I was very underwhelmed at Blue, Goodwill's "boutique" of supposedly nicer clothing brands. I…read moredidn't see anything that I haven't seen in regular Goodwill retail stores. The price tags were too high (some were even higher than you could have found them at retail for), the selection was awful, and several items were very worn, out of style, or even damaged. I felt like everything was XL, next common was the size Smalls, then Larges, ending with the elusive Mediums. Everything is organized by size, but the method is extremely confusing. The employee who was there was nice, but for half of my visit, I couldn't figure out if she was an employee or customer. After walking around trying to find size mediums, looking baffled I'm sure, I finally asked her if she worked there. I asked her where mediums were and she pointed in a vague direction. I eventually figured out that each rack was a different size, or at least I think? Other racks were sorted by color. Maybe eye catching but not practical. When I asked if they had any size 6 shoes, she acted like I was a unicorn with two heads and told me they never ever got a size 6 in. (I've never had trouble finding size 6 shoes, ever.) The store isn't super easy to get to, and make sure you bring some change for the parking meters. Avoid the morning and evening commutes because you can easily get stuck in Downtown Akron among all of its construction. I can recommend 5 local thrift stores that have better items, prices, and services than Blue. It's a good idea in theory, just very poorly executed. (Thinks it's because I'm a size medium with size 6 feet? )
