Journeys

5 people working, one customer in the store: but guess what, no one’s available to help you! waited in line to inquire about a product but one associate was busy with a guest (yes– that’s understandable) and the other two associate were behind the register but would not look at me. I waited 10 minutes while the customer in front of me was being upsold on socks, and decided that I can spend that kind of money much quicker online… I don’t want to Inconvience anyone or anything…

Prices often match or beat what online retailers offer and the people who work there are always super prompt and helpful in getting you what you need. Good selection of shoes and streetwear-​esque boots.

I have purchased a few pairs of Doc Marten boots here, as well as 1 pair of shoes. I have also gone with others who have also purchased Doc Marten boots. Every time we get wonderful service, quick response to when we need to something in our size. If they don’t have it they quickly offer to order it, while not being to pushy and giving you space to shop. Always been very happy. Will be coming back again for sure!!!

So the staff there is usually made up of Watsonville or Santa Cruz high kids who don’t really give two shits about their job. Additionally, if you want to see homeland flavor (aka Harojuku inspired shoes– since people here on the central coast are so down with Mod Squad Japanese fashion) this is the place to roll. HOWEVER today was a different day. Ana O. texts me let’s go shopping. Those three dangerous words. I just got paid and I am some money to burn– and I am on a mission for some cute chonies and cardigans. sure why not. I had been upset two months ago because the Judyy shoe from Steve Madden sold out– all I wanted was a black pair. Ana spotted duplicates for half the price here (exact same shoe just cheaper quality and different «name brand»). They had my size and in ten minutes I was a happy camper. Why not four or five stars? The guy who rang me up kept on hassling (more like hustling) me to buy some crap I don’t need (hip hop inspired shoe laces– gawdy bags.christ.). This store for being tiny has a good selection of heels, sandals, vans and other clean kicks.
