This is silly, SF Giants Dugout at Oakridge Mall has been open for about ~3 months according to Matthew J.(Thanks!) WHYDIDN’T I KNOWTHISAHHH! Here’s a rundown comparison of VF cs. OM. MALLS: VALLEYFAIR .:||v.s.||:. OAKRIDGEMALL LOCATION: Next to Macy’s Men & Home .:||:. Next to Food Court, Spencer’s, Perfumania AMBIANCE: Cramped, items and clothes shoved next to each other everywhere .:||:. Spacious, there’s walking space(even for strollers to go through), all items and clothes are evenly and nicely displayed ITEMQUANTITY: Has MORE Giants items, memorabilia, and clothing selections .:||:. Has a good assortment but less than VF, less clothing options to choose from((according to Oakridge’s employee!)) SERVICE: Okay, mediocre, unmemorable .:||:. Wonderful, attentive, and outstanding. I’ll elaborate below! PRICES: Same at both places. Although some people swear VF is more expensive *shrugs* All sport items are $$$, playa! TL;DR? For simple Giants items(keychains, stickers, etc.) and popular shirts, I will choose Oakridge Mall over Valley Fair any day. Oakridge Mall is also 10 minutes from my house, and its parking and crowds aren’t as CRAZY as V.F.(Come on, be real here). Employees are infinitely friendlier and welcoming at Oakridge. On a busy Friday night, there was only two employees manning the store(cashier and stockperson). I was greeted and the employees answered my question and even helped me locate a shirt for dad’s Christmas gift :) My bf and I came here because EVERYTHING on the website was back ordered and nothing would be shipped probably until AFTER Christmas. Although I didn’t find the ideal shirt at this location(due to limited clothing selection), I found a pretty good Giants SF shirt. I might head over to Valley Fair but it really depends on if I am insane enough to go through hell :) HUZZAH for the Oakridge Giants Dugout!

It’s about time the South Bay has a SF Giants Dugout! Perfectly located in the Oakridge Mall, next to the Food Court. This location is much LARGER than the Valley Fair Dugout. DEEPER and well stocked with Post Season and World Series gear!!! The aisles are large enough for a stroller, wheel chair and or waking aid… Unlike the Valley Fair location!!! I really hope that this store will last… I don’t see why this store didn’t come in 2010, or 2012?!? SF Giant have a HUGE Fan Base! The Giants own the South Bay!!! Let Go Giants!!!
