Um...WHOA?! I've…read moreheard about this store from friends before, but thought it was just a fancy menswear store. Well boy, was I wrong. I stopped in a few days before Christmas, and I actually had a few things yet I wanted to get my grandpa, so this worked out great. At the entrance - and throughout the store - I found free hot coffee, tea, refreshments, cookies, and treats. Maybe it's just a holiday thing but I loved the hospitality. The space is HUGE - so much more than clothes! I had no idea. They have: - books and coffee table books - a whole room dedicated to perfume/cologne and scents - a whole area for cocktail-related gifts - home decor, tableware, and interior decor items - kitschy smaller giftables that were organized by theme (work/office, hosting, etc.) - menswear and womenswear - jewelry - candles - and so much more! I genuinely believe you can walk in here and be sure to find something for anyone on your gifting list. The service was incredible: lots of welcomes and greetings, and staff there to help you if you need it. Oh, they even have a room you can reserve while shopping?! FANCY!

You're also provided complimentary drinks while browsing the store. If the main floor doesn't meet your needs don't fret! Just go upstairs and there's an entire room of racks of sale items to check out which include items from previous seasons. Parking is also free behind the building. A piece of information I learned is not all items in store are placed online depending on the contract they have with the brand where brands may not allow them to sell pieces online, so your best bet if you're looking for something in particular would be to pop into the store.

We walked in the door, to a shop devoid of any other customers, and then were completely ignored by 2 salespeople who were obviously in a personal conversation about something more important than us. I have worked retail for over 10 years and know the importance of professionalism and good customer service and it starts with the basics. Needless to say, our wallets never left our pockets. We marched over to Martin Fitzpatrick and were blown away by not only their product, but the kindness and politeness given to us by their staff

If my fiance were less of a man-beast (he's too tall for most clothing in general), if I physically brought him here and if I hid all the price tags, I like to think he'd shop here too. (What can I say? My fiance is a classy man who describes his look as "artfully disheveled." We all have our strengths.) In addition the the mostly American-made and Nordic clothing, they have some fun accessories for biking (leather 6-pack holder that I got my fiance for his birthday one year), camping (HOODED WALKING SLEEPING BAG SUIT?!?!) and some great home decor items like a woolen badger face pillow that I want in my house really badly. Also, the Faribault Woolen Mills blankets. Gimme. Dem. Blankets.

But now "Things Done Changed." (Biggie reference.) Within the last couple years, a handful of new spots have opened up in Minneapolis alone! Phenom is refreshing with its dope two room setup, wooden floors, and tees that hang from an automated and revolving rack above. (Like what drycleaners have.) They also carry a small selection of sneaker classics like Nike Air Maxes, Jordans, and New Balances (the non-Grandpa kind), some interesting caps (both snapback and fitted), and original sweatshirts I've never really seen online. I'm not really a fan of their selection, but I can see how some peeps dig it. Aside from the gear, the customer service could be better. I saw one Nike Air Max and got a staff member to get it in my size. I found that it didn't fit and tried chatting with him a bit. He seemed disinterested in trying to sell me anything and left to talk to the shorty at the front of the store. At other boutiques, the staff usually tries to hustle me. Kinda surprised. Again, I love Phenom's dope space and can appreciate their gear, but the customer service could be better.

Much love for this shop and always stop in to see their new gear whenever I'm in the area. Pricy for some of these products because of their brands, but it's well worth the pricepoint if you are savvy in the streetwear game and understand what you're actually looking at! o.O

Now I get that he's in business selling suits and not just taking measurements so I was prepared to pay him a little cash for the trouble and I wanted to see the shop too. Unfortunately, we never got to that point. When I asked if he'd take my measurements, he looked me up and down, and then very curtly said "No" and went back to what he was doing. Sorry Marty, but you made me feel utterly worthless. Good luck with your store.

Unfortunately, I didn't realize until after 30 day return window that these shoes smell- BADLY. I do not have smelly feet. These are the only pair of shoes that I have ever owned that smell. I have followed the manufacturer's guidelines and washed them accordingly. NOTHING, I mean NOTHING can totally get rid of the smell. It's a shame because the shoes are very comfortable and supportive.

I was going to Pacifier to get a gift for my son, but then I stopped into Allbirds on a curious whim, and left with a gift for myself. I honestly had never heard of Allbirds before I stumbled in here. The staff was welcoming, as I browsed their displays. I learned that they're a minimalist New Zealand company dedicated to reversing climate change with sustainable functional apparel (mostly shoes). Into it! I love how each product is marked with its carbon footprint and list of renewable materials. There are about half a dozen different shoes, and I think they were all $98 and unisex. Yes, pricey, but worth the sustainable quality (also, helps that I haven't bought new shoes in years). I tried on the Wool Loungers and was in heaven. They're easy to slip on, the soles are so comfy, and they design is minimal and clean. And they're machine-washable!! Note: This style only comes in full sizes and run small. I sized up from 7 to 8. I've only worn them a few days but so far I love them. So comfortable! Each Allbirds location has a custom shoelace, and ours is Boundary Waters Blue. You get a free pair with each purchase!

I'll definitely keep coming back for any shoes that I'm looking for.

There is a try-on area and a three-sided mirror, with someone trying on a beret - just peak vintage shop vibes.

Don't expect thrifting prices here - this is a higher end, curated vintage shop and prices reflect that. If you're a lover of all things vintage, you've gotta come check this out!
