Called to ask about a sneaker drop after an employee at Likelihood directed me here. I was very specific with the release date, brand and style number but the dude kept saying "I really don't know." When I asked if he could check with someone else he said "nope," and hung up on me! Seriously shocking after the employee at Likelihood was so helpful. With high-ticket stock like this, customer service is paramount, to say the least. At least now I know to avoid them. read more

The overall shop is pretty cool. Lots of collectibles and bait exclusives in the store but most of their inventory is kept in the back so if you're looking for a particular item, it's probably upstairs. Great place to buy gifts for family and friends, I really like the layout of the store, small and roomy. If you like to collect figures, then you'll love it here. They even have some really cool sneakers. Sometimes 30% off, but inventory seems low for their shoes. 01: went to bait for the first time to see if they had what I needed. The employees were a bit.. eh? I don't know what to call them, but I though they were customers by the way they were acting. No acknowledgement and horsed around staring at the customers. Didn't really help unless they were called on. Found an item I liked, but saw a defect, asked him to see another one. Seems like most of them were like that, my bad. Seems nice. 02: went back about a few weeks later and the employees were much better than the previous ones. These ones actually talk to you and helped out a lot. I felt bad for bothering one of the guy but he was really nice and helped me out for about 40 minutes. They also seem knowledgeable as well and knew a lot of information about the items in their store. So it depends on who's working, but I'm not that big on customer service. If you're there to buy something, then it shouldn't really bother you if customer service sucks, even though it is a nice feeling when they're really helpful. Overall, don't let it affect your shopping experience cause they got some great stuff there. 03: went back recently and they seem to be better with their service, very nice or maybe it's because they see me often :D Sometimes I only see myself in the store, I wonder when their busiest hours are. Its been exactly a month since I've visit baits so I called them today asking about the product and they told me I was able to purchase a lot if I wanted to, unfortunately that wasn't the case when I got there and got placed a limit :( wasted my gas but at least I got a few. Disappointment, why don't you love me? read more

Highly recommend! I Came across this shop while visiting from California. Really cool merchandise here. Got quite a few Bape brand apparel and merchandise. Super friendly, helpful and professional employees here (did not get their names but there was about 3-4 guys working) Super awesome guys! Definitely will be coming back if I am in town. read more

Super nice guys and great customer service. My girlfriend and I popped in right quick to avoid a guy following us and they let us chill and chat while we waited for the guy to leave. Girlfriend bought a keychain as a thank you for being a momentary haven. Thank you fellas. read more

Great service at this bait! Aldrich helped me out so did the rest of the staff. They were so friendly and I just felt so welcomed. I will be back at this bait store thanks!! read more

Really dope shoe store...nice set up...unique pieces & shoes. Offer my 12 year old pairs of Jordan's for half off

Horrible horrible customer service from the moment I walked in. Not to mention the overweight employee wearing fake Yeezy's. I was under the impression that everything including the employees was supposed to be authentic. Every time I requested a size it was a hassle to get their attention. The polka-dot employee who resembled J.Cole was also very full of himself. All of them came off as lazy and arrogant. Overall my experience was terrible and I wouldn't send my worst enemy there. Just terrible. read more

Great service! Got the cutest shoes and the people who work here are so helpful and kind. Matt was especially helpful as well as the other 2 people who work there. Best BAIT store! read more

I've been to BAIT in SD & LA so when we visited Seattle, I had to stop in. We walked about 2 miles from the Pike's Marketplace to get there. BAIT always had the best collabs but they never have my size in anything. Lol. If you're looking for dope gear or fresh kicks, they got you. We always end up getting some blind boxes for the kids to take home. read more

BAIT - Shoe Stores Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I've always wanted to check this store out in person instead of just site seeing on their website especially since I live in VA. The store and employees were very nice . Great selection and the collection of BearBricks and other collectibles were great! Definitely worth the trip! read more

Great service and very good stylish clothes, nice workers very laid back and relaxed environment, would recommend

You know what you're getting if you walk into a place like this! The employees were helpful and knowledgeable. I was visiting Seattle and they even help with some recommendations for restaurants. read more

This is one my absolute favorite stores to visit while In California and was fortunate enough to visit their Washington location. It did not disappoint. The curation of sneakers, clothes, and collectibles exceeded my expectations. Great selection and value. The employees were beyond helpful and attentive. I purchased a few collectibles and clothing and they even offered me a discount by checking in on yelp. I'll always be a BAIT customer and can't wait to come back on my next visit! Cheers from Texas. read more

Excellent shop!! Super friendly staff that made the experience all the better. Really cool, eclectic mix of apparel and shoes. Check it out!

