Despite this Vans store being a bit smaller than others I usually frequent, I was able to find awesome shoes and clothes for a steal! It's so hard to pass up a buy one get one free sale!

So this was like opening a closet door and suddenly you're in Narnia…read more The walls are lined with row after row of everything apparel Wyze you could possibly want and they have unusual items. This is nothing like going to a local feed store or shoe store to find hats and shoes and jeans. They have so much more, the boot selection is even better than what I've seen in Nevada casinos and large western shops. In other states. I was extremely impressed with the accessories for hats, necklaces earrings clothing options are also impressive. The staff was very nice. Nobody swarmed us or bugged us to make a sale. They were very hands-off until you asked a question. Then they were polite and helpful. The prices were better than expected. Everything is so expensive anymore. It's a little scary to look at Price tags. I was able to get two hat, bands, a new hat, a brand new Levi sleeveless shirt for my husband's birthday All for 100 bucks incredibly good price considering what we got. I've heard from a few friends that the other locations are equally well stocked. Definitely will be going back here. The only place that has more stuff than this is the triple agent In Salem, Oregon so that's really saying something if you know you know.

Boot Barn is a really cool place! I went in to find a pair of boots, and never having been to Boot…read moreBarn before, was honestly overwhelmed by the huge selection. The front of the store has the conventional "cowboy" boots and hats, ranging in price from "oh, that seems reasonable" to "WOW! I never realized that these were so expensive!". The back of the store has a huge selection of fashionable work footwear, and the middle of the store has many racks of apparel. Boots are arranged by size (just as shoes in a shoe store are), but the signage was easy for me to overlook. After spending a lot of time generally feeling lost, the only on-duty employee came over and provided a HUGE amount of help. She spent a lot of time bringing me boots of various styles and price ranges, various insoles to try them with, and explained to me that they could stretch three different areas of the boots if a liked pair needed a bit of adjustment. I ultimately selected a really nice pair that carried a high price tag, but this truly seems like a one-time investment, so I didn't mind this. I'm really impressed with Boot Barn, and highly recommend it if you're looking for Western wear or Western work shoes or boots. Don't let the toppled wooden horse in the parking lot dissuade you.

It's a true outlet with lots of discounted items - perfect for picking up layering pieces in various colors. Of course they also have jeans, and now a days, they are offered in a wide range of styles and sizes. Straight, wide, super wide, baggy, barrel (not for me) and slim, skinny. Appreciate that they have moved away from just skinny jeans all day, every day. This outlet mall has never been a destination for me like Woodburn Outlet Mall is - Woodburn has 20X the number of stores - but since I am always driving the Hood River to Portland route, it's definitely worth a stop.

Coach is an affordable "designer" bag so it's usually the first designer bag for many women. The Coach Outlet offers a lower quality bag than their flagship stores so know this going in. They are good bags, great when you want a spot of color and don't want to spend more than $100-$150. They mark the prices WAAAAAY up then offer 50-70% off. The is a very old and everyone-has-caught-onto-this "sales" technique. It's so 20 years ago! No one really thinks you are giving them 70% off on every single bag on some random Monday in the summer. Just put the darn price on the bag, and if you must, do a "compared to" as a reference. The constant changing of prices and discounts to arrive at the same net price is so annoying!! To demonstrate how complex it is, all of the salespeople carry calculators. When was the last time you went to a store and to determine the price of an item the staff had to figure it on a calculator? That is just ridiculous. The only real bargain to be found is when you find a purse that has the same 50-70% that every handbag in the store is receiving that day and it has an additional 20% off because it's on clearance. That's a deal! It's the only way I will buy anything here because these bags are a lower quality leather and craftsmanship, so price for me has to equal "worth what paid for." Once in a great while there will be a bag or two from the flagship store, think Coach at Pioneer Square, and it has the same 50-70% discount. That is a real bargain. On my last stop in I bought a cream colored crossbody bag with some crystal Daisys that gave it personality, making it stand out from the traditional conservative bags Coach is known for. Supposedly it was $398 which was NEVER believable or a reality. After 70% and another 20% the bag cost about $92, which I felt was a fair price and the bag is now mine. The only thing more annoying than the insultingly jacked up prices is the annoying salespeople who swarm when you enter. - Hi, have you ever been here before? - Here's a coupon for 70% off everything in the store. - Are you looking for something specific? - Can I help you find something? - Did you know we are having a sale? Noooooooo! Make it stop!!!!!!! I don't need a coupon, everything is drastically on sale every single day! Let me wander, if I need help I will ask. Other reviewers state they can't find customer service help. Let's trade places! I hate being hounded when I shop or constantly told how great the sale is when it's a gimmick. Rant over. I'll continue to pop in a few times a year, as I walk in the store I will politely state that I don't need help, and rush pass the door greeters. I'll shop at my pace seeking out the real deals. And every now and then will come home with a treasure. Get on their email list and when they open up their online site a few times a year, you can shop in peace and know the prices right up front!

At the time of writing this review, the Yelp listing for "Columbia Gorge Outlets by Simon Property…read moreGroup" was closed (I believe somewhat recently). "Yelpers report this location has closed." However, that's not true because we just shopped here. I submitted edits to Yelp to remove "by Simon Property Group" from the business name and reopen the listing. Hopefully, by the time you read this, the listing will be open again. According to a January 25, 2016 article by Chain Store Age, Simon Property Group sold "Columbia Gorge Premium Outlets" to New York-based Time Equities Inc. (TEI) for $28,425,000: https://chainstoreage.com/real-estate/time-equities-acquires-columbia-gorge-premium-outlets-000 Currently, Columbia Gorge Outlets is managed by Norris & Stevens. According to TEI, the 164,236-sf outlet mall "is 87% leased to 37 tenants. All the tenants are national retailers." https://timeequities.com/properties/columbia-gorge-outlets Our group of eight visited Portland for vacation. We stayed in the city and took a day trip to hike in the nearby Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area. We stopped by this outlet mall to pick up some items for hiking. For example, someone bought a shirt from the Columbia Factory Store and another person got shoes (sneakers) from Famous Footwear Outlet. This outlet mall is conveniently located right off I-84 exit 17 (Marine Drive / 257th Avenue) in Troutdale, Oregon. Troutdale is a suburb of Portland. The two cities are about 16 miles apart and both are located in Multnomah County. The outlet mall is about halfway between Portland and where we hiked (Wahkeena Falls). Great location for what we needed. Columbia Gorge Outlets is one of the smaller outlet malls I've visited. The size and look of it is more akin to a typical American suburban shopping center than a sprawling outlet mall. In terms of appearance and amenities, it was pretty standard. Before heading out, a few of us used the restrooms by the mall's offices on the south side of the property. Overall, the property was clean and expectedly peaceful and quiet during our visit on a Friday morning around 10:38am.
