Good store. Large selection of shoes. I came to get a pair of addidas superstar that restocked today. The sales reps were all really cool and helpful. I did not get the snobbish attitude impression when U walk in like some sneaker stores in LA. They keep it real! Holler read more

Just wanted to say I've never had a bad moment at Private .. being a LB native and a shoe head I appreciate private being for the city ..

My husband and I have shopped here for over 2 years. The staff is always courteous and helpful. Gus (the owner) is always nice and takes the time to get to really know you. If it's your first time or if you are a frequent customer, you will always feel the love as soon as you walk in the store. We will always shop here due to the excellent staff. We love Private and you will too! read more

I've been going to Private now since hey opened. I miss the days they had in-store raffles for the people that live local. The raffle through the app seems really hard to win because of the congestion of entries they receive. Today there was an in-store LIVE raffle for the Yeezy 750 chocolate which was very fair and legit. 12 pairs amongst approx. 40 people. That's something Proper would never do! Keep it up Private read more

There was people working and no other customer in the store they didn't even ask if I needed help and when I did ask for help from the girl with the glasses she didn't even look like she wanted to talk to me. So I kept browsing and all I can hear and see her do was walk around trying to find a Pokemon. Only reason I stayed to shop was because my brother gave me his store credit receipt. read more

Bought a pair of Nikes and returned them the very next day because the lining was coming thru the holes in the sneaker after wearing them for two hours! They exchanged them with no problem whatsoever. The same thing happend to the next pair!!! They sell defective shoes. Not sure but my guess is they buy them knowing they are defective. $100 for a pair of Nikes and they are coming apart the next day? Come on. read more

Awesome sneaker boutique. I was able to participate in their most recent live raffle for the yzy V2s and I was able to get a pair. Super organized and the store staff were very friendly and helpful. Now I'm ready for the next yzy BW release. Got my tshirt ready!!!!! read more

Ron helped my girl get a great Herschel backpack. He was so nice and accommodating. I wish they gave employees commission! Thanks again!

I'm a NorCal native and moved down here for college. Sneaker boutique Private was the first shop I went to and it's now my go-to place for kicks. The sneaker selection is so much better than your big corporate shops like Foot Locker and Finish Line. Their collection ranges from the newest Jordans to classic shell toe Adidas to comfortable shoes like New Balances and Asics. When I first went here, I was actually surprised that Private was able to get exclusive Nike, Adidas, Reebok, and New Balance sneakers that your typical mall sneaker shops would never get. Besides the sneakers, their clothing and accessory section is on point. Brands ranging from The Hundreds to Huf to Undefeated, it's definitely a place to shop at if you're looking for streetwear apparel. Private also has a nice selection of backpacks, watches, sunglasses, and hats. What separates this store from other sneaker boutiques I've been to is the atmosphere the employees provide. All of the employees are really helpful and attend to whatever you may need. They're also very cool to have conversations with; they all make you feel welcome. I always talk to the manager about the latest sneakers. He's a big sneakerhead himself, so he knows how to cater to the customers with the best sneakers around. If you're looking for a store to buy some real sneakers in Long Beach, Private is the only store I could recommend. read more

Honestly, I like Private a lot. Great customer service, fair "first come - first serve" policy, and a fair selection of different brands. Only bad thing is the phone orders. I wouldn't recommend that if you're trying to get a hot item that is guaranteed to sell out in minutes, you won't get them. read more

Amazing Store. Has all the latest shoe wear and outwear. great costumer service. will definitely take the drive again.(live by West LA) but worth it. read more

Love love love this place. The place is very urban and fresh. Has the latest styles out and there service is great. They are super helpful and treat their customers amazing!! Love this place and prices are very fair! read more

Highly recommended for raffles. Private is very transparent in the process, which is refreshing, considering many stores these days engage in shady backdoor practices. In addition to their mobile app raffle, they also held a live raffle for the Yeezy Boost 750. There were 12 pairs for about 40 heads, which are great odds considering the hype and exclusivity of the shoes. To make things even more fair the owner had random people draw from the box. Overall it's a great process, and while I'm reluctant to write this review out of fear that more people will come to the raffles, I can't help but put in a good word for the store. Highly preferred over their crosstown competitor. read more

Super legit store since day one, show nothing but mad love to his customers. Gus is a really cool guy, very friendly. Every shoe releases he does, is a legit raffle run, and it's LIVE! Highly recommend that you guys go and check out the store. read more

Everyone is so friendly and the selection is amazing!! Great kids section too!

