Disappointed. Call me "old school" but greeting me when I walk in the door goes a long way. Hey,…read moreeven an acknowledgment! We walked in the door, to a shop devoid of any other customers, and then were completely ignored by 2 salespeople who were obviously in a personal conversation about something more important than us. I have worked retail for over 10 years and know the importance of professionalism and good customer service and it starts with the basics. Needless to say, our wallets never left our pockets. We marched over to Martin Fitzpatrick and were blown away by not only their product, but the kindness and politeness given to us by their staff

If my fiance were less of a man-beast (he's too tall for most clothing in general), if I physically brought him here and if I hid all the price tags, I like to think he'd shop here too. (What can I say? My fiance is a classy man who describes his look as "artfully disheveled." We all have our strengths.) In addition the the mostly American-made and Nordic clothing, they have some fun accessories for biking (leather 6-pack holder that I got my fiance for his birthday one year), camping (HOODED WALKING SLEEPING BAG SUIT?!?!) and some great home decor items like a woolen badger face pillow that I want in my house really badly. Also, the Faribault Woolen Mills blankets. Gimme. Dem. Blankets.

We weren't looking for anything in particular, just passing through, but it was a blast to see what they had. Everything felt well maintained and curated, and easy to shop through without being cluttered. There is a try-on area and a three-sided mirror, with someone trying on a beret - just peak vintage shop vibes. The staff members were all dressed to the NINES - they are their own advertisements for what expertise they offer. Don't expect thrifting prices here - this is a higher end, curated vintage shop and prices reflect that. If you're a lover of all things vintage, you've gotta come check this out!

I stopped in a few days before Christmas, and I actually had a few things yet I wanted to get my grandpa, so this worked out great. At the entrance - and throughout the store - I found free hot coffee, tea, refreshments, cookies, and treats. Maybe it's just a holiday thing but I loved the hospitality. The space is HUGE - so much more than clothes! I had no idea. They have: - books and coffee table books - a whole room dedicated to perfume/cologne and scents - a whole area for cocktail-related gifts - home decor, tableware, and interior decor items - kitschy smaller giftables that were organized by theme (work/office, hosting, etc.) - menswear and womenswear - jewelry - candles - and so much more! I genuinely believe you can walk in here and be sure to find something for anyone on your gifting list. The service was incredible: lots of welcomes and greetings, and staff there to help you if you need it. Oh, they even have a room you can reserve while shopping?! FANCY!

Wonderful first experience with the bros. My first not off…read morethe rack suit ever. I came in with a good idea of what I wanted. This is for my wedding suit but also something I will wear for years to come. I have always wanted a bespoke suit and this was my excuse to finally get one. They made the whole experience fun and relaxed. The couple two finger whiskey pours helped as well. Really though, very friendly, seemed very knowledgeable, good insight while not pushing something I didn't want. Not pushy or intimidating whatsoever actually. Very helpful in going in the direction I wanted, while making suggestions to make sure the final product will be something that works and I will be happy with. Highly recommended so far. Will update after the suit is complete but I am very confident and excited for what I know will be an amazing suit. Thanks guys, see you again soon.

But now "Things Done Changed." (Biggie reference.) Within the last couple years, a handful of new spots have opened up in Minneapolis alone! Phenom is refreshing with its dope two room setup, wooden floors, and tees that hang from an automated and revolving rack above. (Like what drycleaners have.) They also carry a small selection of sneaker classics like Nike Air Maxes, Jordans, and New Balances (the non-Grandpa kind), some interesting caps (both snapback and fitted), and original sweatshirts I've never really seen online. I'm not really a fan of their selection, but I can see how some peeps dig it. Aside from the gear, the customer service could be better. I saw one Nike Air Max and got a staff member to get it in my size. I found that it didn't fit and tried chatting with him a bit. He seemed disinterested in trying to sell me anything and left to talk to the shorty at the front of the store. At other boutiques, the staff usually tries to hustle me. Kinda surprised. Again, I love Phenom's dope space and can appreciate their gear, but the customer service could be better.

Beautiful ground up conceptual design with their Phenom cloud logo emblazoned across the racks, counters, and their own personal clothing that they manufacture in the back of the shop. So sick! Much love for this shop and always stop in to see their new gear whenever I'm in the area. Pricy for some of these products because of their brands, but it's well worth the pricepoint if you are savvy in the streetwear game and understand what you're actually looking at! o.O

There was a bin in the back that was lower cost but it was mostly sweaters and shirts that weren't my style and not what I need at the moment. Nothing to bring me back here honestly but there are certain types of people that would love this. Prices seemed steep but it's vintage and they can get away with it.

Plenty of parking in the shared lot or on the street. You'll need to be buzzed into the store as the door is locked. Once inside the shop is pretty small and jam packed with stuff....almost too much stuff. It was hard to look at items and the vibe felt a little meh. I still wanted to browse and find something to take home, I'm not sure if I missed the memo for sizing on tops but it was hard to know which section I should be looking in. There were some great finds in there, but also pretty expensive. Previous reviews mentioning prices seem to be several years old so keep in mind that you'll be spending a lot depending on what you're looking for. I will say- if vintage is your style and you're open to what you wear this would be a good stop. If you're a little more picky and looking to save some money this may not be the best option.

You're also provided complimentary drinks while browsing the store. If the main floor doesn't meet your needs don't fret! Just go upstairs and there's an entire room of racks of sale items to check out which include items from previous seasons. Parking is also free behind the building. A piece of information I learned is not all items in store are placed online depending on the contract they have with the brand where brands may not allow them to sell pieces online, so your best bet if you're looking for something in particular would be to pop into the store.
