“Shakedown Street is an awesome Grateful Dead head shop slash precious stone jewelry shop with incense stickers fun tshirts , is festival promoting.. one of my??? favorites in Grand Rapids, MI. Ive been shopping since my older friends could drive in middle school in the early 90’s.. it’s the OG headshop of GR check it out and support local businesses fight the oligarchy! ☮️”
“Good people, don't be fooled by the looks of those coming in and out of the store. If you're not a smoker, not the place for you. However, they do have some nice apparel to represent the West Side of GR called 616 West. I've purchased a few things from there, and I love it. Very comfortable clothing. Nice art work on the walls as well.”
“I highly recommend spending an evening with Peter and his crew mixing your own scents. There were 3 of us, lots of laughs and some learning as well. The end result was exactly what I asked for, and the experience was definitely worth the money.It would be a great night out for bridal party, work party or a date!Thanks again for a wonderful experience.”
“So glad we stumbled into this cool little shops in Grand Rapids this weekend and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. The store was full of unique, thoughtfully curated products you don’t see everywhere else , the kind of place where you want to look at every shelf because there’s so many interesting things to discover.
What really made the experience exceptional though was the staff. Incredibly welcoming to every single person who walked in, genuine, and passionate about the city. We ended up getting amazing local recommendations for places to eat, explore, and spend time, and honestly those suggestions completely shaped our weekend in the best way. Every recommendation was spot on and helped turn a good weekend getaway into an unforgettable one.
You can tell this is a business that truly cares about creating an experience, and ambassadors for the city, not just making a sale. If you’re visiting Grand Rapids, this is absolutely a place worth stopping into, for the products, the atmosphere, and the incredible local insight. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town.”
“Hands down the best place to go for unique fashion for men and women from clothes to shoes you can find something not everyone has! He also has a barbershop that caters to men women and children! Highly recommend for not only unique fashion but top customer service. Definitely my favorite place to shop!”
“After getting my coffee, I visited Woosah and was captivated by the energy of the space. The person at the register was incredibly nice and educated us about the artist and the space. You can really tell the artist poured their heart into this project, and it shows. I wish I lived closer so I could be part of this vibrant community. It's wonderful to see artists thriving and helping the community thrive as well.”
“Hot topic is my favorite store. It matches my style so well, I just wish we had one closer to where I live, we had to drive about an hour to get there. The workers were SO nice. I love this place”
“Pretty nice. You don't typically see a place like this in Grand Rapids. Definitely NYC style. I learned about this place on the suggestions page of the Celebrity PA Network's website. Highly recommend.”
“Purchased an upcycled billboard tote from Fresh Thyme last year made by this company, was so excited to see it was both locally made and woman owned! The tote itself has become our #1 used item for running our two kids around. The billboard material one is completely waterproof (great for after swim-lessons and the beach) and it's a great size. I love it so much I just ordered another one. This company is everything I love to see in a business. Thank you!!”
“Beautifully curated collection of locally made jewelry, clothing and gifts. Packed with options with a wide price range. Whenever I go in, I have great conversations with the owner and staff and leave vowing to come back more often.”
“I have shopped here many times and EVERY time I have great success...you definitely want to go shop here! Great service and great choices to choose from...#tapin”
“Frenchie the owner and his wife were so nice. I came back to pick up a nice white tee shirt for my dad. There clothes are really really nice. Thanks guys. Sincerely Christopher”
“I love this store it is primarily a man's shopping store but they do sell women's clothing.
The main thing I remember from this, and no laughing this does show my age, are in the 90s when all we had was dial-up internet I'm buying online was not a thing yet one looked forward to receiving their favorite monthly clothing magazine in the mail and among several one of them was Orvis.
I have to admit walking through this store brought back so many memories I had Beyond even thought about in 25 years.... thanks God now I really feel the old!”
“They have wonderful vintage pieces! They are so welcoming and so sweet ! I love the prices and it’s very affordable for the vintage items they sell !! 10/10 check them out !”
“Came in to exchange some snowboard boots and couldn’t of asked for better customer service. Marcus was friendly, knowledgeable and just all around a cool guy. Give this guy a promotion or raise!”
