I saw Jennifer drop everything to do it right away and then she gave them 'cost' price, which was almost nothing. I was about to cry I was so moved. I know it literally cost Jennifer money to do that for them, but like all of us, I'm sure she was paid, in other ways. They are great people, I see them donate to the ToysForTots and many other Organizations. Whatever I need - I'm going there.

Build was excellent, and a major bonus, it does not squeak like other horse builds. It took several years to lose the squeak in my last holster from a major builder.

Offering a sweat shield is a major plus, since in the summer, it rides under my shirt, against my skin. I was pleased that this holster needed zero break in time, smooth draws from the start.

My daughter purchased a jacket for me (XL) but the sizing was off and the jacket was too restrictive. I decided to go into the store after Christmas to see what I could find and to be sure that it would fit. Unfortunately, it was after the holiday and the selection was minimal. I returned the jacket and let them refund her credit card. She then sent the credit to me and I held it until this year. I looked on line and saw some very nice NEW items so I placed my order using the XL size from last year. This time the jacket was floating on me and was way too big. I called customer service on Tuesday, returned the jacket on Wednesday and had my new jacket (size Large) by Friday. This thing is absolutely gorgeous and I am totally pleased with the quality.

There's leather by the piece, leather already assembled in a vest, jacket, pants, bags, belts, holsters, dog collars and leashes, plus patterns and kits for wallets, key rings, bags, belts, gun belts, book covers. I also saw shoe soles (cobblers of the world, unite!). There's leather by the piece in colors, but there are also leather dyes and stains if none of the existing colors work, imprinting supplies, tools, buckles, grommets, conchos. . .and more.

Trosa is located on Peters Creek Hwy in the Food Lion strip center at the Clemmonsville exit. It's easy to get to and there's plenty of parking which I love. Right inside the door is their whole furniture section, they have tons of tables, chairs, dressers , etc. they even have a whole section of office specific furniture. The prices are very reasonable. This would be a furniture flippers paradise. Towards the back they have shelves of everything from pillows to whole sets of dishes, sports equipment and the most medical mobility equipment I've ever seen anywhere. I'd say, if you are in need of a walker, a bath seat or portable toilet for someone look here because they probably have it at a fraction of the cost it would be to purchase new or rent. The clothing is grouped all together but they aren't keeping it organized as well as it needs to be. All different sizes were mixed in together and I quickly got frustrated and gave up. Both of us had found an item in the kitchen area we wanted so we headed to check out. The workers were very friendly as well. I'll definitely be checking out Trosa regularly in the future.

Probably better off buying flowers from Trader Joe's Update: They called me back and offered a discount for my next purchase instead of offering to replace the drying flowers. After my experience, why would I buy from here again?? They also admitted that they didn't wrap it in the brown paper because they believe a plain white tie is more festive. I wish they would have contacted me and asked if it was okay for them to change my order. Even flowers at grocery stores come with a plastic wrapping to make it more presentable! I also feel bad for the door dash driver who had to deliver these flowers without a cover. Hope their car didn't get ruined.

They are rarely open. Been here a few times and the guy who is the owners son in law treats customers like crap. He's a pompous ass that doesn't have time for you.

I had shopped with Fleet Feet about 10 years ago but they have since upgraded and updated their location and technology. It sounds like it's best to make an appointment, which I did not do, but happily Lucas was available to work with me right away. First we discussed what I was looking for in a shoe and brands/styles that had worked for me in the past. Then I removed my socks and shoes and stood on something resembling a scale but which actually made a 3-D scan of my feet. I then walked across a black mat on the floor several times, which analyzed my gait and whether I had any "hot spots." After these scans Lucas showed me an analysis of the shape of my foot and gait on a tablet. He then used this information and my sock preference (thin, thick or mid) to select try-on socks and a pair of shoes to try on. He used my feedback from the shoes to select other pairs of shoes. He also selected a pair of inserts to address my feet's needs and I tried on the shoes one with the insert and one without, so I could feel the difference. I tried on four pairs of shoes. The first three all felt good but in comparison the last pair just did not feel right and was quickly eliminated. I knew which pair I liked best so I put that on one foot then tried on each of the remaining two to narrow down to my top two, which I decided to purchase. Lucas brought out all colors of both styles so I could select my favorites. I really appreciated his knowledge and patience and am confident I have purchased the best styles of shoes for the health of my feet and body. Recommend!

They carry "traditional comfort" shoes like Danskos for those whose professions require them to very stylish Pikolinos. They are "boot heaven" come fall and winter. So bottom line, is that they have a range of stylish, well made shoes for any occasion. If they don't have your size or color in stock, they will order it for you. They will also order special colors they don't carry (check out the catalogue in the back). So if you're looking for walking sandals for that trip to Italy, plan ahead because you're sure to fall in love with something and you might even want it in two colors! The customer service is awesome here, Dawn Poole is the manager and she is very knowledgable about how each brand of shoe should fit, and she and will make sure you leave happy. BE sure to sign up for their email list since they have Trunk shows where you can pre-order next seasons shoes and get a discount on your purchases that day (usually 20%!).
