Perfect Place for First Skateboard!…read more We had the best experience at Republik of Kalifornia in San Clemente! My son was building his very first skateboard, and the staff went above and beyond to make it special. They took the time to explain every part -- from the deck to the trucks and wheels -- and made sure he understood how everything worked. The team was incredibly patient, friendly, and genuinely excited to help him create something that felt like his own. The vibe in the shop is so welcoming -- cool, creative, and full of that true SoCal skate spirit. You can tell they really care about the community and the next generation of skaters. We left with a beautifully built board, a huge smile on my son's face, and a new favorite local shop. Highly recommend Republik of Kalifornia to anyone looking for authentic, knowledgeable, and down-to-earth service. We'll definitely be back!

These guys are awesome!…read more I was at the post office next door and decided to stop in, they had vintage motorcycles parked out front and I was in the market for a new helmet. The guy up front was very helpful and surprisingly knowledgable of older bikes. Thanks to some of his advice I was able to FINALLY get my '74 cb550 registered here in ca without having to take it to chp ;) But that's besides the point... I stopped by a couple of weeks later to purchase the badass bitwell gringo full face helmet I had spotted the last time I was in and was disappointed when I walked up to the door. It was a Monday afternoon and they were closed! I called them up to see if they had just forgotten to open the door, I was desperate. The owners son answered and offered to open the doors and sell me the helmet even though they were closed. Met a few other people who were working on stocking the place, everyone was super friendly! I LOVE my helmet and would totally get some of the clothes if they were offered for women.

It's always fun to poke your head in the garage out back to see what the latest projects are. I picked up a t-shirt and a hoodie the first time I went there and have had a lot of people giving compliments and asking where I got them. In addition to having a really cool retro aesthetic, these clothes are really well made. My hoodie (for example) is made of old school flannel that is soft as can be and will last forever. Love these guys, and you will too.

I'm especially happy they still carry Von Dutch and Affliction those have been my favorites since high school, and I still wear them today. Some items can be pricey, but that's expected since each table is a different vendor, and honestly the value is worth it. Overall, the staff and the shopping experience are always great!

Deceptive and unfriendly…read more Sign at front of store says 60% off for clearance. Even goes as far as having the + in front. However, they refuse to honor sale, apparently because I'm a male shopper. The discount is only for female shoppers. Lesil, the manager, was asked about the policy and signage and she refused to honor any discount on clearance, stating this was only for womens clearance section. Nothing in the signage states that and would be misleading to a consumer. False and misleading store who doesn't seem to care. I am refusing to shop here any further.

After following up on my refund for 6 months, which Electric repeatedly said was coming, they told…read moreme to fight it with my credit card. Finally, I was able to do do, and then Electric had the audacity to say "There is a chargeback dispute that Citibank sided with you. There is nothing else we can do for this order." Bottom line: Their customer service does not exist. They make it your problem and lie to you over and over. What a SCAM. As a customer for over 10 years, I will never purchase or let anyone I know purchase Electric again.

I have an upcoming wedding and came in with zero expectations because it's my first time buying a…read moresuit. I ended up paying around $345 for a suit that will be tailored to my size. Includes the socks, tie, and the whole suit. Customer service was fantastic, they are very helpful on finding the right size and let you try on different sizes to make sure it fits you. The lead time for a tailor is about 3 weeks, that's the only down-side... so it is best if you plan ahead of time before your actual wedding date. Located in downtown Santa Ana so there is street parking, but there is a small lot behind the building with only 5-6 spots.

We didnt know about their promotions and we stopped by to but jeans and shirts for work so we hit the jackpot.there is also a decent parking outside and it wasnt busy for outlet....So we enjoyed and saved....

The store's burglar alarm came on when 2 ladies with a stroller got out of the store. We were surprised that the ladies didn't bother to come back to the store and find out why they were flagged.

I'm parked on a winery patio next to The Cove, nursing a glass of something bold while my wife…read moredisappears into what I can only assume is a portal to fashion nirvana. I don't question it. She emerges happy, and that's all that matters. But here's the thing--The Cove isn't just another beach-town boutique. It's an anomaly. A lone wolf. A place that, by all rights, should be in a hip LA district or some high priced shopping mecca, not wedged between surf shops and dime-a-dozen fast fashion joints. Yet, here it stands, holding its own. I don't pretend to understand women's casual fashion, but even I can recognize quality when I see it. High-end labels. Carefully curated pieces. Stuff that doesn't scream "I bought this off a clearance rack at a strip mall." This is where the sharp-dressed, boho-chic crowd comes to play. A word to the wise: if you see something you like, buy it. Boutique shopping is a cruel mistress--wait too long, and that perfect piece will be gone, never to return. (Discovered on more than one occasion) So if you (or your better half) have a taste for fashion that's actually worth the price tag, The Cove is the move. Me? I'll be next door at the winery next door.
