This shop is a gem, first time in the store and was greeted immediately. Staff was super helpful and knowledgeable. Didn't know what I wanted and would of walked out not purchasing anything but because they were so kind I ended up truly wanting them to have my business so I purchased a gift card. Thank you Select Skate Shop read more

Love this shop -- everyone is always super friendly. I come in pretty frequently and the dudes that work here have always helped me choose things/informed me on why their products are in the store. I don't think people realize that local skaters work here so they know what's up on the products they sell. Doesn't hurt that a lot of the guys that work there are hot ~~ I love shopping with some eye candy honey!!! read more

Select Skate Shop - this store is so cute loveeee - Skate Shops Near Me - Houston, Texas

The team that works here are super helpful and kind to their customers. I was instantly greeted as I came in, they answered my questions, showed me some products and easily made a purchase. I asked if they could put the wheels and bearings on the board and they went right to work and had them swapped out in no time. I will def come back and the competition down the street (if you even want to call it that-Soundwaves) will never have my business. read more

I am 45 and haven't skated in 20 years. My board was from 1995. During lockdown, I've taken up skaing in my parking garage. landed a shove it and was so stoked, I couldn't stop thinking about skating and had to have a modern era board. I went in yesterday got hooked up with some serious upgraded technology for an amazing price. The young man working was extremely helpful, nice, and knew his stuff! Gave me an amazing deal on a whole board setup, including shoes (half price vans) and set it all up ready to rock. Skated so much last night on my new rig, I cannot move my legs today. I feel 20 yrs younger and have once again started enjoying this amazing sport from my youth. So good for your cardio, agility, balance, etc... Their select board brand is priced great too and with the independent trucks and bearings/wheels....skates like butter. Thanks select! I'll be back and I'll also be sending all my friends your way. Cheers! read more

After hearing a bunch of good things about this shop I decided to check it out. Went in thinking I wouldn't actually get anything, because I've gone in to skate shops before and felt unwelcome. These dudes are not only knowledgeable about what they do, but they are down to help you get there. Super sick shop with a bunch of awesome merch and a really tight staff. read more

"Awww yeahhhhh" This has become one of regular spots to pick up some exclusive goods that are hard to come by. They've got it covered from top to bottom for the local skaters to the Houston sneaker heads. One of the few stores to sell Only, Supreme and Kandy Kruisers. If somebody wants to get me a christmas present this will be a good spot to stop by. read more

The staff was chill and answered any questions i had about the products i was buying.

Dropped over $300 on a board there last week. Came in today to talk with the blonde dude at the counter about some more options and just to talk about skating, etc. The dude was about as rude as they come. He'd rather just sit at the counter and watch his skate videos and text rather than help out customers who have money to blow. I found myself asking questions to dead air and dirty looks. So needless to say, I won't be spending any more money there. I was so stupid to spend anything there to begin with. There are far, far better skate board shops in town with friendlier service and a much better selection than this place. read more

I came in to try on some shoes and get a new setup. I was helped the entire time and had good conversation with Zach. I'll definitely come back when I need a board or shoes. The vibe was good and the selection more than I expected. Cool shop in the loop I'd go to again to support local. read more

Great shop and very helpful staff..............was looking to set my son up for the nearby skate park and got great advice and service. Resonable prices as well. Highly recommend!!! read more

Select is now across the street from where Dream Merchant and Rattlesnake Skate used to be - so you know they follow in the tradition of chill skate shops in Trose, last one being the Source where Anvil is now at - SLCT is known for their well thought out, hand picked prod, their clever attention to detail - Their shop decks and shop brand gear have attracted a modest cult following and are probably the most popular items they sell, which they do sell out surprisingly fast - also they have the best shoe selection (pun intended) in Houston - Nike - Converse - Tasteful Etnies, Es reboot for the skate geeks, more Huff than u can shake an elephant wrench at - Oh, and what about the team? Basically only the most watchable kids in Houston will make the cut, and the shop is a kinda incubator and forum for the local inner loop scene, as the organization also functions as ad hoc micro cinema. While most shops want everything and everything, want to "dominate" the market, take team riders, steal accounts and pander to their aggressively unoriginal goals of "being the best" - Select management is just doing their own thing, providing the type of service that a skate scene like Houston deserves but more often than not, just doesn't get - and that's the vibe that ostensibly is supposed to set skateboarding apart from other sports, but the thing most often over looked in the treadmill dog eat dog sh#t show that is the silly local H-town skate scene - everybody jus wants to rule the world! You're never gonna see Select winning "Best Shop in Houston" in Houston Press - because Select is not the obvious choice for John Q Heineken and their Barbie doll wife who drive in from the Woodlands or Spring to rock the cradle at the Downtown park, get clips of their kids doing their first kick turn so they can post it up on Facebook for their whole family to scene cream over. Select is more kinda underground, alty, sometimes punk, street level shop that is not vehemently always in search for your nine year old's approval! - Select is kinda like the Rough Trade Records of Houston - As Rodney Torres said: "Holdin' it down in the time of the dead" SLCT H-tx inner loop Montrose one hundred thou! read more

This place is great! I went there to buy a gift for my boyfriend, and they had a lot of cool stuff you wouldn't normally find anywhere else on houston. Staff were friendly too, except this one guy there..... Not sure if he worked there of not, but this one random bearded guy with a distinct laugh was staring me down the entire time like he wanted to rape me! Creeper! Other than that guy it was a pleasant experience. read more
