Go somewhere else to stand in long checkout lines to buy cheaply made clothing that falls apart after one wash. Bought a $40 Tommy Bahama Polo that started developing holes after one wash. Stood in the check out line to attempt an exchange where i learned about Nordstrom Rack's NOT SO EASY 90-DAY RETURNS POLICY https://www.nordstromrack.com/ship-return-policy Items must not be worn, altered or damaged" I was told i was SOL since i had washed the shirt. read more

I come here decently often because it's the closest location for me to return online orders in person. Service is usually a toss-up and depends on the employee. I don't think more training would hurt. Clothes and shoes are usually where they belong, and the fitting room area is both extensive and well-kept. I wish the prices were a bit better, but overall, people seem to like this location. read more

I got into some Hanky Panky last month. It all began with the dreaded Freezing Artic Blast. I knew I needed a little more to keep my butt warm. Literally. So armed with a solid recommendation from my trainer, Marissa, (we have similar behinds) I marched in ready and willing to make a panties purchase. Yes, this is a review about panties. The word should not make you blush. Panties. Women wear them all the time, from time to time or not at all. The rack had several cute nude-toned "Hanky Panky" panties that I picked out and a sexy pair of floral panties. Since I don't purchase these little items very often I headed towards the dressing room. Dressing Room Clerk: We don't allow you to try those on even over your own panties. Me: How do I know they will fit? Dressing Room Clerk: You have to purchase them first and try them on at home. Me: That makes no sense. I could try them on at home with nothing underneath and you would not know it. Dressing Room Clerk: That's our policy. Me: So I might be purchasing panties that someone else purchased before me and tried on without anything underneath at home and then returned them to you? Dressing Room Clerk: I guess....(Sighs and turns her back on me.) I took the panties home and went ahead and tried them on as though they were mine. Not all fit. The next day Nordtrom's got several pair back. I guess some of them could have gone through many try ons. Girls, we are in this together. I just never knew how close I was with strange women. read more

High quality Nordstrom clothing at half or less than half the retail price. I bought an Anne Klein black coat that is a classic. The lines, the cut, the fabric... I am in love. Retails for $170 and I got it for $80. This is the coat I was born to model. Seriously, I feel like a million bucks in it. Two pair of super comfortable and sexy 3" daily wear heels by Born one for $90 ($80 off) and one for $60($40 off) and a pair of True Religion Billy jeans $109 ($100 off) that fit like only True Religion can fit... so tight that it looks like I had to pray to get into them. Indeed, if you get on your knees I may -slowly- get out of them. Goodwill has been replaced and I am thrilled. From the looks of the crowds and the smiling happy faces, all of Austin is thrilled. Great selection of leather coats and shoes, wide variety of brand name jeans, excellent sportswear section with everything from yoga to tennis to running wear. Opening day was a madhouse, but all of the people who work here were very friendly and helpful. Be prepared for a 15 minute wait to try on clothes and a 15 minute wait to buy your clothes. Tacking a half hour onto my shopping time is nothing compared to the time I would waste sorting through clothing at Goodwill, looking for the Nordstrom/ Oleg Cassini/ Diesel throwbacks. Time is money and I feel like I just made out like a bandit. read more

Ever since the Mall of America opened in 1992 in Minneapolis, I've made it a point to visit the Nordstrom Rack there every time I'm in town to see my parents. I've found many great pieces there over the years, and have long wished that there was one in Austin. Now I don't have to wish any longer. The Rack here is even nicer than the one at the MoA. Perhaps because it's brand new, or perhaps because there aren't 40 million people traipsing through here a year (true fact - the MoA garners more visitors every year than *Disneyworld*), the Austin Rack is much better organized and seems to be much better stocked than the one at the MoA. I'll admit that the organization system of the Rack confounds me just a little. Dresses are in one spot, coats in another...except for dresses and coats made by the 20 or so designers who get their own racks separate from everyone else. I think the idea is that you're forced to pretty much paw through everything to make sure you've seen it all, but that's annoying to me. Also, I have never, ever, ever gone into a Nordstrom Rack dressing room that didn't have a wait. Can't they build just a few more rooms and alleviate that problem? Nonetheless, there are many treasures to be found here. From sumptuous Sorrelli jewelry to buttery leather handbags to sexxxy shoes to that perfect piece for (fill in the blank occasion), it's here at Nordstrom's Rack. You've just got to find it - and beat me to it. All over Austin, women find themselves uttering two words that would previously have made them roll their eyes: Nice Rack. read more

