Came in to pick up an order I had delivered to the store. THe employee was nice and courteous. She found my order, I signed off on it and I was good to go. I saved $8 on shipping since my order didn't qualify for free shipping and I was in the area on the day I dropped by, so win win. read more

I came in yesterday around 6:20pm and when we walked in the guy helping us was very nice and we thought everything was going well. He had let us know "Perfect we have time to embroider" so we got 6 initials on two sides. They got the sides wrong and the color of the stitch wrong but it didn't matter to us, but the finished product on one side was HORRIBLE. Both sides can be compared and it does NOT look good, very rushed because they took long up until closing to finish. So we came in today to maybe redo it, and we were very nice since we didn't have problems before. He said "Well i told you yesterday the mesh wouldn't look good so idk what you want" and we showed him how both sides look very different even the fucking M's and i pointed it out and he was SO passive aggressive and when we were looking around he stopped by just to say "thanks for getting here earlier today" as if we didn't get there on time..? I didn't know we had to come when it was convenient for him. We ended up getting a refund and going to a different Lids. He has a beard, and was very rude just because we wanted a refund/ redo. read more

Kirby and the team at this store are amazing!! I came in for a secret Santa gift and I received exceptional customer service from Kirby and the team working today. Seriously, I shared with Kirby the very little I knew, and he was able to provide so many options. He even gathered the other staff's opinions. They were all super engaging. I would highly recommend this location. read more

Even though every employee is probably is no more than 23 years old. They definitely have great customer service. The store is small so kind of hard to navigate but everything is very organized and smooth sailing good job, young people. read more

I have ordered my husband's sports products from Lids for the last 10 years, never had any issues until this year 2024. I ordered him a 2024 draft day hat for Father's Day, that was suppose to be here by June 15, 2024, the product was never received, tracking provided states that the order label was created but the product was never received and still waiting for it. Lids sent a replacement order that was suppose to arrive by June 22, 2024. The provided tracking information states the same as the first order, a label was created but the product was not received and still waiting for it. Called Lids again they gave me a run around for the orders and the tracking information, reshipped a 3rd time for the product to be here by July 3rd 2024, I got a run around for wanting a refund, they refuse to ship over night. This is not just one order its been 3 now which is the same order that they can not get right. LIDS IS GOING DOWN HILL, NOTHING BUT BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE ONLINE AND IN PERSON. I RECOMMEND Fanatics.

The only store still not open in the mall. Can they schedule people who will be there on time to open the store!? I'm frustrated because I really needed something before I went to work Thanks a lot Lids. Update #1 Day 2. Wish I could leave a separate review. But this is day 2 coming to the mall to get something at Lids. It's 12:53, and it's not open. I understand it may be lunchtime, but what other store in the mall closes for lunch?! Come the fuck on. Hire more help, or let's another business rent out this spot. This is ridiculous. I don't have time for this. I will never shop here again. Update #2 This fool came Bach at 1:06, I walk into the store and he has the nerve to say, 'ma'am I'm closed, I'm about to do an interview' ...the fuck you are mother f'er! You're going to take this return. F that!! PS. He was nice tho!! read more

Lids - Now 12:53 and no one is here... - Sports Wear Near Me - Hayward, California

Came a few weeks ago to return a hat I got for Christmas. Couldn't return or exchange because a sticker was missing. I went to stone ridge and was able to exchange it. Not really understanding this hard policy for a $40 unworn hat when it still had the barcode sticker and receipt. read more

We came in at the last minute and Gabriel was amazing! His customer service was truly a breathe of fresh air. He helped us find the perfect hats and didn't rush us and even completed the custom print after the mall had already closed! Will definitely be back! Thank you Gabriel read more

Waited around the mall for at least 45 minutes for a employee to return to this store. I there trying to return a item I purchased earlier in the day. I ended up leaving .. Next morning I return and the employee gave me attitude and stated that the hat looked worn Long story short MY ITEM WAS RETURNED . read more

Lids - This is clearly GHETTO AND UNPROFESSIONAL.. No time indicating when they will return !!! - Sports Wear Near Me - Hayward, California

Came two different days around 10:15 am since it says open at 10 and still closed. They need to update schedule or get employees to start on time read more

Came to the store on July 9 at 130 . The guy working there almost kick me out of the store because he was going to take a 10 minutes break. Its 2:15 and I'm still waiting for him to come back from break. What a waste of time. read more

If there was an option to give one star I would. Staff completely unprofessional I came in about two days ago to place an order for embroilment. They said it would be done the next day and I would receive a call when my order was done. Today I called i someone said they wasn't sure if my order was even started and that they will check. I herd him asking around in the background everyone was completely unaware. He said he would check the other store and he would get back to me. Couple hours have passed and no call. I call again The "manager" answered put me on hold and after ten minutes hung up in my face. I called again someone said "I can't hear sh*t your saying" and hung up. So I drove to the location and my order wasn't even started so i asked for a refund. The "manager" said she would not give a refund with out my receipt when they told me to pick up I only need my ID and they had a copy of my receipt. I do I had to drive home and get my receipt HAND it to her and she took her time talking to employees before doing my refund. Then she threw my money at me. I always shop on lids website. I still will continue to shops at store fronts just not this location read more

