I will forever be coming back to this place for any leather alterations. I got a $900 leather…read morejacket and the fit was perfect except for the sleeves which were a couple of inches too long. I searched the internet for the best leather alteration businesses. I went to some to ask if they could do the job on this type of leather (roughout leather) and they gave me the "hmmm... yea I could do it" and charged a large number. One place even quoted me $135... San Diego Sewing Concepts was 4th on my list and when I showed up Armando helped me out. When I asked if he could do the job, he did not hesitate for a second and said he absolutely could and has years of experience with leather. It's a small business but Armando's expertise and his explanation of how he'd do the work gave me confidence that I was in the right place. As I wore the jacket, he adjusted the sleeve, measured, made sure I liked the length, and marked with chalk. He quoted me a very reasonable price, and that was the amount I paid in the end. Armando finished the job in 2-3 days. When I returned to pick up my jacket I was sooooo happy with the result! It was perfect. He shortened the sleeves by exactly 2.25 inches, as he had measured initially. I inspected the sleeves and there was no noticeable ugly markings or indication that it had been altered. I ended up purchasing the jacket in a another color and brought it here to get the same job done. Once again, Armando delivered, a quick and flawless job!

If you love art, you will love this store. They carry all kinds of creative items with some…read morerecognizable and contemporary art used in their pieces from all over the world. They have phone cases for all types of cellphones, which is nice because some places that you visit only have phone cases for iPhones. I have an iPhone 7 Plus and I was very impressed at the selection of phone cases available. I used to have a Samsung and I was equally as impressed that they had cases for them, as well. Their prices are high, no doubt; especially for a phone case. They were all $29 for a case. I wished they were a little bit cheaper or had a special deal or something if you buy more than one case. I would have loved to buy 2 or 3, but I couldn't see spending almost $90 on 3 phone cases. I did however buy 2 cases; one for my son since he did a great job taking care of his sisters while I was on my trip. The prints on them were really cool. From Marilyn Monroe and Jimi Hendrix to different city scenes in New York, San Francisco, Paris, and San Diego to graffiti scenes, etc. They had wallets and credit card holders that had some of the same scenes, as well as bags, leather magnets, leather key chains, shirts, print art and even skateboards. The cheapest thing in there was the phone case. They do have a Yelp check-in offer for 10% off your purchase, but the cashier didn't enter it right. I even showed him on the receipt that it says the total discount is 5%, not 10%, but he gave me some lame explanation saying he took 5% off of each case, when in fact he only took 2.5% off of each case. I didn't want to stand there and teach math and haggle over the issue, so I let it go. Either way, the most important thing was to get something for my son and I achieved that.

I work in Customer service, so i know what it takes to be in this kind of work enviorment. Karla, one of their few great employees, is probably the best one there! Probably the best I have ever known! Everytime I've walked in there i am greeted with a smile and a Hello, and she always asks how im doing and ive seen her ask people where they are from (its a touristy area) which goes to show how much they care for their customer experience. There are a lot of choices here for art, their theme is very contemporary and modern, and like the name suggests it has many pieces inspired by street artwork. Thankfully the wonderful miss Karla was willing and able to help with my search for a great item. Her knowledge of the store and placement was astounding. She helped me get a wallet/card holder that had California on it. It was a great choice, my friends are always telling what a nice wallet it is, and to be honest its pretty great What sold me for this place was the service and people working there. Some places just forget the whole customer experience, not this place though. Karla just gave me hope for this world that there are still genuinely amazing people out there.