I don't know D & G from MK from BCBG. I am not impressed with names, I just want something that looks good and fits good and preferably that I won't be a walking billboard for (Old Navy I'm looking at you!). Seriously, paying $100 for a necklace with a D & G pendant? Why?? It's not even pretty or unique. $85 for sunglasses?? Just because they're made by Hugo Boss? They look like the ones I pay $10 for and lose constantly anyway. Obviously I went here with my gay best friend. It was all his idea. I get overwhelmed in stores like this cause it's all divided up by designer and I am clueless about who makes what style. If it were up to me, I would still be shopping Grrranimals where all the outfits are all put together for you. So, I tried on a few dresses (pretty dresses are universal), quickly figured out I still couldn't afford the jeans ($80 cheapest), and eyed the shoes. I was shocked by all the ho shoes (FMP's) too! Leopard print spikes, metal studded strappies, gold glittery sandals. Again, most of which I couldn't afford (or wear without tilting over). Bff found a sweater he liked and he bought it with a gift card, but even he said he was disappointed in the prices. This is the guy that can find Perry Ellis and Ralph Lauren easily at Savers for $4. I am probably not the right person to be reviewing this store. I'm a Kohls/Dillards/DSW girl. But I'm convinced there are others like me out there and if they're curious about this place, well, I threw myself under that bus for you. But never again.... read more

I LOVE A GOOD RACK. Nordstrom Rack that is. This place is like winning a tiny lottery over and over. I like to go in the mornings when everything's nice and neat. Maria the Tailor here does a good job on all my stuff. It's easy to waste a solid 1.5hr here. Pro tip: Get the Nordstrom Card!! It links to your debit card (dangerous I know) BUT you get $100 worth of free tailoring every year, and points. (no they don't pay me to say this) Let's face it you're going to shop here more than once so it's worth it. Relax and enjoy the hunt for a great bargain. I sure as hell do. read more

I've never had a bad experience at Nordstrom Rack (I usually go in Houston) but my experience at this one was terrible. If you ever have an exchange, AVOID HOLLY (if that was her real name). I was very friendly and explained that I was exchanging the SAME exact product for a different size and she insisted she wouldn't honor the original price I paid. I said it was the same item so I don't see why, and she started to get angry and condescending. I added that I called ahead to make sure I could do the exchange honoring my original lower price and the person I talked to assured me it wouldn't be a problem at all. Her response to that was rolling her eyes and saying "CLEARLY they don't know what they're talking about". Turns out Holly was the only employee here that was misinformed and extremely rude about it. I asked for the manager and she said "well he won't do it either" and what do you know, the manager came over and told her it should be a straightforward exchange honoring the price. She even repeated 3 times "but it was on sale" to try to sway him not to. She was so incredibly angry he told her to do the exchange that she couldn't even look at me when I said thank you or have a good day. Oh, she also tried to pull a fast one by not checking for a security tag. Luckily I caught it and specifically told her to remove it. If this location is that nasty about an EVEN exchange I can't even imagine how terrible they must treat returns. This company is built on superb customer service so employing the rudest of rude individuals is a great way to completely taint that image and ruin a loyal customer's experience. read more

If I had $1 for every time I heard "nice rack!", I would spend all those $$ on designer shoes here. There's nothing like that rush you get when you find a pair of shoes that originally cost $199, now on sale for $59, with an additional 35% off -- if the price tag has that special green stripe at the top. read more

I have mixed feelings about this store. I do like Nordstrom's, and I like them even better when I'm able to get their wares at a discount. But I seem to have a better chance of doing that online than in this store, which is really like a giant clearance rack. Hence, "Rack." If you're the type of shopper that likes to comb the clearance racks and doesn't mind crowds, then check them out. They have clothes for men and women, shoes, handbags, and accessories. Most of the clothing looks like office wear to me. The occasional evening wear and beach wear rack appears in the maze. And there are lots of jeans, discounted to the $70 range. The shoe racks take up the back third of the store. I overheard a sales person answering a shopper's question about where these shoes come from: anytime shoes are returned to Nordstrom's, they come here. Anytime a style is clearanced and they don't have room for all those shoes on their racks at the main store, they come here. So by all means, check out the shoes. But don't try them on barefoot. This is hard to accomplish with sandals, I know. I succumbed and ended up with a raging case of athlete's foot the next day. And I didn't even find shoes I wanted to buy. Thanks, barefoot shoe shoppers. If you buy anything from Nordstrom's online and decide to return it, this is the place to bring it to avoid a return shipping cost. They will just put it on their rack. They even give you a 90-day return window for items bought at the Rack. The markdowns are decent, but it's Nordstrom's, and their prices are high to begin with, so don't expect to get out of here cheap. And be prepared to wait in line at the registers, unless you're paying by credit card. In that case, if you can find an employee with a mobile device near the registers, you can check out in the aisles. Not a bad idea. read more

