    $ 68 with my 10 % discount - not bad .
    Ron W.

    I went here today to pick up a pair of work sneakers. Parking was easy breezy and the staff were all very nice - no hard selling. The only issue was that my top four choices were unavailable in my size 11.5 - I settled on choice number 5, and was given a 10 % discount for being a WSS member - nice value for the money as my budget today was $ 99 or less.

    I get to the store at 9:30 to pick up my RESERVED pair of jordan flint 13's. I ask the front door if the line is for raffle winners and they tell me to line up. I get to the front of line where they tell me i should have gone into the store by 10 to get my pair. They ended up giving away my pair along with saying "im sorry, we fucked up. Now I understand why WSS is the shittiest of all the shoe stores because they have no idea what they're doing. I asked why they didnt have a sign telling people that won to come in and they blamed it on covid-19, like what the fuck does a making a sign have to do with covid-19. Anyways fuck this store Update: I see they respond to certain people regarding issues but this is no biggie for them, please people do not go here, better off going to footlocker, footaction, or champs

    I can't believe it took me so long to find out about WSS. I am very picky when it comes to shoe shopping but now that WSS is in the picture, my shoe game has officially changed. This location is on the north side of Van Nuys and the area itself isn't the greatest but that doesn't hold true for the store. This WSS is HUGE and very well kept. I didn't see many pairs of shoes out of place or on the floor which made my shoe searching process a lot easier and it made the store feel less cluttered. Perhaps the best thing about WSS is their prices. You can't find name brand shoes for a cheaper price and they usually have a deal running or coupons available. Last but not least, the employees here are VERY helpful and friendly. One in particular named PETER took the time to personally show me numerous pairs of shoes and described the benefits and disadvantages of each one. Oh, and get this, PETER is the Security Officer! He wasn't receiving any sort of commission from my sale yet he still took the time to make sure I left completely satisfied with my experience. If you're looking for a massive shoe selection with deals on top of deals, ask Siri for directions to WSS in Van Nuys.

    The shoes I would have bought this trip

    Dear Mr. Alon, My father's day was ruined today shopping at your store in Van Nuys on Sepulveda. I was shopping with my son on what has become a quarterly excursion down the Blvd. from our home in Sherman Oaks. My son is almost 9 and grows very fast so we like to regularly measure his foot to make sure he wears the proper size. Today was different it had been longer than normal because of the pandemic. He was a size a 1/2 bigger, we need all new shoes. While trying on one of the $120.00 pairs of nikes I planned on purchasing for him I put my sunglasses down on the sneaker display for a moment. Sure enough when I was distracted by my son and mask, someone swiped them. I immediately informed the closest associate of my situation and she walked to the front counter but did not return. I approached the security guard at the exit door and told him what was going on, he was very slow to react and seemed like he didn't want to be bothered. I was waiting for someone to do or acknowledge something. I explained that it happened a moment ago in plain view of your cameras.I pleaded with them to review the tape to see if the person was still in the store and maybe planned on turning them in on their way out. I didn't want to have any conflict, I didn't want to get anyone in trouble, I just wanted and attempt to get my property back. The security guard comes back and says there is no one here who can check cameras and my manger says you should just call the cops. I assure you had I said someone took something of value from your store, or if I put something in my pocket worth $150 maybe someone would have done something but to get the response, "Call the cops yourself" is insulting. I had a pair of size 6 nike 290 running shoes ($125), Nike Jordan, Westbrook basketball shoes ($120) size 6, nike jordan slides ($45), and a pair of 11 1/2 tommy bahamma driving shoes for me. If your team can take a moment to realize I am the exact customer you want to cultivate, disposable income, likes to be on current releases/ new releases, and my son needs new shoes every 3-4 months let alone the sport specific shoes. Rather then take the time to try and accommodate me, your team blew me off. In my frustration I noticed a sign you have hanging from the ceiling asking me to tell you how you're doing with the district's manager name and phone number. I called the number while I was standing there and left a message explaining what had happened only to have the security guard try to correct me when I stated they said there was nothing they could do and I should call the cops. I'm sure you can hear him in the back round on the voice mail. This bothered him and the Assistant Manager very much. The aggressively approached me and try to usher me out of the store. I asked if I could leave the shoes I intended to buy at the counter and they said no we don't hold shoes for customers. Well, I can assure you that is the last time I will attempt to be one. I get that you are a volume discounter and you make your profit on slim margins but the level of awareness, competency, and professionalism displayed by your staff today dumbfounds me on the financial success you seem to be having. That may have been great pre-covid but, I am in the F&B business, and all of our business models are changing. We are moving to either automated fulfillment or catered service to your repeat customers. Your business model seems to be in-between, I'd make some changes quick, I am only one customer but I won't be back and it always just starts with one. Sincerely, Matthew Washton