I literally wanted to walk in here to buy a backpack for school. Little did I know that the manager was coming from Millenium and coming with some really hard shoes and collabs! Really excited to see a store like this in Long Beach and so surprised by the exclusive products they have. I feel so bad making them more famous and harder for me to get my size but they deserve my peer review. So yes 5 stars in service and product deliverance! read more

Outstanding service James was great and did not try to up sale me or sell me shoes I did not need.

Shout out to @private.sneakers for the yeezys. Everyone watching football we out here winning legit raffles.

My first visit at private was a spectacular one ! I go to cal state long beach so having private so close is really convenient. They have all the "in" shoes and clothes any college student would love this store. It is a definite must go ! read more

Great spot for kicks and apparel....Private seems to always carry the latest trends in footwear and fashion, including kids shoes. When I'm not getting kicks for myself, I'm often at Private getting my kids some shoes...friendly staff and great spot in general.... read more

Best shop for the latest kicks hands down! Everything from the newest J's and Nike's in some of the most unique color-ways to my personal favorite, Vans & Chuck's. They also have a nice selection of Oakley shades as well as G-Shock watches which doesn't hurt either...I can literally spend close to an hour looking at all the merchandise this place has to offer and it never gets old, love that its right in my neck of the woods too! Keep up the good work... read more

Best sneaker shop outside of LA. Always the latest drops. Great selection of shoes & clothes.

So glad I found Private, been shopping here for a few months and have been nothing but satisfied. As a self-proclaimed sneakerhead, this is a great place to come. They have all the newest and hottest releases on sneakers, the latest in clothing and everything in between. The staff is also wonderful, everyone is super nice and helpful, especially Gus. If you are into sneakers, make sure you come to Private and see for yourself, you will not be disappointed. read more

Just want to give a big thank you to private. You can tell how much pride the owner has in his business and how much he cares about his customers. Some people may try to claim wrong doings by the owner but he is a stand up and honest guy. Every time I've stopped by the shop I've been greeted with a smile and a "how can I help you?". I will continue to support local small businesses like this one and you've got a loyal customer for life. read more

Recently took my husband to find some shoes for Xmas. We live about 45 minutes away from Private but it was well worth the drive. They had a great selection and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We ended up buying two pairs. I've already recommended people and it's only been a day. We will definitely be back :) read more

Good spot great stuff met the manager and have seen the owner. Wich means they are pretty legit. He is hands on Wich is good. There is one employee who is a bit snotty. I don't pay attention. But I would recommend this place to customers looking for exclusive shoes and clothes. Pretty nice and easy priced. Sign up for rewards. It helps with 10% here and there ! read more

Gus and Private are super legit. I can literally say I've been going to this store since Day 1, and it's awesome to see how much the store has grown. Gus seems to gets a lot of slack when it comes to the raffling of very exclusive and limited shoes, but people seem to forget that raffles are all CHANCE / LUCK. When the store first opened, I used to win raffles all the time, but once Private grew, I won less and less. Do you see me complaining about that fact? No, because I understand how raffles work and I know that you can't win all of them. People like to accuse Gus of backdooring pairs, but he's the LAST one to do that. He already has his own extensive collection of very rare and sought after pairs, so why would he need that extra cash on the side for that? Not necessary. I've also noticed people complaining on the fact that the coworkers seem "stuck up." Go to any other "streetwear" store in Long Beach/Los Angeles/New York and see how you're treated there. It's usually the same or even WORSE. Don't take it so personally, this is just the "culture" that comes with the scene. All in all, Private is awesome retail location with a lot of space, and offers a ton of variety with clothes and sneakers. The owner Gus is a really genuine dude and deserves all the success and credit for building the store from the ground up! read more

Good stuff here. Staff was nice, friendly and attentive as soon as I got there. Bought a g-shock and I asked to see almost all of them and put them on to make my decision the guy there didn't rush me and told me to take time. I'll definitely be back for Black Friday as he said they're going to have some good deals. read more

Private is a real cool street wear/skate/sneaker spot in LB. They got great selection of clothing and sneakers from Jordans/Nikes to New Balance, Pumas, Asics, Sauconys and Vans. All of the staffs here are always friendly and helpful! The Customer service is probably the best I've come across for a sneaker/Street wear boutique. They let you look around without bothering you and try to make a sale but they let you know that they are there to help. The manager Gus is a real cool dude. I'd come by during my break and after having lunch in the shopping center and chat it up some times about up coming releases. If you're in the area I would definitely come in and check it out. read more