I stopped by NR today on my lunch break and found lots of things I wanted to purchase; but, the lines were just too long and I needed to get back to work so I left empty handed:( What I found that I so badly wanted to purchase: A VERY SEXY Chantelle bra that retails for 115.00 for 39.97! and Huge Betsey Johnson sunglasses for 19.97 that would be the perfect accessory to my would be Chantelle underwear! And next time I will bring or wear some undies so I can try on some of those True Religion jeans KK is raving about! And for the Drag Queens reading this - they carry a large selection of size 12 Designer Heels for under 100.00! read more

* Not the selection you'd expect * I used to love Nordstrom Rack in California and Washington. I have a particular fondness for Nordstrom button down shirts - the quality is much higher than many other brands, and I like the fit. So I was really excited to spot one in Austin on a recent visit. I was so disappointed to find not a single Nordstrom branded shirt (or product at all in the Men's section). They just had a bunch of junky products of really low quality. Couldn't find a single thing to purchase. I've never had that experience at a Nordstrom Rack before! It left me wondering if the whole chain gone downhill? Or is this just a bad location? read more

uh...not impressed. at all...I would describe this N.R. as a monet..looks good from afar, but it looks whack up close. Sure, they have the tony burch stuff right up front that makes it sexy and alluring. The somewhat organized appearance in the accessory section is also semi-attractive. However, when you get REAL close, you realize they don't have much of a selection.These are the brands you find at TJ Maxx or Marshalls. I mean, once in awhile, I did see some more outstanding labels, but not enough to really make it worthwhile. Even the "shoe section" I found completely lacking. There was no variety at all. It was like going through racks at payless shoe source where they have the same identical 20 pairs of shoes recycled from size 5 through 11. It was very much George Orwell's 1984 for me...except in shoes. I was so disappointed by this point that I didn't want to muster myself to the sales rack, but considering I drove my ass here I might as well take a look. In hindsight, I really shouldn't have. It really made the Costa Mesa N.R seem baller in comparison. Moral of the story, just go to the Nordstrom store or try your luck at a Marshalls/Tj Maxx at a nice neighborhood. You'll find the same kind of crap minus the hoity toity "nordstrom" name read more

Let's just start this by saying if there were a plus-sized department, I'd give Nordstrom Rack 5 stars. The only other time I've been to one was outside of Chicago and they had plus sizes. They also had my favorite Hobo purse for $20, which is how I fell in love with Nordstrom Rack. OMG, this place is a little slice of heaven. I went in looking for a pair of casual shoes that weren't black. I came out with a kick-ass pair of Cole Haan with Nike Air technology adorably casual shoes that were I to buy in season at Nordstrom, would have been nearly $200. I got them for less than half of that! The customer service was absolutely stellar. When I realized I didn't have my Nordstrom card with me, the cashier went to the back to look it up for me so I wouldn't forfeit my points. When she came back, she was entirely apologetic for it taking so long (it didn't, plus, she was doing me a favor) that she gave me an additional 25% off my shoes. If I could wear all of those teeny-tiny jeans, I'd be in heaven at the selection and prices at this place. As it is, I'll have to settle for shoes, handbags and accessories for now. And I'll be perfectly happy to do it! read more

There are a lot of locations that seem kind of messy and hard to shop in due to the layout or disorganized aisles of merchandise but this location is definitely not one of them. They have a great selection and a lot of their stuff goes on sale pretty quick. I guess they want to turn over their stuff pretty quick so that's nice! The one flaw is that the employees are not as nice as I wish but nothing can be perfect. They have plenty of parking and other places to get your shopping done nearby. read more

You're starting an amazing new job after a couple months of unemployment. You need to look good, but can't afford to go crazy. 10 items (including a few Kenneth Cole tops and sweaters for $19.99 each) and you're set till you see your first check. :) read more

