Every time I come here I always find something! A majority of their products aren’t over $15 which is great! The store is also very organized and not overwhelming.

The people were kind but the collection of clothes specifically for men was sparse. Very low supply. Maybe they were in a transitional period but overall underwhelmed. They had one designer item and it was 50 bucks for a dingy shirt.

Some of the items here can be too pricey for its quality, I once saw a Moschino shirt with a hole in the sleeves but it was priced at 130 usd, I would not recommend, they seem to increase their prices for luxury brand names even if they have damages in their clothes..
