I've gotten a pair of nice denim here from Warehouse as well as fatigue pants from Orslow. Both times, the staff was on point with helping me nail the sizing.

We came for jeans for my partner…read moreand we left with the perfect pair -- as well as getting all my questions about denim answered. Overall, the trip was one of the better shopping experiences I have had. They know their stuff and pack a lot of selection in a relatively small store. The one comment I have that doesn't have to do at all with the customer service (which was top-notch) is that the website makes it look like there are fewer options in the store than you actually have (because of what it says is "unavailable for pick up"). So, I'm extra happy we live nearby and made our way in to look.

The store is spacious and clean. Parking is a pain as it is located downtown. I love the shirt display as soon as you enter. In the back they have a dressing room for your convenience and also gear from other local artists. The young man who helped us provided great service and was knowledgeable about the product. The telephone booth is super cute to take photos. The prices are a little steep, but you really can't find a shop like this that has the bay gear and quality. I can't wait to wear my sweatshirt!

This store used to be a great place for community as well as street wear. I've been a customer for…read morea while but as of late, I fear customers have been severely taken advantage of. I ordered a sweatsuit from here in March of 2023 for $175 and still have yet to receive a product nor a refund (of which I requested on 5-7 different occasions) from the owner of the company who not only ghosted for months but also recently reached out to hint that the issue would be resolved & yet still has not refunded me. I would steer clear of monetarily supporting this brand moving forward. I absolutely love supporting small businesses but in no way shape or form will I ever condone taking advantage of customers while simultaneously using profits to support your own personal lifestyle.

That was, until I stopped into Maple Street. The owner and staff are INCREDIBLY knowledgeable about their stock and how to solve common problems about fit that femme bodies run into with jeans. I've never shopped at such an uplifting, body-positive space before-- the attitude the entire time they helped me find my perfect pair was never that my body was the problem, the jeans just weren't the right cut for what I wanted! If you're looking for a quality pair of jeans picked out with the help of experts, look no further.