This place is awesome! Why is there designer brand apparel for a fraction of the retail price!? I don't know why and I don't want to be told why...all I know is that I got two 7 Diamonds shirts which would have costs me $200 at the retail store for only $70!!! The Nordstrom Rack recently opened here in Austin at the Gateway Center near the Best Buy there (off of 183 across the highway from the Arboretum). They have a variety of designer brand names in everything from shoes to luggage pieces to watches. I get the feeling that some of these items might be discounted because they didn't sell in the regular retailer or maybe they're last year's line but I like what I bought and it was for fraction of the retail costs so I'm happy. Definitely go check it out, I'm sure there is a gem ($100 for designer jeans!? Awesome!) for everyone waiting to be plucked from there. Cheers read more

Carole is not a shoe girl. This place makes Carole a shoe girl. Did i just buy Coach tennis shoes?!?! yes. i did. That is ridiculous! read more

My first impression as I walked in was the store looked like an expensive version of Ross. Of course the quality and selection does not even compare with merchandise you can find in Ross. One of the strangest things I did see available for purchase was Neutrogena products. I was a bit perplexed on why Nordstrom would carry that, but... Personally I thought the Juniors section was kinda pathetic, but then again, I should not be shopping in the Juniors. The jeans were plentiful and had a nice offering of pricey, famous brands like Seven, Rock and Rebel and True Religion. I found 2 pairs, originally priced at $225 for $99. That right there was worth the visit. The shoes were decent...some prices I had to laugh at...$217 for a pair of plain, boring Mary Jane's?!? No thank you. They did offer up a lot of shoes for each size range. I wear the most common shoe size, and I had lots and lots to choose from. Overall, I'd definitely make the drive up north to hit up Nordstrom Rack if I had a desire for jeans. Everything else I can find cheaper in other stores down south. read more

I have to admit that the first time I visited this Nordstrom rack I was overwhelmed with all the clothing racks. It just seemed like too much digging. However, after coming back a few more times, I love it! Now that I know my way around, I have found some really great discounted brand name tops, shoes, and bags. My most recent purchase was a beautiful Kate Spade bag for summertime. The only thing I don't love about the store is the checkout line. Maybe it's just always crowded when I go but there is always a long line to wait in. I guess that's to be expected though with a good store. I'll be back! read more

I have long been a Rack fan, but I can no longer consider myself a satisfied customer. Today, I had two returns, one an unworn shirt and the other a sweater that had begun to unravel after only one wear. On my way in, reviewing my receipt, I noticed their return policy was stricter than other stores. The shirt was accepted as a return with no problem, but the poorly made sweater was not. I understand not accepting worn items, but when an item purchased less than 3 weeks ago is falling apart, it's a great disservice to the customer to not offer a solution. I guess it's a lesson learned: buyer beware. You would think that shopping at a store affiliated with the Nordstrom brand would be an investment in your wardrobe. Unfortunately, today, I find myself with an unwearable sweater and the money invested in it down the drain. read more

Nordstrom quality merchandise at outlet prices. It's hit or miss on what you can find here, but there's usually a great selection of clothes. Keep checking back - stock changes often. read more

FINALLY a place to relieve my bank account of being empty while keeping me looking stylish and classy. Ballin' on a budget. Great brand named clothing for a fraction of what it costs at a regular mall?? Heck yes! The shirt I'm wearing in my profile picture is one I purchased here for $12, sweet! The shoe selection for women is pretty large however, you really have to dig to find some cute shirts and jeans but the deals are worth it. read more

No way these are Nordstrom quality clothes...they're cheaply made. An associate explained they have 2 rounders with clothes from the real Nordstroms in the huge space . Think of this place as Nordstroms attempt to compete with Ross Dress for Less or TJ Maxx. Today ,despite huge signage over the cheaply made shoes announcing "Clearance", the woman at the cash register said very few pairs were actually marked down. I explained this was called "bait and switch" and was illegal in Texas. She said they do this all the time! read more

This review is specifically for the tailor at Nordstrom Rack. She is amazing, and with my 5'1" stature, she has allowed my wardrobe to rock. I trust her read more

