He brought to me. Did not try on but purchased. After a few days, my afflicted foot was swollen and painful. I checked the size and it was 7. Not the 7.5 he said he brought me. I tried returning to the store to get my original 7.5 requested size but refused. Because I didn't have the box.

The store is small with a few teams and player jerseys mixed in with some rando ones. They will miss the mark completely or have what you want. No in between. However, for my Friday evening (20 mins before closing) shopping excursion they had what I needed. My son wanted a Matt Chapman Jersey and nothing else would work. We all walked in and one of the two associates (younger guy) greeted us after he finished helping with another guest. The manager or more senior employee just stared at the people in the store and worked around the cashier. The younger guy was courteous and helpful. If he didn't know the answer he asked the more senior employee. He helped us locate what we needed and thanked us for coming in.

My mans and I came in and we literally grabbed a pile of stuff for him to try on, obviously with intent to purchase, and none of the male staff all of whom were wearing Birkenstock clogs lol offered to help. Like why? Why do you stand there in a circle just chatting amongst yourselves when you have one main job and that is to help guests? The only stars worth giving is to the nice older Filipina lady who actually showed me around the womens section as I was look it for shorts for traveling. There was one other girl who was on the bigger end when I asked for a specific style and size for the men's shorts she literally just pointed to the far from where we were in the dressing room. You work for an athletic wear store please exert some energy and endurance and walk patrons over to the stuff they're looking for because there's many racks and no one knows what you're pointing at from afar. Disappointed in these lazy young people they hire. Please hire more mature people.

We went to return the items bought from online.I am writing to express my deep concern and outrage…read moreregarding a profoundly disturbing experience I had at your Columbia store located at Great Mall in Milpitas, CA. What should have been a routine return of a few online-purchased items quickly escalated into a humiliating, disrespectful, and frankly alarming incident that has left a lasting negative impression of the Columbia brand. Upon arriving at the store to process the return, the cashier was immediately rude and dismissive. Rather than assisting us courteously, he treated me with suspicion and hostility, as though I were attempting something fraudulent. Without offering any explanation, he called over additional staff to inspect the return -- making me feel publicly scrutinized and accused, without cause. The situation worsened dramatically when the store manager, who identified himself as Donovan, got involved. His behavior was shockingly unprofessional and disrespectful. When we asked for clarification about why we were being treated so poorly, he claimed--incorrectly--that we were attempting to return more than 10 items, which was simply not true. He then demanded to inspect my phone to verify the credit card used for the online purchase. While I cooperated in good faith to resolve the situation, he proceeded to browse through private sections of my phone, including my account information and unrelated order history, without my permission. When I objected to this blatant invasion of privacy, his response was dismissive and increasingly hostile. When I rightfully asked for an apology for the incorrect accusation and invasive behavior, he escalated the situation further by threatening to call mall security to remove us from the store, effectively weaponizing his position rather than resolving the matter professionally. He also declared that he could refuse service at will, regardless of company policy or customer rights. He then flatly denied the return without legitimate grounds. This incident was not only humiliating and disrespectful -- it was a violation of basic customer rights and personal privacy. We have never been treated in such an aggressive and unethical manner by any retail staff in our lives. The conduct displayed by both the cashier and the manager was hostile, unprofessional, and deeply damaging to the Columbia brand. We have filed a formal complaint with Columbia's corporate office (Case #000552987), but I feel it is important to stress the severity of this matter. If this is how customers are treated for simply making a return, I can no longer in good conscience support or recommend Columbia products.

For Kris (Chris) - store manager and customers,…read more I had an issue when staff rejected to do separate receipt for purchase and return. First, I came to the store because I want to do return. At the same time, I found other item that I wanted to purchase. Then, I asked the staff to do return and purchase separately. It seemed like she asked the manager some questions regarding the return. Next, she did the return and purchase in one receipt. Done, I left the store. A week later, I changed my mind and wanted to return 1 item (on that same return and purchase receipt) and noticed only store manager can authorized the refund. He came to the counter and got explained from his staff about I was using store credit to purchase. He started giving me hard time. He did not deliever a professional customer service skill nicely nor problem solver to customer. He was yelling at me and asked "Do You Know What Are You Talking About" in front of lot of other customers. I tried to explain the confusion of returning and purchasing on same receipt using store credit. He ignored what I was trying to explain. He kept underlying item on the receipt and asking me lot of questions. He gave me the feeling that he looked down on me cause I am Asian while he is white. I felt that I got discriminated by him. To store manager, I come to purchase, and I am not begging for anything. Please, act as an adult and be professional to suite your title. To Columbia: great products, but bad managing staff crew.

When it was my turn, the cashier helped me with my jacket exchange first. It was quick and seamless, and the order for the new size was placed within minutes. For the hemming, she explained the process and told me to go to the dressing room, and someone would help me there. The hemming process was easy. I tried on the pants and the fitting room person helped with pinning the pants to the length I wanted. After that she explained that I would get an email when my pants were ready for pickup. Come the day of pick up, I found a staff member and was able to try on my newly altered pants. It fits well, and you can't really tell that the pants have been altered! Parking was easy, since I went on a random weekday. I would return back to this Lululemon location to shop and get any future hemming done!

I was already near Santana Row and decided to give it a try, and wow... am I glad I did. The entire experience was fast, seamless, and genuinely impressive. The staff was friendly and welcoming as always, and Palyn in the fitting area was especially wonderful -- efficient, warm, and detail-oriented. She had me try on the pants, pinned them perfectly, entered my info, and I was out the door in minutes. I even received my confirmation email before leaving the store. From parking my car to walking back to it: under 20 minutes. Free alterations, zero hassle, excellent service -- this is convenience and customer care done right. I'll absolutely be shopping here even more (sorry, beloved seamstress ).
