They carry all the standard surf brands with great selection for men and women. We come for the accessories like their bags, belts, hats, etc. and they have great variety. The style is geared toward a surf and skate lifestyle. Staff was really friendly and helpful. They're consistently approachable and chill, which blended right into the feel of the store. We got exactly what we were looking for with the staff's help. They even helped us get a better deal by recommending some of their current sales.

Err I didn't actually needed to use the advice but that's good to know. They also sanitized everything so the items were really clean. She was really considerate and suggested that we do a fitting first. The flipper straps are actually adjustable so I didn't see an issue. We rented it for one day and the lady said we could just drop it off in the yard if we came back after hours. The whole experience was a breeze and I felt that she really tried to see what a customer's concerns may be and addressed them without my having to ask! I was also semi-interested in a glass ring and she explained how it came from and such. Just very attentive, responsive, and pleasant. The location is really convenient, easy to spot and park.

I went to rent snorkeling gear. I didn't know anything about what I needed so I asked for help…read more Tiffany found a pair of fins that fit me and handed me a bag with a snorkel and mask in it. She never suggested I do a fitting in the store, or suggested that the mask may not seal around my moustache. She asked how long I needed the rental. I asked if they do it for 24 hours or only by the day, and she said by the day. I asked how late they would be open and she said they closed at 5. I said I would be out after 5, so it sounded like I would need a 2 day rental. After she charged my card for a 2 day rental, THEN she mentioned that if I wanted to return the gear after 5 I could just drop it on the back porch. This would have been exactly the thing she should have told me when I was asking what time they closed BEFORE I had committed to 2 days. I only needed 1 day and she sneakily got me to sign up for 2. When I went out to snorkel that day, the mask was dirty and I could not get the mask to seal around my moustache, so water kept rushing in. I gave it a try but I just couldn't snorkel like that. By the time I gave up, it was after 5pm, so I knew the shop would be closed and I couldn't call or go in person that night in order to ask for a refund. When I returned the next morning. Tiffany was not working. The woman working called Tiffany on the phone when I explained the problem, but would not let me talk to her. Instead she just said "it's not company policy to issue refunds" and brushed me off. After complaining again I was given Tiffany's phone number to deal with her directly. I called and she did not pick up. I left a message and she did not return it. I guess she is too busy running for city council to care about how people perceive her business. I would not recommend this shop to anyone who is not an expert. Know exactly what you are getting and ask about every single rule before you give them any of your money. They will not try to help you. They just want your money.

They think noting of telling you an arrival time and then change it to the next day. So, don't count on them if you need something right away. I think shoppers must "claim" your order and several others, so delivery takes a long time. I will not renew my subscription. The one is for the second to last order. It is okay if you never need to return anything. I will do pickup instead.

DifferentLevel is locally owned and operated by DJ Delfin, who was born and raised in Hilo, Hawaii. His inspiration behind the DifferentLevel brand comes through his artwork of tattooing and from his depth of knowledge of Polynesian culture. He blends traditional design with contemporary Polynesian art, weaving together a story behind every hand-drawn piece. He does not consider himself as just a tattoo artist or designer, he’s also a healer and a storyteller. He tells each person’s journey through his tattoos; and like tattooing, each of his leggings holds powerful meaning behind each design and tells a story. Delfin believes his designs can be worn as an armor to protect, motivate and promote positive energy; giving people the strength and confidence to surpass their goals and perform at a Differentlevel.

This Ross is hands down one of the best I've EVER been to. The Ross Stores in CA are JUNK. The Ross…read morestores on Oahu are pretty good, but the Ross Store in Hilo is a GEM! I first started shopping here in 2005 when I was living in Keaau but I keep going back whenever I'm in town. Now granted if you show up when a cruise ship is in town then definitely things will get sparse but the brands and things they carry in here are the BEST. Of course like every store, especially BARGAIN stores, it's gonna have it's good days and bad days but luckily for me, the Ross angels always smile upon me and I find the coolest stuff. For those who don't know, here's some tips about this store: - You need to take some time in here to go through everything. That's when you find the killer stuff. I've gotten Via Spiga shoes for $8, Armani pants for $5, guess jeans for $1, Calvin Klein sweater/shrug for $6 and lots of other brand names you see in Nordstroms sold here. -You have to go with no particular items in mind. If you came here with a specific item in mind that you want, you'll probably be disappointed, but if you just come and let the spirit guide you, you're gonna find some great things. Just recently, I got my sister a $250 Speedo Parka (the kind swimmers wear at meets and/or you wear at a football game on the mainland) for $15. She's been wanting this too and how random is that I found it here?!? -I found that the non-island essentials are the cheapest; long sleeve Ralph Lauren polo shirts, leather jackets, sweaters, suits, etc. I've noticed that it's the super high end brand names in winter/cold weather styles is what's plentiful and cheapest here. Slippers, jean shorts, tanks and bathing suits are never gonna be on sale here and are usually the tourists/locals first choice items so you might find yourself better off at a Macy's 1 day sale for price and selection. At any rate, Ross ain't for everybody and it's definitely not a Macy's or Neiman Marcus, but it's clean and friendly enough. It's a bargain hunters playground!
