This is a really neat store, reminiscent of an REI or Sun and Ski, but on a more boutique type of…read morelevel. They had a lot of brand names such as Yeti, Patagonia, Kuhl, North Face, and Cotopaxi. They also had the boutique brand name prices. Ouch! Was a little more expensive than the aforementioned box chain stores that can stretch out the discounts and push product faster. This location is in an upscale market area with the likes of Tiffany's, Jimmy Was, Gucci, Neiman Marcus, etc, so that pushes the price up a bit, I get that. Demographics and all.
Was a neat little store. Had a lot of the new items, geared for cold weather right now, I'm sure the items change. Some of the spring stuff was arriving. The products speak for themselves as far as quality. However that's where the quality runs out. There was a staff of 3 there this day, but not a single one of them said a thing to us the entire time we were there, we were there for 20-25 minutes total. Two of them, younger ladies, just stood there talking to each other while leaning on the clothing racks up front. They glanced at my wife and I and went back to their discussions. Gave me a reminded reference to the scene in Pretty Woman, when Julia Roberts character walks into the classy boutique on Rodeo Dr, and the lady's shun her for not looking like she can afford anything. Sad thing is, we buy these items all the time for our adventures, rides, and hikes, and if they work off commission, then they just lost a huge amount of commission and sales cuz we looked, saw a few items we thought of grabbing, but left because of the snobbish and stand offish atmosphere. This is sad, because this was really neat little store cradled in the high end shopping distract amongst some really good eateries.