I went to Lids yesterday at a different location to open an access pass membership and they completely messed up the process, misspelling my name and email so I never got the confirmation after purchasing the Access Pass, went to the location today to try and fix the situation and the staff was unhelpful saying the system is down and to come back later. I decided to go to a different location, which is where the 5 star review kicks in, for Maya, honestly one of the best members Lids has for customer service, she was extremely kind and patient. I work in customer service myself so small issues that are worth something like 5 dollars might annoy the regular person, but no Maya was extremely patient with an spectacular attitude as she was correcting the mistakes of the other store. Side note, store was well organized and lots of inventory compared to other lids. read more

Came in today for a bday gift hoping I could get help. I didn't even get a welcome in or how can I help you the sales associated didn't even acknowledge me I felt I couldn't ask questions. Left unhappy won't be coming back to this store. read more

Worst customer service ever. I walked in here with the intention to buy hats and have them each embroidered with the initials of 10 kids in Africa I intended to give to as gifts. Employees had major attitude, you would think I dabbed their upper lips with poop. I simply walked out. Never will spend my money here. read more

picked up a lid (5) here on sale. not the kind u smoke but the kind you wear. looks like something sherlock holmes would wear, not like all the sportswear here. . lids usually go for 10-15 here. will come in handy in the cold weather. might even keep me from getting shot since i'm wearing my hoodie all the time. no service problems since i just selected a cap out of the bin and paid for it. read more

Have been in here a few times and other than my first time the employees couldn't be less helpful. No "How you doing?" or "Can I help you." I mean I don't expect to get greeted like I'm walking into a high class resort or anything but at least acknowledge my existence. And even though it's not specific just to Lids, is it possible to get a hat anywhere without the straight bill? I hate the way those things fit. Definitely not a fad I'm rollin with. Of course I am in my early 40's and maybe shouldn't be wearing baseball hats everyday but that's besides the point. Get me some helpful employees and a decent hat to wear bastards. read more

A couple of cute girls work there. One was very friendly and gave me directions to another mall in the area. That's all I got out of that store. read more

Nice selection of hats here. One reason I came is they have kid/toddler hats too. So I picked up a fitted new era cap for my 3 year old. I'll be back to buy him more hats too. Get the membership, its $5 a year for 20% off each time you shop there. read more

Got a hat embroidered here and the only three numbers that are on the front of the hat are not only crooked in the numbers but are completely off center by about an inch. Don't get hats embroidered here. It takes too long and the quality is dog shit read more

If I could give this store a 0 I would! One of the managers who did the stitching on my hat misspelled GRANDDAD! Which is highly unacceptable! When I insisted that it was incorrect they were refusing to fix it! While going back and forth with the young lady, another manager who is a male got into my face was going back and forth with me as well and telling me they weren't going to fix it nor was I going to get my money. PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THIS STORE! read more

Worst customer service ever. Guy at the cashier saw me coming in the store looked at me and went back to doing whatever he was doing on his phone. Didn't say hi or ask if I needed any help until I went up to him. He also wasn't wearing a uniform or a tag to tell whether he worked there or not. Asked him if they would embroider my hat and he told me only his manger could help with that, so I proceeded to ask him what time he would be in and he couldn't even give me a clear answer. Very disappointed. read more

Was told I couldn't return items I had purchased online in this store. Though lids.com clearly states "You can return a purchase from our website to any of our local retail stores". Wasted my time. read more

Yes, worst customer service ever. The guy with the long hair has a really bad attitude. Not sure if he was having a bad day or not but damn. He was probably mad because he was working on new years.. he should work on his customer service skills. read more

Just called to see if they would have any World Series hats available, guy who answered was completely rude and was honestly condescending. All I had was a question, and he decided to be rude about it? Come on. Told me that the hats were out of market/area, yet I know of someone else who called this same store with the same question and whoever they talked to said they were going to get them soon, but not exactly sure when. And I also know that during the 2012 and 2014 World Series, my brother was able to buy the Giants hat down in LA with the WS patch at a Lids with no problem. Out of market? Yeah, sure, whatever. If you're not sure about it, be a little nicer or better yet, be honest. Completely unnecessary to be rude like that, disgusting tone, wouldn't even think of going to that store in person if they can't even give me satisfactory customer service over the phone, to answer a simple question. Ridiculous. Can't believe I keep giving this place chances. The employee there with a goatee and long hair just has incredibly horrible customer service skills and he's incredibly rude. I know how ordering online works, I've done it countless times and yet he's talking to me as if I'm an idiot and I don't know shit about it, incredibly condescending, loves to talk down on you, something has to be done. read more