Ever since the day it opened, Nordstrom kind of priced me out. The season's hottest fashions weren't really something in my budget. However, with my recent discovery of the Nordstrom Rack, my faith in having well-made fashionable things was discovered! There is literally every brand name featured in a regular Nordstrom store here- and mostly for outlet prices. So some of the prices aren't GREAT, but they're not horrible either. So my highlights of the store are few, but worth it. I scavenged through the clearance section and found a $5 cardigan (originally $60). I will admit, they do lack on the larger sizes unlike the south store. They do have a decent selection of XL stuff though, if you're in an inbetweenie kind of size range. Of course you can find a lot of straight sized stuff here, too. I also checked out their undergarments section and they do have a great, cheaper selection of shapewear and hoisery- including Spanx. I picked up an "originally" $96 shapewear slip (seriously, who would pay that much to begin with?) for a ridiculous $20. They have a lot of cute sleepwear stuff, too. They also have things that look like they were more built for the Rack itself and have never set foot in a Nordstrom Proper. For instance, they had a wall-o-bath-pampering items. I picked up a much-needed bath pillow for $9- probably really the only thing I felt like I overpaid for. Their mens section was pretty expansive as well and looked fantastic for guys in need of nice suits for a cheap suit price. The shoes can be hit or miss, but you can expect to pay cheaper than even DSW and in some clearance cases, Payless. This store definitely requires some digging on your part. If you're just looking to do a quick in and out and come home with a completely new outfit, take some time. The racks contain some hidden treasures (and also hidden disasters you can post to Facebook). The staff is really friendly, too. I didn't feel pestered, but I also didn't feel like they would be annoyed with me if I asked them where I could find a particular section. The cashier was really sweet and we bonded over sweaters in the dryer. All in all, you can expect a decent shopping trip here, if you know where and how to look. read more

Horrible, Insulting, & Harassing Experience! My coworker & I went to Nordstrom Rack off Research this past Saturday. They were so busy that they changed the male/female dressing rooms to unisex. This wasn't that bad until a woman questioned a male as to why he was in the woman's dressing room. This man was in the dressing room with a 13 year old being inappropriate. Apparently, she was very upset. During this time I was in the dressing room. My coworker came in the dressing area to see the dress I had tried on and offered input. After about 2 minutes, he stepped out of the dressing room area. Shortly after, he text me saying he was being asked to leave. I walked out of the dressing room to learn that my coworker was approached by 2 managers on duty, one being Ronald Jean. Ronald had grabbed my coworker's shoulder in an aggressive manner and asked him to leave. Apparently, the same appalled woman from the dressing room had complained to the loss prevention manager and pointed out my coworker as the person who said the inappropriate comment about the 13 year old. Not only had Ronald handled the situation in a harassing manner, it was insulting, embarrassing, and degrading. After my coworker called Ronald's manager, Margaux Deshner, she said there was nothing she could do and offered a sarcastic apology. Is this the way customer's should be treated? Are we not the bread and butter of their business? Now, I understand that we don't want inappropriate comments going on in a dressing room, especially about 13 year old. However, a customer should always be given the benefit of the doubt- NOT accused right off the bat! There were several issues and legalities that will be dealt with appropriately. For one, harassment- not to mention being falsely accused and slandered. Surely this department store has more just policies in place. Needless to say, we will never shop here again and will be letting others know of our negative experience. read more

You can find good deals here if you're lucky. There is a good selection of nice, well-made dress shirts. As far as higher-dollar items, you might occasionally come across a marked-down Hickey Freeman or even a Canali suit. Even at 60% off, I don't shell out that kind of money for clothes, but the option is there. There are some nice shoes, too, both casual and fancy. That said, it seems that they gravitate away from actual "nice" clothes, and more toward trendy "guido" clothes. This means a lot of Ed Hardy, Affliction, English Laundry, and other shirts in which skulls figure prominently into the designs. To my knowledge, they don't sell orange spray tan, but that's ok--they do sell brand-name fade sunglasses, which are essential for protecting your eyes from the sun while you wait behind a velvet rope on 5th street at midnight. read more

Great place to find designer jeans, dresses, blouses, and shrugs. I love getting pieces here because i can find high quality threads for very low prices! Their female accessories are also plentiful and diverse. My partner and my picky male friend also shop here for religiously and with prejudice. They offer a great selection of fine male shirts, hats, pants, shorts, and briefs read more

My favorite shopping spot in Austin. Love this place. This is my go-to shop in Austin when I need to find clothes. They have designer brands, but the pricing won't give you sticker shock. Granted, it's still a little pricey, but for the brands you are getting it's definitely reasonable. Another thing that makes this place great is how frequently they change out their inventory. If you like something, buy it, because it may not be there when you go back. My advice? Get a Nordstrom Rack card. Whether it's connected to your debit account or you can go the credit route. It is incredibly easy to rack up points here and then you get Nordstrom notes (a gift card to the store). Glad to have it so close to me! read more

Dirty, employees are rude. I usually love Nordstrom rack but I'll go out of my way to go to a different location than this one.

