You pay cash in advance. Best to go here on foot parking can be difficult. Not to be confused with the shop out front, you have to walk in through the little mall it's inside on the left you passed the beads for bracelets shop. Good service for a reasonable price. Will definitely come back again.

My daughter and I were visiting from San Antonio for her 10th birthday, and I stopped in hoping to maybe find a dress for my 40th birthday. I ended up finding the most beautiful dress, and my daughter picked out the perfect belt after Victoria suggested adding an accent. She also recommended a gorgeous scarf that made the whole outfit scream, "I'm 40 and I'm here for it!" Victoria and her two amazing interns made us feel beautiful, confident, and so welcomed. They were incredibly sweet to my daughter, and I'm so grateful we stopped in. It made my day and left such a positive impression on both of us. I'll definitely add a photo of the finished outfit when I wear it! They had prices to fit all budgets and the proceeds go towards so much good!

After she left the City, I decided to go get the pin for her birthday in July (if I can wait that long). I called to find out when they'd be open. Victoria, the owner, answered and let me know when to come by. Meeting Victoria in person was a delightful experience as was finding out more about her very eclectic jewel of a business. It's a nonprofit that helps people by giving them a boost up with beautiful clothing at little to no cost. The clothing is all donated, clean, on hangers, and goes to help those in the community to get warm clothing, to interview for a job, or just feel like they can stand up a little straighter. Anyone can come to browse through the myriad of treasures. And, of course, buy something at a good price. All proceeds really do go back into the community.

Shoe Envy shoe guy, you can envy me. Here's why…read more.. So after walking 90 miles from the car to the wine festival and all around the wharf in wooden shoes her bf bought her, my friend needs some shoe relief. They were nice, but not the best for the walking we did. We happened upon Shoe Envy. As soon as we walked in, I saw the shoes for her. Silver blingin tennies. I walked right to them and handed it to her. She was impressed with my shoe-fu. As you can see by the pic, she's only trying one on. Yes, it was the display model. Perfect fit. She immediately bought the pair....well her bf did. Ha ha! Now... there's this cougar watching us with shoe envy, as all of this unfolds. She's got a different shoe that she's trying on. But she says she was debating the one she had and the one we bought. I told her to get both and that she was worth it. So she did! Shoe guy was giving us some 'tude. Perhaps we were being a little louder than his snotty personality would allow in such an upscale shoe store. Or maybe he was pissed that I just sold 3 pairs of $100+ shoes in his store in less than 10 minutes. Hmpft! In the immortal words of Al Bundy, "Envy me. That's my wife.Those are my kids and I sell womens' shoes." Yes Shoe Envy. You can envy me.

I love the look of the store and the shoe styles on display. But on my first visit, the clerk behind the counter was on the phone talking loudly about his business, his problems, and his people. Long enough for me to check out all the men's shoes. Long enough for me to check out all the women's shoes. Long enough for me to stare at him in disbelief, wondering if he was really more interested in talking on the phone than selling some shoes.

Cute little spot! Lots of Z Supply clothing, which I love…read more They have a cute assortment of jewelry (a little pricer than I wanted) and mini perfumes/lotions - I ended up buying some of the mini perfumes, as they're super convenient to throw in a handbag or to take when traveling. I felt that the perfume, lotion and clothing were all priced on par with other businesses. It was only the jewelry with unfortunately, seemed a little out of line. Had it been a little less, I probably would have walked away with some! Worth a stop in if you happen to be visiting the ever-touristy Ghirardelli Square. 2025: 63/100

Plenty of California and SF themed logos, along with humorous and topical art. We picked up two t-shirts and a hoodie. T-shirts are Gildan, and for hoodies they have some less expensive makes, but I went with the more expensive Champion. They apply the decal quickly and service is helpful. It may pay to shop around, but if you are in Fisherman's Wharf, and want to look for great selection, this is an excellent place to start.

No Yelp reviews in the past 2 years? Ok, here we go!…read more Talk about wall-to-wall coverage of t-shirt designs. This store is just jam packed with t-shirts and sweatshirts. And when you've run out of space, there are even more t-shirts. There's not a whole lot of room to maneuver in here so the space feels of a jam packed thrift shop, but with an open wall for an exit. There's no particular theme here as the designs are not limited to anything San Francisco-centric. There are some politically themed shirts, pop culture shirts, and something from every color and size. The guy in the front of the store welcomes you in and we didn't leave until we picked up a long sleeve hooded San Francisco design sweatshirt for $30. It's not going to be cheap, because it's another bay area tourist trap after all.

They also have resale stuff, gently used, and some in store clearance racks, where the deals are over the top. At the SF location they have fabulous store clerks, Paul was so helpful, a natural educator, super kind, he was with me all the way to figure out my needs. He made a wide variety of suggestions for gifts. No snobbery here from any of the staff, as with some high end shops. I will go back time and time again, even though the drive to this shop is 1.5 hours away. I got some good deals as Xmas gifts, and had a wonderful time wandering that part of town for a bite to eat too!

All was well in our world.

Hands down - this place consistently has my great vintage finds (currently tied with Relove in Nob…read moreHill, but this place definitely has more unique pieces). I make an effort to come at least once a month to check out what they have in store. I love that they post frequently on instagram (@vacations4sale) and allow easy online purchase for the items they post. Makes it super simple (dangerously simple) to get awesome pieces on the daily. I will warn folks - it won't have the warm fuzzy feels you get from your classic retail places (or the consistent go-out-of-their-way-to-suggest-pieces vibe you get from the staff at Relove), but their stuff is just so freaking good they could insult me the whole time and I would still come back. Now that I no longer live full time in SF, I see this shop becoming my #1 with the ability to buy and ship items to my new place outside of the city. Also, if you are looking to get fitted for some vintage denim, the woman who was there when I went a couple visits ago (blonde hair, clear framed glasses) hooked me up and pulled some great pieces for me from the daunting wall of denim. I ended up looking for ONE pair and ended up loving and buying three =) Make the trip out to the Tenderloin for this shop! You will not regret it.
