Converse

We had custom shoes printed at the customize station. First off, they had iPads but not an app, you just had to go to pictures to see the options. They «take your order» at the customize desk and then have you take your shoes and the invoice to the cashier and you have to pay upfront. I am glad they didn’t mess up, would have been horrible I am sure.
They said it would take 30 – 45 minutes. About 30 – 35 minutes, we went back but they had not started on my shoes at all. She was taking orders from other people and no one could help with that. She quoted 1 more hour. We had already walked the whole mall and sat down and ate so walked around again (a tad too chilly just to sit outside)
it took her 1.5 hours not including the first 30 or so minutes. We paid for both sides of each shoe to print and she only printed one side per shoe. During the «order» portion, she kept seeming to push the half side since its $ 40 cheaper. We had to wait another 20 minutes for her to finish. By now she was closed and still had at least 1 more order… that poor person.
the shoes look alright (not fantastic, and the tongue and backtab are just a solid color) but she left ink on the sidewall of the sole and got ink on the new white laces and didn’t replace them. they did apologize for the wait but did not offer anything above that.
All in all, never get the shoes printed in store if you are short on time. all in all, I likely wouldn’t get shoes printed again and stick to custom from the converse website or custom shoes that may come out from time to time.

Unilocal 2015 Challenge #7
Wow. This place was kinda big! :D Well not huge but… merp
This place was in the Eastern Desert Hills outlet mall. This is actually one of the first stores you see if you’re coming in from the Cabazon area. When we went in, there was a 40% sale off CLEARANCE items. I got a pair of shoes that was originally $ 60, and on sale at $ 30. Yep. $ 17 shoes. Aw yes. The staff was very knowledgeable and knew where everything was :) I had asked where the boots were. They’re in the center haha, and you can see if it’s men’s, women’s, or unisex. Check the box and see what it says. :) They have a LOT of variety here haha. There were tons of shoes here for guys: D Aw yes. :P
Unfortunately, the line is long and does take some time to get through. They do offer a $ 5 gift card with a survey online haha. Totally would come back.

Great customer service. All employees were very helpful. Prices are good. Everything seems to be discounted. I would definitely come back and shop here again.

We had a coupon book from the concierge and every store we shopped at honored their discount coupon regardless of sales or promotions. Converse did not. Told them the coupon is what got me in the store and was disappointed to hear that they did not accept my coupon. However through my shopping spree Nike, Off Saks 5^th, Banana Republic, Neiman Marcus, PacSun. Too bad Converse had to be tight wads!

Awesome staff, awesome deals!!! I was very very impressed with the manager! Best experience at this store compared to the other stores at this outlet mall.

For a desert, it was super cold and windy. I went in to buy a jacket. For a great deal on a decent one! Total came out to $ 21.57. Yippee.

Fair variety of chucks and apparel.
Found it to crowded to really try on anything. All the seats were mostly taken by people sitting around playing on their phones or talking with people rather than actually trying on stuff.
Though I did manage to find a $ 8 scarf for my wife.

I wish I wore more sneakers, especially colorful ones.
So many shoes to pick from, at $ 20 a pair.
Cute clothes, too. GMIT looked adorable in one of the dresses. Don’t tell her I said that, though. Wouldn’t want to look MORE uncool to my teenage daughter.

CONVERSE CHUCKS HEAVEN!
They also have some very simple t-​shirts and button ups for guys and girls! Amazing prices and great quality!
I’m going to resist from having an entire Converse Chucks shoe collection.
$ 40 for adult sizes and $ 30 for kids. Lucky for me I am a size 4 in kids so I get it for $ 30 which makes me 1 happy shopper: D
Did I mention the employees here are so down to earth? I spent about a good 10 – 15 minutes chatting it up with the gal at the cash register!

this is chuck taylor heaven. all-​star duffels… logo t’s… and you know those john varvatos slip-on’s that seem to be sold out in your size everywhere and are around $ 100?! they’re HERE… in YOUR size… and they’re CHEAPER.

If you love the Chuck’s you had when you were a kid, well this place has every color including pink! Oh yeah!