Me fascina(fascinated) this place, so much variety of great brands, good prices. I go in for one thing or just browsing, my credit card ends up full :):) Very organized, clean, lots of staff to help, trendy stylish merchandise. The shoes here are AMAZING!!! Friendly people and staff. Smily faces, people are happy to be shopping at such good prices. Located on a great place, La Panera is close so I can have my coffee soy latte with whip cream, YAY!!! And Whole Foods next door, grocery shopping for the home, as good as it gets. read more

Love Nordstrom and love the Rack even more. There is so much to choose from, it takes a patient person to dig through everything to find an amazing deal. I've never found a once in a life time deal here, but I hear about people finding it all the time. The parking has gotten much better since the other Whole Foods open down the street. There is a great selection of shoes and purses. I love the return policy here as well as the people that work here are so friendly and nice. read more

First-time visit to a Nordstrom Rack store. Don't have any complaints about the merchandise. BUT: A young woman and her boyfriend had a PIT BULL in the store! Don't tell me this was an "emotional support" animal! Personally, I don't think ANY animals should be in a store, but...a PIT BULL?? Looked around for a staff member to report it to, but didn't see anyone on the floor. Won't be coming back. read more

I come to Nordstroms Rack for the following items: 1.) Room fragrance - wow. they are unlike others. Thankfully, these items are usually very expensive so getting them at the Rack keeps them in my budget. 2.) Plus Size Clothing - I was lucky to go in on a day with a 25% discount. I love getting cute clothes cheaper! 3.) Purses - if you can find one you like, it is worth looking here for a discount read more

I finally got around to checking the new Rack out, and was really happy with it. I appreciated the layout and organization, finding it easy to look for particular things I wanted, as well as browse the sale racks. Per usual of discount/department stores, I was overwhelmed by the shoe section, so I spent most of my time in the clothing racks. Besides, I didn't really feel the discount on shoes was deep enough. During both my visits to the dressing room, I went straight in, despite the number of people in the store. Speaking of that - while there were a lot of shoppers, I never felt crowded. I think it goes back to their thoughtful organization and setup. It usually takes a while before I have the disposable income to visit the Rack, but I look forward to visiting this store again...some time. read more

I love Nordstrom rack! Only place in the world to buy amazing shoes at a great discount!!! This is like marshals for people with better taste! But it's also like Neiman Marcus for people with better taste! I love you Nordstrom rack thank you for everything, including my $600 Tory Burch boots I gotFor $150. I don't understand why people expect to get treated the same way at Nordstrom rack as they do at Nordstrom. It's like going to target and thinking you're at Tiffany's. I'm sorry but it's a different business and you don't get to get your ass kissed all day long like you do at the big store. That's why it's so much cheaper and why you have to wait in line and why you have to help yourself. Grow up, ladies.!!! Don't be so bitchy about a store! read more

It will take a little bit of scavenging to find clothes that you like. Most of the clothes arent in the right size locations from so many shoppers here moving things around, so I am used to just looking at every rack in the women section. I do like the shoe selections here for the brand names and the organization in the shoe dept is great. My boyfriend enjoyed shopping here and was able to find jeans and shoes for himself quite easily. On that note, he wears a size 14-15 and there actually is a good selection of shoes here for those sizes that most other places do not. When we go shoe shopping for him, most places will only have about a few shoes (usually quite ugly) in those sizes. read more

I need to write an update for Nordstrom Rack. My husband had to find a new suit in a pinch for a funeral, and we went on a Friday. Not only did one of NR's workers help us tirelessly to figure out a good fit (my husband had never bought a suit before, only received not-quite-right-fitting hand-me-downs), find pants that worked with the separate blazer we picked out, and worked through his lunch hour, he also negotiated with the on-site tailor to do an adjustment overnight instead of it taking the usual week so we could go out of town for this funeral. The total cost for a new blazer and pants by a well-known brand, plus some basic tailoring? $250. Ridiculously amazing. Thank you for your help, TJ! read more

Never-ending supply of Kate Spade. Men's section is well stocked with awesome brands like Ben Sherman. Also LOVED their shoe section. Got lost in it for way too long trying on the abundance of sandals. read more