    OMG! I literally stumbled across his place and I don't know how I'll be able to live without it…read morefrom now on. Yesterday I was driving down victory Boulevard in North Hollywood and I had to go to CVS. I spotted at CVS that I've never been to before and I also saw a Subway sandwich store. I had a coupon for Subway sandwich and I had to go to CVS so I thought this is an ideal location. Nestled in between the queue, was this little tiny boutique with the most beautiful clothing in the window. So of course I had to stop. Let me tell you it was unbelievable. First of all everything in the store is something I would buy. Which is rare for me because I'm very picky. The merchandise here look like Neiman Marcus or Saks, Fifth Avenue. The merchandise was very high-quality. Very fashionable and very high-quality. What I loved about the merchandise is that it was mostly separate. And because I'm a petite person that is important. But the prices were unbelievable. I couldn't believe that most of the merchandise was $100 or less. Some of the dresses were $150. But most of the merchandise was so reason to be priced that I spent almost $800 without batting an eyelash and got six outfits. Lizzie was delightful. She had several customers, but she made me feel like she was concentrating only on me. She reviewed each out Vet and gave me your honest opinion on whether or not she liked it on me. She wasn't just trying to sell me something. She owns the store. I finally figured out that the Zie was the last part of her name. Duh. Sometimes it takes me a minute. But it won't take me a minute to go back in the future. I'll be back soon. I can't wait to see what's new.

There were times when I worried about it survival. Because being a cowboy hasn't always been popular. And that's what the general store specializes in. Cowboy gear for women, men and children.. Well, like a popularity certainly not the case anymore at the general store. They have incredible merchandise for both men and women and a few for kids. Their selection makes western wear look cool and stylish. There were definitely items in there I wanted to buy. They had some gorgeous clothes for women. Styles to put wranglers as a shame. These clothes are authentic and yet made of great quality fabrics and materials. I don't think I've ever seen a greater selection of cowboy boots for women and kids. The price goes from about $2000 all the way down to $200. So there's something for everyone. The clothing line for women is very western as you would expect. But the quality is absolutely amazing. Service is really funny. The people waiting on you are definitely a throwback from a different era. They most certainly aren't used to servicing women like me, but they did so graciously with a smile. It's kind of like having your grumpy old grandpa waiting on you, but you know he adores you no matter what. When I left, they were all smiling, and it was clear that they were proud to work there. I love the decor, the store and the vintage posters. It's like stepping back in time. Please go visit the general store and all the other merchants along that block. There are some Van Nuys, greatest craftsman and merchandisers and they need to be frequented and honored.

We were mainly here for the Baldur's Gate 3 blind bags for the beautiful oversized d20's but checked out all the other cool stuff they have here! I believe the owner is Mandie and she was super sweet and had great energy when my bf and I dropped by! We managed to pull a Rare (Mizora) and a Rare (Halsin) which was really cool from just buying two packs. They have other cool merch like pokemon, final fantasy, dnd, and even some anime stuff. Highly recommend checking this shop out and supporting local businesses! Great place to buy a gift for anyone. Prices are a bit more than retail but nothing too crazy. Looks like they also have events like card games and art showcases. I know they recently had a Baldur's gate 3 signing which is amazing! Looking forward to dropping by again! IG: @ammysalamii
