewers. Some people feel so compelled to leave a Yelp review to complain but don't have the courage to bring up the issue to management. Cmon on now. The last ten times I've been to Blends, I was always greeted warmly and taken care of. Didn't buy anything on some days, and still received top notch service. For those that write low rating for shoe stores, please find another lane. Or address your concerns to management. I think it says more about these people who whine about stores like Blends. Blends is hands down one of the best sneaker stores around, and the service is second to none! I was surprised to see some unfavorable reviews about the service, but after my many visits, I'm convinced some people are hyper needy. The moment I walked in, the staff greeted me with a friendly hello and were eager to help. Their knowledge of the products is impressive, and they genuinely care about finding the right fit for their customers. The selection at Blends is fantastic, with a great mix of classic kicks and the latest drops. Solomon. ASICS. Brain Dead. Stussy. Hoka. The store is well-organized, making it easy to find what you're looking for, whether it's something stylish or something more performance-oriented. What really stood out to me was how patient and attentive the staff were. They didn't rush me or make me feel like just another customer. Instead, they made sure I was 100% happy with my purchase. It's rare to find that level of service these days, especially in a busy store like this. If you're into sneakers and appreciate great customer service, Blends is the place to go. Don't let a few misguided reviews keep you from experiencing this gem of a store.

    I used to go the store in Beverly Hills. This spot is dope, clean minimal. I like the music they play here it's right next to a speakeasy next door. One of the best shoe selections around oc

    Amazing Service, a great selection of clothes and apparel. Will be coming back regulary

    Orange County doesn't have the greatest sneaker boutiques; however, sometimes you find a diamond in the sand.

    If I could give this place a 0 stars, I 1000% WOULD. This was my first time coming to this…read morelocation, buying my son a pair of shoes for school. The 2 who worked here did not greet us and had zero enthusiasm!!! my personal opinion is they needa go ahead get rid of the store.. or hiring a more enthusiastic team!

    I bought a pair of Converse high top sneakers and the Soul came unglued from the upper rubber base…read more She had them for about 3 months and I figured they would stand behind them because they were defective . They were quick to tell me they'd only warranty shoes for 30 days after that you own the junk . 30 days may be reasonable for shoes that have been abused by their owners however when there's a defect in the material I don't think 30 days applies . In my entire life I have never had a pair of sneakers of any brand come separated between the soul and the rubber outer band that secures the upper to the soul . There are no signs in the store that say 30 days warranty only. I asked him where is the signage that says warranty ends in 30 days and she said it's on my receipt . I told her that's a hell of a thing to give me a receipt with a notice that my warranty is only 30 days after the fact that I've already purchased the shoes . They should let me know that right up front that we're not going to warranties shoes for quality and workmanship after 30 days . Probably because they are using the cheapest junk shoes that they can find . I would suggest that the shoes that they sold me were probably seconds .

I only wanted one. Got this pair for $80 but with the Bogo had it for $60 each The customer service was excellent. They were very helpful and wanted to always ask that my needs for being met. Excellent service people.

They arrived a few days later, from DSW Return Center. The shoes were dirty at the bottom and looked like the have been worn and returned. Perhaps, they just came from the Return Center? Called DSW to notify them. Was told to drop those two pairs at the nearest store and they ordered (supposedly two fresh pairs) from the warehouse. Well, few days later, the replacement shoes came. Exactly the same as last two. They came from the Return Center again, and looked as they've been worn and returned. Took them to this DSW CM location to return. Got excellent service by Rene. Like the associates at the other store location, he agreed that the shoes appeared to have been worn. Rene was very pleasant and courteous. Indeed, DSW always has great customer service. The warehouse, however, needs to be more careful and pay attention to what they send customers. Can't send customers used/worn shoes! Not good. And DSW should not put the returned shoes back in stock and mix them in with new shoes to ship to customers. In-store Customer service: 6/5 Shipping/warehouse: 1/5.

    I walked into this store nearly in tears because I could barely walk. I had gotten to the point…read morewhere I was literally going down the stairs at home on my butt, and my "new normal" had become walking down the stairs backwards. I have plantar fasciitis and bone spurs in both feet, and because I didn't have the proper shoes or inserts, I was compensating in all the wrong ways -- pulling muscles here, straining muscles there -- until eventually the pain was everywhere and completely overwhelming. Honestly, I felt defeated and scared. I truly thought something more serious had to be wrong because the pain had become so severe. The moment I walked into the store, NAOMI greeted me with a smile, and as crazy as it sounds, I immediately felt this sense of relief -- like maybe I was finally going to be okay. She listened to everything I explained, was incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping me. After using the foot scan machine and seeing the results, she picked out several pairs of shoes and arch supports for me to try. Then she went above and beyond by sitting down and helping put the shoes on for me. In that moment, feeling cared for and supported meant everything because I was truly struggling physically and emotionally. I decided to wait a full week before writing this review so I could honestly speak on the results -- and WOW. Absolute game changer. LIFE changer. I'm an Assistant General Manager at a very busy, fast-paced hotel, so being on my feet constantly is part of my everyday life. A week later, I can genuinely say I feel like a different person. The customer service here is TOP NOTCH, and Naomi is an absolute gem!!! Thank you so much!!!! This will be the only place I buy shoes from moving forward. Thank you for changing my life more than you probably even realize. ~ Kristina

For the longest time I've had hit and miss instances with shoes. I've ended up with ingrown nails that required surgery. I've ended up in even more pain than I probably should be in. Enter my friend reminding me that foot analysis places exist and to "treat myself." I made a free appointment online and Cheri had me stand on a scanner of sorts. First thing that caught me off guard was I'm not a size 7 in everything... I'm an 8 (oops). Second was learning I pronate which makes sense why my ankles need so much support (esp with my health issues). Everything from start to finish was a breeze. Cheri set me up with some Hoka Gaviotas as well as some cute boot/shoe hybrids that already have insoles inside. With my Hokas, Cheri explained I needed to break-in/get used to my new insoles with a 2,4,6 hr rule and now I'm in love with them. Please don't hesitate to treat yourself as well if you find yourself in my position.
