KiK is a very popular store in downtown Wildeshausen, Germany. It features an impressive array of men's, women's and children's clothing all at very reasonable prices. I found an insulated lightweight vest there and wore it for a day. However, the collar was misshapen, and would not stay in place. I brought it back, hoping I could exchange it for one which did not have a collar defect. No such luck.
The store manager at KiK was gracious enough to give me full credit toward a different style of jacket, a bit more expensive and a lot better assembled. It was a very cordial transaction, and now I am protected against the elements here in northern Germany. It will also be quite serviceable in San Diego, during our so-called Winter months. read more
