I’m a total chicken when it comes to specialty clothes stores. Hell, most of the clothes I own were bought at Walmart(or some comparable establishment) or at specific events… so for me to even step foot in this store was a little nerve wracking, and immediately after walking in I felt completely out of place. As another reviewer mentioned, the staff were so busy with their own conversation they didn’t even seem to notice my presence, the music was horrendous(though I guess some people must be into that sort of thing… I just can’t imagine who), and the clothes? Well… you know the old addage, I may not know art, but I know what I like. That’s me with fashion, and what I saw I definitely didn’t like. The whole store had this weird sort of «sort by label» type layout that made it incredibly hard to look for any one type of item, and the selection was incredibly mis-leading, as I would see rack upon rack of something, only to find out there were really only 2 or 3 styles that they seemed to have a billion copies of. The t-shirt selection was particularly depressing, as 90% of them featured the labels logo so prominantly, I felt like I was being expected to pay(rather large sums, no less) to use my chest as advertising space. After over a half hour digging through shelves and flipping through racks managed to find ONE item in the entire store I would ever be caught dead wearing, and it literally cost over 10 times what I would ever consider paying. If this is what I lose out on by shopping at department stores, I think I can do without.

This is a men’s clothing store with identity issues. They seem to be going after a premium customer with their designer labels but they carry lower end items as well and the lack of customer service does not match this type of store either. I got to the mall early on the 27th to beat the crowds and therefore was the only person in the store. There were 3 employees working who were chitchatting at the back of the store. I barely got a hello. The layout is a little mixed. It looks like most of the brands are kept together but where you might be looking at a $ 300 pair of jeans on one table, there’s a $ 50 pair on the next. Normally I love a good selection, but with this store I just don’t get it.
