This place sells neat clothing, and it's nice to have a board shop on the island. My frustration…read morewith this business stems from the employees' laziness. I came in two days ago, asked about a board. They were out. I said I was interested in acquiring a board ASAP, they said come in later when their inventory arrives. I literally walked up to the people who deliver shipments to businesses after they're flown to the island. I asked if they were going to deliver to CSC that day. They said they were on the way after stopping at Vons. Couple hours later, I stop at the shop and the shipment is sitting right next to the employee at the register. They said come back later, they had to unpack all the stuff. I say okay, expecting to have the board later that day. Come in later that day. It's 4:50pm. There's a note on the door saying "on break, back at 5". I already knew the employee was lazy and wouldn't be back on time, so I come back at 5:15. I arrive seconds before them, while they're pulling the keys to the business out of their pocket. Boxes still sitting there. They say come back tomorrow. Okay... Next day, I come back several times desperate to buy a board, every single time the same boxes are sitting on the floor. Ended that day empty handed. It's currently 2:50pm the next day. I've dropped in twice already today. Same thing. They KNEW I was willing to drop $200 on board parts, why would you not just take out components to a board and sell them to me? I've given up. I just wanted to ride, dude. Come on... Any skateboarders know what it's like when you get that itch and just need to ride. Someone who runs a boardshop should definitely get it. Anyone with business sense would get it. This place kept playing with me, acting like they were actually going to do what a business does. I felt like I was in some sort of absurd time loop. I am severely disappointed. I may just buy someone's board off of them. I'm sure it's not a bad business but this was a horrible experience. I mean, lazy is one thing. Three days to open a few boxes and scan some barcodes though? That's a whole new level.

When I got home, I noticed that there were stains around the neck, the fabric was peeling, and there was yellowing in the armpits. I paid FULL price for clearly worn, dirty, used clothes. I know that it's on me. I should have checked more carefully. Just being naive thinking that a beautiful and exclusive place like Catalina would have higher standards.

The prices and selection for the island wear that owner Celina Resetnikov offered was VERY reasonable. Not sure if the sales lady was the owner but, she was so attentive without being obnoxious.

Absolutely cute souvenir shop with cute coffee mugs, men and women's clothing & Catalina Island branded products & so much more, with a variety of price points! Cozy Fabric: In October, Catalina Island can get pretty chilly at night time! Before quickly walking over to the movie theater, I stopped at this cute store and picked up a fuzzy-wuzzy sweater jacket to keep warm & it totally worked! Even cooler, the sweater jacket is reversible, and it felt like a warm blanket wrapped around me! I was super happy & very warm!

Hidden gem! We stopped in as we did other shops along the water front. As I browsed, I was struck…read moreby the high percentage of embroidered items. Not your typical printed embossed stuff, mind you, but old-school embroidered. I found one design I particularly liked on a sweatshirt (not the season for one where I live, but it was perfect). I brought it to the register where I met Dina. When I mentioned how pleased I was about the quality of the embroidered work, she smiled and explained they were embroidered "in the back." I was impressed. We continued talking and I mentioned how much I loved the unique designs, nothing I'd seen anywhere. She smiled even more and admitted she'd designed them! I asked more about how (I do some graphic design work) and turns out she does them by hand. By hand! Not using modern technology, but true art. Please, if you visit Catalina Island, check out this shop. It's the middle storefront at the Hotel MacRae, the sign was missing on my visit. Buy one of Dina's embroidery designs. Buy several. Our visit to the island was amazing and we will be back. Each trip I intend to bring home a Dina original.

It's a great, ever-changing plethora of a little bit of everything. This is a well organized thrift store. The moment you walk in, you can pretty much see all the various departments and what they are offering where. They generally keep their records and books up near the front, and their clothing over to the right side. They also keep their more boutique items behind the counter. That is a perfect place to discover that unique and/or antique or collectible item. They have all their electronics in the back. So if you're looking for anything electrical, and or anything else like that, that's your place to go. Overall, this is a fun shop to go into. The staff here are always really nice. And, you can come upon that item that you've been looking for or that's something you never knew you needed.

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.