I don't know if the Managers or Corporate actually looks at these reviews but whatever! Claritza(whatever her name is) should not be working in retail/customer service. She is LAZY and RUDE!! I walked in looking for the All Star A's Hats to go with my mans Jersey. I went to ask her where they were and she just walked away, okay fine maybe she didnt see me. So i ask the who i believe was the MOD, he shows me where and I asked her if they had a 7 5/8 she points to all the hats and says thats all we have left. im sorry, correct me if I am wrong but from my experience shopping at Lids they look for your size when you ask them for it. Thats their job right!!? Apparently not for this girl because she looks at the Other guy next to her and tells him to look for one and he looks at me like look for it yourself. WTF, so the first guy i mentioned (im assuming he was the MOD) started sorting through them and let me know the sizes available! THANK YOU ! Now i choose the size, and CLARITZA is ringing me up, she asked me if I had a lids card, i said yes but if she can look it up by phone number. i didnt know this was an issue because she made a gesture like i just made her life a living hell. So she tells me it is expired, and if i want to renew it. I said yes, that is fine! She replies with "Do you want to or not?" Woah buddy! Aggresive much?? I didnt know saying YES THAT IS FINE is unclear. Her whole attitude and body language was just uncalled for. IT IS YOUR JOB, you chose to do it! I have worked in CSR/Retail for 5+ years and yes i understand it is frustrating but to me you should never treat a customer like this especially when she was not being rude or anything towards you. I know the BS they deal with sometimes and i make sure to not be a PTA customer. Ill keep my business at the Concord Lids in Sun Valley. WAAAAY BETTER service. It was unfortunate that I need the hat tomorrow and I am in this area. read more

I was trying to exchange my Warriors cap to a better design...the guy in the counter is busy, so i waited fir him. He asked what i need. I told him i wanna exchange the cap. He told me that i didn't bought the cap from there. I said yes, i bought it at Lids in Stoneridge mall....he flipped the cap and stated that it's not a Lids cap! How DUMB & STUPID of this guy. I told him to scan it & call the Stoneridge lids store. It was confirmed & he let me choose their selection. To my dismay, i left the store pissed because of his attitude. And btw, he called me RUDE! The guys name is ROB, a little prick with a ghetto attitude....poor customer service in their part! Never go to this store....assholes waiting for you! peace! read more

This place sucks!!! Bought 2 hats, paid over $70 and I don't get a thank you. Also had to wait cuz their computer sitting on top of a cardboard box wasn't working. Don't give them ur business!! read more

Bought a hat when I got home I noticed the logo on the front was crooked so I returned the next day to exchange it walked up to the register and explained to the guy Rob why I wanted to exchange it he said that all the hats are like that which was a lie when I checked for my self he seamed irritated that I wanted to exchange it I got the hat that I wanted and explained to him that I'd like to use my lids card discount that wasn't used when I first bought the hat which seemed to annoy him even more when I gave the phone number for the account he asked what the name was on the account which was my gf he said I couldn't use it and explained to him that we've always used it that way before but he said that I couldn't use it so i just grabbed my hat with the straight logo which he said they did not have & left I give this place 2 stars for their cool hats but their customer service 0. read more

I have been to this store twice in the past week. Little League season just started and we were getting personalized hats for my son and his coaches. Both times, I was helped by a girl (I think her name-tag said Tee?) who was extremely nice and helpful. All thanks to the awesome customer service we received from Tee, we will definitely be coming back. read more

I love Lids but this location lacks what it needs to be successful, good customer service. I went there today with my friend to exchange a hat I purchased for a large size because the person I bought it for didn't fit it. I came into the store, and approached a sales associate and told him I needed to make an exchange. I was then handed off to another sale associate by the name of Mercedes. Mercedes took the hat out of the bag and walked into the back and came back out accusing me of wearing the hat and trying to return it. Mercedes was showing me "wear" marks and an odor. First off, the wear on it was just pieces of lint? The hat is shedding a little bit so of course there will be little pieces of lint but nothing that can't be taken off and the odor that was coming from it is the smell of suede! Its not the normal cloth hats they have in store and clearly this sales associate did not know what they were talking about and kept insisting that I was wrong. Then Mercedes was telling me I bought the hat on the 24th of October which was a week ago implying its been a "long" period of time and I had an opportunity to wear it. Do you not know your store policy? 30 days! I don't have all the time in the world to go back to store and exchange it, I have other things to do and I came on my spare time to do so within the 30 days. I gave up trying to work with this sales associate, clearly does not know anything about Lids return/exchange policy. Well I went to another Lids location at Great Mall and they took it back without a problem and exchanged it for the correct size. I might not look like I wear hats, but I cotdamn know a thing or two about them and that sales associate is tripping. I am not giving this location my business ever, they disrespected me by telling me that I was pretty much trying to scam them out of a hat by trying to exchange a "used" hat for a brand new one. I am calling the store tomorrow to speak to a manager about this matter, because its ridiculous. Another Lids store that has been in business longer than them saw no problems with my request but this location took it to the next level by telling me that I was trying to do them dirty. Zero stars if I could, for having shady sales associates at this location. read more

The sales person David was rude and the store return policy is average. However Lids store and David were not accommodating at all!
