I stumbled upon this brand at a boutique. I purchased a shirt and my husband loved it. We were…read moregoing up north and wanted to visit their store in Santa Barbara. Very relaxed environment. Beautiful store. Friendly and laid back employees. We ended up purchasing a few shirts and a pair of jeans. They hem the pants and keep your measurements on file so if you want to buy online in the future you can. All in all a great product soft and durable fabrics - really high quality stuff. My husband gets lots of compliments. This place is a gem.

I originally saw Ace Rivington on social media and, honestly, I just decided out of the blue to…read moregive a pair a try. I figured I'd see what they were all about. Fast forward a little while and I'm now at eight pairs. I wear jeans every day, and these have quickly become the only jeans I want to wear. Up until last week, my favorite pair was the Carpenter. I had been waiting for months for the Easy Riders to come back in stock, and when they finally did earlier this month, I was able to get the pair I'd been waiting for. I got them last Wednesday, and I'm not kidding when I say I haven't worn anything else since. They're that good. The Italian denim feels amazing, and the fit and quality are just on another level compared to anything else I've owned. And I have to mention Beau. I've talked with him a couple of times, and this guy is an absolute rockstar. He's incredibly knowledgeable, super helpful, and just genuinely one of the nicest people you'll ever deal with. You can tell he really cares about the product and the people who buy it, and that makes a huge difference. It's pretty crazy to think I randomly saw these on social media, decided to try one pair, and now I own eight. I wear them every day, and I honestly don't see that changing anytime soon. If you're thinking about trying Ace Rivington, just do it. You might end up like me with a closet full of them.

I picked up a pair of shoes that I really love, and the guy working there was friendly, helpful, and made the whole experience easy. Definitely recommend stopping in and checking this place out if you're down in the Funk Zone. It's always nice to find a cool local shop and support a local business. Go in, find something you like, and help support the locals!

I am now a proud owner of my first Bertucci watch, Kuhl Mountain Grown shorts, Art Landau graphic T-shirts, and Craft & Lore accessories. Definitely a must-stop shop for the latest designs of men's pants, jackets, and a very cool selection of shoes/boots, jewelry, sunglasses . . . pretty much "Manly-Man" stuff. Located at the end of Helena Avenue, across from the Blue Water Grill and the backside of Surf N Wear's Beach House, and tucked in between Skyenna Wines and Lighthouse Skateshop.

I've discovered so many brands here that I genuinely love and wear on repeat, including Shaina Mote, B Sides, Cawley, Flore Flore, Hai, &Daughter, and Ichi Antiquités. They also carry Living Libations, a line of organic, pure, renegade beauty products that aligns perfectly with the shop's thoughtful ethos. I'm especially obsessed with the Frankincense Best Skin Ever. Yes, it's an investment, but the pieces are exceptionally well made and designed to last. This is slow fashion and conscious consumption done right. I don't come here to splurge all the time. I'm intentional about whether I'll truly wear something, and when it makes sense, I go for it. Other times, I just browse and get inspired, so don't let sticker shock stop you from checking it out. The staff is always helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable without ever feeling pushy. They also offer a one-time store credit or exchange for eligible items within 10 days of purchase. All sale items are final. Pro tip: subscribe to their mailing list for some sweet deals here and there. A must-visit if you appreciate independent designers, timeless style, and quality over quantity.

It was easy to find and they also have ample parking being away from the main town. I was able to snag a parking spot on the weekend but if it gets busy they also have valet parking which I appreciate. The grounds of the Post are really beautiful. It's a lovely outdoor space to shop and drink your coffee or tea. The stores are very visually appealing and the aesthetic gives clean and *money lol. But really, let's just call it what it is. To shop here you have to be spending a pretty penny. I won't rate less stars because of this - I just want to acknowledge for fellow readers this is not an outlet, there are no deals - this is a spot for luxury shopping and that's A okay. It's a place I'll gladly come to look around but it's out of my price range. Aside from the shops I love that the Post holds space for one of my favorite new restaurants, Ospi! They also have a coffee shop and meal prep store here if you are looking for something more on the go and small. But as far as restaurants go it's super cool that they have Ospi here.

The Main Courtyard features a comfy outdoor seating space, surrounded by some amazing greenery, and features a very colorful and historic fountain at the center. Designer clothing shops for men, women, and children, as well as a jewelry designer, leather bags and belts, the Leone Hair Salon, and my new favorite Italian Restaurant, Ospi. Staff at all the shops were were courteous and welcoming. And reasonable Valet parking is also available. Was so much fun to be greeted right away by Tedde and her Garden Shop, Scenery Floral. Tedde is a Curator, Art Historian, and Stylist. She has a nice selection of plants, pottery, garden tools, and so much more. So nice to see the beauty in this small and welcoming outdoor space. Although we did not have a lot of time to truly explore, we did walk in and out of several shops and definitely look forward to bring family and friends for some serious Retail Therapy. We also got the chance to meet stylist Kadel and tour his store, The Optimist, which has an incredible selection of men's clothing. And winding down the day with a late lunch at Ospi. Some delicious wines and cocktails, and Italian Pastas and Pizza. Such a fun spot to eat Breakfast, Lunch, Happy Hour, and/or Dinner.

Hats, blouses, dresses, lots of denim, undergarments and bathing suits, and shoes. You're new outfit will make you the best dressed at a beachside shindig, a boho pool party, a western wedding, a Santa Barbara vacation... you name it! Don't forget there's a men's side too, your man will be looking hot af in his Santa Barbara style clothing. They have super sick boots, flannels, button ups, band tees for the men too. Not only clothing, there's beautiful handmade jewelry by the lovely owner Erica. I have a labradorite teardrop necklace and a beaded labradorite choker that she made. I wear both every day, and actually rarely take them off lol The choker was a bit to long so she personally fit it to my neck perfectly. The staff is always super fun, helpful, and welcoming. Oakley is always a great help and offers great garment suggestions. I always seem to buy what she recommends on me! I can spend hours in here shopping there's lots to browse and staffs good vibes keeps me around even longer. Thanks ladies!

I also knew a lot of people had bad experiences there. Last visit I went by on bike. I couldn't find a bike rack anywhere near the store. I asked the owner if I could bring it inside. She immediately shouted no and launched into a speech about all her stuff in her store. She told me I could leave my bike propped against a tree out front. This is terrible advice. Anyone in Santa Barbara knows you leave a bike- ANY bike, much less an expensive bike leaning aguante something, that bike is no longer yours. Totally fine if she doesn't want the bike in her spacious store. She could suggest the closest bike RACK so the bike could be locked. Lots of people bike in SB so I'm sure I wasn't the only one needing a little direction to park and shop. Her rude attitude and irresponsible advice- plus ridiculous prices, no thanks!! Will never come back here. Tons of super rad boho stores like Dylan Star and Sirena with nice staff to spend at instead.

Although we usually have a pleasant shopping experience, this time it was very lackluster. The store wasn't busy at all. There were maybe four or five other people in the store besides us. NOT one person greeted us when we walked into the main area of the store and yet there were THREE employees all behind the counter just socializing with one another. The one time any of the four of us were even acknowledged by an employee was when my husband had merchandise in his hands. We're going to skip this place next time and spend our money supporting other businesses.

Very friendly folks at the register. The young man that rang me up gave me some food recommendations in the area. Happy camper I get to ride back to SD in my new Vuori fit!