When this store places Help Wanted ads they must say only the biggest a-holes need apply. I saw a jacket in their window today that I loved so I went in to check it out. I was standing there staring at the man "working" hoping he'd acknowledge me and offer me some assistance but his phone call about the party he went to last night was far more important than any possible sale. I suppose I should be grateful for such poor customer service. While I stood there waiting, I was able to find the jacket online and purchased it the moment I left. BAIT was selling it for $200 and I just got it for a total of $143, which included 3 day shipping from the UK. read more

Great store with even better selection. Don't expect the best customer service because that isn't what they're known for. Folks shop here because they want the latest gear and fit at a fair price. I ended up purchasing a nice hat that I didn't know existed, the store clerk even walked in the back to grab me a fresh and unworn one since he wanted to make sure I was getting brand new. I def recommend Bait Seattle, just don't expect the best customer service and you'll have a great experience. read more

Came in hoping to cop the Jordan 11 breds ended up copping the fire yeezy 700 for a steal price would definitely recommend going for some insane steals. read more

Bait is a cool new store that opened in capitol hill. They have a variety of things at this store such as clothing, shoes, mystery boxes and so much more. The store itself is really pretty, hardwood with high ceilings with bright lights. Give yourself some time if you come to bait, they have a lot of things to explore This store is worth a visit if you're in the area read more

Cool store, lots of runners which is great! I also love the gear they carry, especially the BAIT brand apparel they have. If you're looking for Asics or Sauconys, here is the place! P.S. very friendly staff! read more

Awesome guys!! Helped me get my size hoodie and was very friendly. The vibe was really good, nice and neat as well. Thank you!

The best selection of the freshest gear!!! Not to mention the rad staff. I will forever shop here!!! Love love love this store

Staff was very helpful as always just like their other locations. They even went out of their way to make sure that I was able to get new merchandise, and not the item that was out on display. Everyone should definitely check out this location. read more

I love this store. It's got all the stuff an urban, kind-of-but-not-really nerd should love. Their shoe selection is dope. The apparel and accessories are stylish and outside of the Seattle box. The collectibles are just fun to look at. The staff is super chilled out and friendly. I'm always so happy every time I walk in and I think you will be too. read more

Good store, layout is decent, staff was friendly but shoes are mostly GR's (general releases) that are still on shelves and are marked up above retail. They do have quite a few that aren't on shelves any more that are pretty decently priced. Need to have more retros and older releases. Thats my only real complaint but i did love the figures and statues in the store. read more

Do not shop here. Horrible customer service. I was told I could return if I changed my mind. Came back less than a week later with receipt in hand and was told I could only get store credit. Salesperson was aggressive and unhelpful. I will never go back. read more

My favorite store in Seattle for shoes, shirts, denim, jackets and just overall swag. Super friendly staff who are always welcoming and there to help if you're looking for something. Huge selection of figures and other collectibles. Seems like every time I go in I find something I have to buy. Deff check out this store if you're ever in the area. read more

Good shit. They let me try in both shoes. Good selection. They have a bunch of shoes on sale for half off if that's your thing. Bunch of figures. Bunch of sick clothes. In a cool part of town. read more

Friendly staff and great selection on sizes. They took the time to make sure we got all the info on the store products and other locations as well. read more

The guys at BAIT were extremely helpful and knowledgeable in the brands. One of the best shops in Seattle for menswear and collectibles.

I love sneakers so I was pretty stoked when this place moved in. The people who work here are great, and I finally get to talk with some fellow sneaker heads. It's tough to have a brick and mortar these days, but this shop really does it right. Great selection of new releases and some limited runs. And clothes and some other weird stuff too. read more

Great shoes!! Sales guys were very helpful and friendly. Love the women's shoes but I had to buy my son shoes. Neat little collectibles.

Love this place. Really great staff. Great style. Me and my wife stopped in and she found the shoes she wanted at the right price. Next thing I knew I found a pair for myself and they were on sale (as in buy one pair, get another for free). Awesome to get a great pair of kicks for next to nothing. Thanks Bait! read more

THIS STORE SUCKS! it's named bait for a reason. every employee is either stoned or has ZERO interest in helping customers. they are too lazy to check for your size. or once you find them, they sell them when you walk around the store to someone else. and they don't care. go to 35th north down the street. they care and are great guys. read more

Cool place to check out some serious unique stuff. The apparel is very nice and i love how friendly the employees were.

Love the store! They have collections of Nike that's exclusive in their store and I love the native brand. The capital hill location carries more women's gear than the one in Portland. Overall, if you're looking for the more urban fitting, this is it! read more