“Love Lands End. Been purchasing from them for over 40 years. Recently purchased 3 sets of sheets to use as gifts for grown kids in the future. Then saw that I could get them for a savings of $20 per set. I called to see if I could get a price adjustment. Was told that since it was over one week since order I couldn’t get a price adjustment but that I could return and reorder. I can and will do that but it is inconvenient for me and costly for them to process a return”
“Run and go get their jeans all on sale right now super great deal!! I saw a girl at a different store and fell in love with her jeans she had on. I asked her where she got them she told me Aeropostale so I had to go get me the same exact pair. I'm telling you they are so cute!! A distressed kinda faded slightly bell bottom high rise jeans. I got them pair of jeans and a cute crop top shirt and only pair $30 for the both. All jeans are on sale!!”
“The manager at the Buckle in Woodland Mall was exceptional. That is what real service is. I came leave to pick up my rock revival jeans and not only did they give me the jeans an hour ahead of when they opened but they did not charge me for delivery of the second pair that had not arrived yet with Federal Express. He listens to customers and knows what it takes for a repeat customer. Thank you.”
“I’m so glad we have a store like this in our community. I had a great conversation with Marta when I stopped in yesterday and bought a super comfy organic cotton cardigan. This store represents the mindset shift that is so desperately needed around clothes, for our health, for the planet, and for workers’ rights. Clothing is an investment that should be chosen carefully and made to last using natural materials and planet-conscious production methods. Garment workers around the world have been abused for far too long, being paid so little for their skill and labor and working in unsafe conditions. We all bear responsibility for changing this and I believe we can do it. Thank you, Clothing Matters, for offering a local place where we can educate ourselves, get creative, and build a better world!”
“Super cute clothes! They also have a wide variety of jewelry, gifts and other accessories. This would be a great place to shop locally for a gift too! Overall, this lovely shop is amazing and it's my new favorite! I got a couple bracelets for friends and they loved them, I love mine too, and my dress and blouses!”

“Really cute place, small but had great items, bought a couple dresses quite unlike any of my other dresses. Great prices, great selection, great staff. My only thing is the mannequin by the changing room makes it hard to close the curtain without a gap.”
“I am a true 3x. I went in today after eating Maru and getting some LaBon. I bought the cutest, most supportive, and softest sports bra from her today. I was a little nervous to take my kid in with me but there are chairs with books & he loves to read. I will for sure be back and I hope more plus size items will be restocked soon. Very cute store, especially if you work in a school. The clearance is dope as well.”
“Always a great place to stop by to see if I can find a deal on good quality clothes and shoes for the family! I don’t usually leave empty-handed. I prefer it over Marshall’s /TJ Maxx for sure.”
“Very cute shop. Went in on a recommendation from another mom and teen duo. Traveling in the area and stopped in—both my teenage daughter and I enjoyed the selection. Very friendly staff, nice array of items. Love shopping small and female and minority owned.”
“We discovered that if you own a NorthFace product that deteriorated you can return it for an exchange. Last week we took a jacket back but discovered that in order to return it, we had to go onto our computer and fill out all the paperwork. Because we are not 100% computer savvy, we asked the clerk, Nicholas, if he would do it for us — and he did! That is what we call excellent customer service. Thank you, Nicholas.!”
“My new go-to clothing store, as they are one of the few designers that fit me perfectly and comfortably. This location is amazing, as it’s always organized, clean, stocked and staffed with great people. I check in every few weeks to see the latest styles and sales, as the app is a great companion.”
“Assalamualaikum, we Love this place already!!!! First time there and was welcomed in with great customer service, seen many products that have many health benefits, great prices and offers so much information for Islamics. We will return!!”
“Rich is a hard worker and makes smaller customers like us feel like we are the most important client he has. We have been using T Shirt Wonders for years and would refer whose looking for a change to give him a shot. And he served our Country proudly.”
“Absolutely love this place. Being able to taste-test many of drinks is a game changer! The staff is so knowledgeable and helpful - they helped me find exactly what I was looking for (and then some)! I am completely sober, and it's hard to describe how great it feels to walk into a bottle shop and be able to drink everything. But you don't need to be sober to enjoy this place! Their drink selection is superb - looking for NA beer, an NA wine that actually tastes good (trust me, they are hard to find), liquor, Kava, CBD, etc.? What about a gin with CBD? They have it all! Highly recommend.”
