Buyer BEWARE!! I inquired about a dress shirt that they have. I was willing to buy all the colors…read morethey have if they had my size. Through out a 10 year span I have purchased over 40+ Marquis dress shirt and I am familiar with the MSRP price and the mark up. It ranges from $27-$30 and that's already with a 60% mark up factored in. The lady was trying to rip me off when she saw I was willing to buy. She was brought out 4 shirts and stated she had more colors in the back. I inquired about the price because the dress shirts had no price sticker/tag on them. She stated $50. I showed her the price from 3 competitors and Amazon and said I was willing to pay $40 ( Tax included ) since i was already there and she said no. I know it's a mom n pop shop and they are trying to make a profit and I support independently owned/ small businesses. I understand maybe a $5-$7 mark up but $20? That's insane. Your making people not want to shop at stores like yours and you wonder why you don't have business. So before you buy at this store check the prices online. I hate to say it.

I had no idea buying a hat could be this fun…read more I drove up to the San Francisco Hat Company thinking I'd browse a few styles and maybe grab something cute. What I didn't expect was to walk into an actual working hat factory -- the kind of place where the magic literally happens. These aren't just hats on a shelf; this is where they're designed, made, and sent out into the world. It's like stepping into a behind-the-scenes fashion studio, minus the pretense and with way more charm. The atmosphere is effortlessly cool -- industrial meets boutique -- and the owners? Absolutely lovely. Kind, helpful, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They helped me find the perfect hat and then let me customize the band with all these amazing options. It felt like couture for your head, but way more fun. This is hands-down one of the most unique shopping experiences I've ever had in the Bay Area. If you're even thinking about a hat -- go. If you're not thinking about a hat -- go anyway. You'll probably leave with one.

How could you not love Pam?…read more She and her husband are the sweetest and they are always willing to help you look beautiful when you're in a pinch for something quick and fabulous. Even when the owner of the TWO stores around the corner tried to give me a dirty suit at a discounted price just so I wouldn't go to Pam's, I still bought my suit with Pam anyway just because of the care and the service she provided to me. Not to mention that the other owner told me before I left to go look at Pam's Imports: "You won't be able to afford her prices, you'll be back." Now mind you, it was a stretch from what I wanted to pay, but I had to ensure that I walked past her store with TWO bags from Pam's just to let you know "Yes I can afford it and I will buy it from someone else other than YOU!" Thank you Pam for your caring and considerate attitude and staff. And for letting me try on hats until I was tired...

I was gifting my wife on our wedding day a North Face jacket and got it embroidered "Mrs. Tolentino" on the back. It's the wife's favorite jacket! Herb was super friendly.

I definitely would go back and get more things made by him! Thanks again Herb!

I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get anything in my budget and on time. But Brand Marinade came through! I contacted 10+ vendors on Yelp across the Bay Area and I was so lucky to find a vendor locally in San Leandro. To have something so close by, good on price and willing to work with times and fast quotes was a godsend! They even redid my png artwork to AI with a custom font. Final product was perfect and as expected. Couldn't be happier!

The jumpsuits I have purchased here are KILLER! As one of the post mentioned most of the clothing is club wear, nothing really to wear to work (however I did get a beautiful pleated skirt off the $10 rack). But to look fabulous for a Friday night date or sassy for a Sunday brunch; get on down there. I like to address a couple of things mentioned in the post. Ive never had to take anything to be repaired. Ive never seen anything they had at another boutique in the area (and there are few others good ones in the area walking distance). Far as pricing I feel as though within budget. I am not into having GUCCI, CHANEL or any other label plastered across my chest I am not a walking billboard. When I walk in I feel like family, the sales associate always mentions other items that I might like and if they have it in my size. I believe its the owner gives me a straight answer as to if she's going to get more of the item that I am interested in, or ain't no more. Overall, gurl you need to the store and get you a few things to put in your arsenal of clothing. Happy Shopping
