So when I had a friend mention Mago, I knew it was time to pop in. Situated in the massive shopping complex at Traverse Mountain (the one with Harmons) it's just a little pocket of outdoor vibe. The space is clean and flanked with racks on one side, and shelves on the other, with a few fixtures sprinkled in. I was here on an errand for someone, actually, so I came looking specifically for a long sleeve Patagonia shirt. They had plenty! They do feature a lot of Patagonia, Hippytree, Cotopaxi, and Naturebacks among others, including a few things with their own house brand. It's primarily clothing, and I didn't really look too much into the gear stuff. They had some nice sweatshirts, tees, and long tees. With those brands, you can imagine that they're not giving the stuff away. Long tees were anywhere from $25 to $50. That's about par for the course on the stuff, so not unreasonable so far as comparison shopping goes. I dig the vibe, I dig what they're into. It's a small store so you can pretty much peruse everything and see what they're about in one trip, but with changing inventory you have plenty of reason to come back again.

I met up with them, but noticed a store in the strip that caught my attention. They had Patagonia, Cotopaxi, and some other brands I recognized, so I ditched the girls and went over to check it out. This store is awesome! It has a nice vibe and a great assortment of comfortable and useful clothing, gear, bags, etc for outdoor types. Definitely has the mountain vibe that compliments the nearby mountain ranges! One of the owners, Amber, was super friendly and helpful and I really loved the selection of clothing and accessories in the store. If you are looking for a local boutique to feel the outdoor Utah spirit, MAGO is the place to visit!

Monica (both of them) and Lakshmi are very kind and very helpful in finding what you're looking for, finding your size (and helping you put it on haha.) They have a huge selection and are a family run store. The owners came in to help out when I was there last, as they were very busy. Everyone here was beyond helpful and welcoming to me, which was such a relief as I had no idea what I needed! I will definitely be back and I definitely recommend. (Also. Punjabi pants are like the most comfortable things ever and I wear them all the time now.) My picture does not do this Punjabi suit justice- it's absolutely beautiful and was very affordable.

It's definitely on the expensive side, but it's worth it. Everything I have gotten from Bastille has always been awesome, and don't have the fear of knowing that someone will have it, as I do with Urban Outfitters. Plus, it's local and we gotta boost dem local bizzzz. My favorite thing overall is when they have sales and whatnot, you get a personalized email from the person that helped you before, letting you know you have first pick for the sales - that makes this business jump into a better category than any other clothing store I've been to in SLC. I like that.

Bastille has a great selection of brands although in the last few years it seems seasonally behind,…read morestill sporting winter colors and fabrics well into spring and summer. I shop many of these brands while traveling and have bought things that have shown up at Bastille a whole season (or year) later. Maybe earlier and more aggressive mark downs would help turn over inventory quicker? When something is months old, it should go on sale. I've mostly shopped at the gateway location and despite some choppy customer service have remained a steady customer for especially their Gstar jeans. This week I got the regular presale email. Lots if regular items on Sale, a presale plus 10 % off everything in store for preferred customers. As I arrived I was greeted without anyone telling me about sale. I found a bunch of racks with red dot on tags but when I asked what dots were for (hoping presale) I was told it was marked for inventory purposes only. I found a nice dress in the regular sale area marked down to $100. As I was paying I pulled up my email and asked about the 10 % off. The man behind the register answers that that is for presale only. I said "well what's presale items then?" I get a reply from another associate that everything marked in red dots is 40 % off for presale customers. "Oh, we'll I wish I would have known that was all on sale, I wasn't told when I asked" I replied. After having gone through all those clothes thinking they were regularly priced I simply didn't have it in me to go through them all again. Frustrating. "So what about 10 % on everything in store as listed in email?" I show him the email. He replies that he can give the 10 % but that I will have to pay now and pick up dress on Saturday. Why??? Talk about making it difficult for someone trying desperately to shop the sale in their store. Argh!!! I waited for him to be decent and give me the 10% off since the sale and extra discount was the whole reason I made the special trip there and now I missed both. Silence. I finally said "oh well I guess it's not worth $10 for me to come all the way back here on Saturday". Clueless of golden opportunity to treat a loyal customer with some proper customer service, he took my $100 and wished me a good day. Felt like stomping out of there like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. "Big mistake, HUGE"! The money doesn't bother me really but how easily he dismissed and confused a clearly loyal customer who was trying to get the deal the email had advertised. In today's economy, that kind of "service" is downright stupid.

It keeps me warm in cool weather and freezing cold weather, but I'm also able to wear this jacket in sweatshirt type weather without overheating. So if you don't know by now, I love my jacket. The clothing line is kinda limited to jackets and warmer clothing, but they are emerging with shirts, shorts, and pants. However, their jackets are their bread and butter. They have awesome colors and different styles of jackets. Last time I checked they had some amazing looking, bright, 100% polyester hiking/running shirts for sale that I want to buy. Most down jackets come with a stuff pouch for packing and camping. Everything in their store has a 100% manufacture guaranteed: "We design our products for quality, performance, and sustainability. We will repair or replace any product we make with a manufacturing defect, free of charge." Service: A The store is great, with helpful employees. You'll probably be greeted and welcomed to the store and asked if they can help you with anything. When I bought my jacket the zipper had some issues so they took back my jacket after examining it and sent a new one to my house. Price: A- You might spend $100 on a jacket, but you will be warm and comfortable for the entire Winter and the Winters to come. I have other jackets, but I always find myself wearing my GoLite 800 fill down jacket. These product are 100% worth the price, I'd say you are even getting a steal of a deal. I am completely satisfied with my purchase, the price I paid, and how comfortable I am in my jacket.

I love Hello Kitty and my husband knows how much I adore her so we made our way in to check it out. I didn't expect the store to be so eclectic. There's a little of everything here. Clothes, toys, jewelry, socks. It's quite overwhelming but in a fun way. There's so much to look at! There were a lot of dresses and kids clothes in the front. You make your way back to the store and there's more stuff to look at. I did make it to one of the back corners that had more clothes. I did find a pair of overalls that really caught my eye. They are very cute and floral but very expensive. I did notice a few sale tracks but of course I didn't find anything on them. My husband knew I really liked the overalls so he bought them for me. Honestly, I felt shoppers guilt for my husband cause of how pricy they were. They were just fabric overalls that were ankle length. 50 bucks..... I have bought Gap denim overalls at that price but 50 for denim doesn't seem unreasonable. The lady that rung us up was nice. She folded my overalls, bagged them and handed them to me in a bag. Overall it was a neat store but very overpriced. If you are willing to spend the extra bucks for their products then go for it! I know that no one else in town will have the same overalls as me which is cool. But they were pricy and I probably wouldn't have gotten them if it came out of my own pocket. But I'm happy my sweet husband talked me into them.
