This is always the go to place when my husband gets his gear. The guys are always friendly and ready to help. I had a gentleman help me right away with my first helmet and Harmon helped me at the end. Thank you Harmon for your hospitality. read more

Fantastic place. People are nice, no pressure sales, store is clean and well organized. They answered all of the questions we had and helped us pick out our gear. I wish more brands will have their boutique stores for people to try on before they buy. This is definitely a place to check out even if you don't buy from them. read more

Easily one of the best motorcycle gear stores I've been too. Not only are Dainese the best and most expensive stuff, they look awesome and work great. There's nothing better than riding a motorcycle and not only getting fully protected from the dangers (as much as you can by riding gear), but look sexy doing it. Corey is the representative that helped me out last Saturday during their clearance sale and he was very knowledgeable. I ended up buying a full Dainese Mission One Piece Suit that was hand made in Italy and are the closest you can purchase to getting a Moto GP suit. I hear that they're discontinuing the model because it is too expensive to manufacture. The biggest reason I bought it though because it is the lethal combination of awesome, in my size and on clearance. It was clearly meant to be. I also picked up silk lined gloves for when riding in the cold, protective textile jacket, and an awesome leather jacket along with a Dainese Wave G1 to go in it and protect my back. I easily spent more money than I would have liked, but with this clearance sale it was hard to pass up on the items I bought where they were all at least 40% off. While I would never shop there and pay full price, I can attest to how great the products are and Corey is a top notch employee. read more

First let me start out by saying Sean Johnson is, hands down, an amazing sales associate! He was not only helpful, but full of knowledge on all the gear. Now days it's rare to run into a workers who actually know the products and can give you a good idea on if it's what you're looking for or not. Sean knew everything about everything, and he clearly showed that. I can go on and on about the great experience I had at this store, but I'll just leave it at that. I definitely left a happy customer and will definitely return to this store for any future gear needs. read more

Great service, as well as great product. Corey is very helpful and knowledgable. If you live in the area (or not) and ride a motorcycle you need to pay a visit to this store. read more

I feel so fortunate that I live within reasonable driving distance from this place. If you appreciate Dainese quality and style, then this is absolutely the place to shop. You just can't go to Cycle Gear and see the kind of Dainese and AGV helmet options you see here. I read a few reviews with people complaining about employees and decided to write this because I had an entirely opposite(and positive) experience. I dealt with 4 different guys over the course of 3 visits and all were knowledgeable, friendly and professional. I spent several hours there trying on suits, pants, helmets and jackets. For helmets, it's really nice to try on the right size of the Pista, Corsa, Veloce, K5 and compare how they feel. When you go to Cycle Gear, they might have a Corsa and it might be in your size. But there's no way they have all of them so you can see how your field of vision is different on one compared to another. And with suits and pants, the sizes actually vary for each of the styles so a 50 in one is not the same fit as a 50 in another. You really need to try on a bunch to make sure you get the right fit, particularly with leather that stretches. Having bikes that you can actually sit on just adds to the fitting process. I ended up returning an unused track suit in order to put the money to use for something else and had zero issues with the process. I'm sure it was obvious to them that the suit was not used and I'd expect they'd have an issue returning a used suit. I bought boots and pants and couldn't be happier with both. I won't think twice about returning when it's time for a new helmet and gloves. read more

I drive 110 miles one way to come to Dainese. The two times I've been here, the customer services has been impeccable. Red Bull's as you shop, YES PLEASE! Brandon has always been the one to help me find my needs and wants. Gear selection had variety and well worth it. I'll be back again. read more

Hassle free returns!! I had ordered a helmet off of AGV's website, and even though the order was made through a third party, my order was processed very quickly. When I noticed that I ordered the wrong sized helmet, I called D-Stor and rather than go through the third party again, they told me I could just ship 'em the helmet and they would send me the correct size upon receiving the exchange. I can't speed up ground shipping, but every time I called the two different gentlemen I spoke to were very patient with me, and they even sent UPS to my address and emailed me right away the return label. Loved feeling secure that my purchase was seriously considered. I did no work for this return other than pick up the phone! It's a bummer I live in the Bay, I would like to have a D-Stor near me. 5 Stars for customer service! read more

Awesome staff and great products! Favorite thing about this store is their deals! Ive bought a helmet and 2 jackets now from this store with no issues to this date. Cant wait to go back for more gear read more

On top of the amazing gear selection at the store, Harman had fantastic knowledge and some of the best customer service I have ever received! 5 out of 5 stars all around! read more

Great place awesome staff, Michael was extremely helpful and help me pick out the right suit for me, and as an added bonus hooked me up with extra gear! I definitely recommend this store to everyone! read more

Anyone that knows their motorbikes and apparel well knows that Dainese is sorta the Ferrari of bike leathers and accessories. Having ridden streetbikes for almost 8 years now, and seeing them plastered all over Valentino Rossi over the years, I definitely wanted to check out the store. It didn't disappoint (although I didn't purchase anything because I have been a loyal Alpinestars customer over the past 6 years and am very happy with my SMX Leather jacket). Store was filled with eye-gasm quality goods, including an assortment of Rossi's creative AGV helmets for sale as well as top-notch leathers, and mountain bike protective gear- And my personal favorite, a leather suit Rossi wore back in his RC211V Honda days. If you have the funds, and want great leathers, check this store out! read more

Had no idea this spot was here. Walked in and was greeted by Sean Johnson. Man was he a big help. Not only was he patient and knowledgeable he was just really there to just help with anything and everything we needed. It really felt like an experience. And we were jus buying gear. So awesome place and atmosphere. sorry this review took so long. I came here about 3 weeks ago. But I def had to leave this place a good review. Oh and they have cold drinks for you while you shop. read more

Hands down the best customer service experience I've ever had. The guys there were all patient, helpful and very knowledgeable. This store is a good 90 miles away from me but I don't think I'll ever go anywhere else again for gear. Oh and their selection is pretty amazing too. read more

While I almost never write reviews of places I visit, I just had to for this store. Harman was quick to help me out once I walked in and he spent as much time as I needed to find the right fitment for all of the gear that I purchased. He made sure that I knew all of the options available so I could make a confident purchase and I really appreciate that. This was by far one of the best buying experiences I've had! read more

Its been about 8 years since I last owned a motorcycle or a Dainese jacket. I recently bought a bike and was in need of a new jacket. So I went to the D-Store. Upon entering the building I was immediately greeted by Lee. He helped me find a jacket that not only fit me but fit my budget. The store is really well organized and their employees will make you feel at home. They will price match competitor prices, so if your looking for Dainese or AGV gear look no further go down to the D-Store in Costa Mesa you won't be disappointed. read more

Excellent service and high quality products are in store for you at the Costa Mesa D-Store. Huge selection of Dainese gear, AGV helmets and more. Great store layout too. read more

This place is absolutely amazing. The presentation of the product is incredible. The overall professionalism of the store is great. I'm definitely coming back here again for any motorcycle gear I need in the future. It's already well known that Dainese is one of the best brands out there, but the great customer service you get from this store is going to keep me coming back. Eddie (and I'm sorry but I forgot the other guy's name) is very knowledgeable on the product and very helpful. My favorite part is the staff is friendly and informative but not pushy at all. They're simply there to help. I can't count the number of times I've walked out of places like this because you're constantly bombarded with questions and can't be left alone. You don't get that at this store. I was even offered water/coffee/monster and I didn't even make a purchase today. I will definitely be back in the future though for some riding pants and a shirt. 5 star experience! read more

What a wonderful place! Such a huge selection of stuff, and everyone there is so friendly! Brandon really went out of his way to help me out as well, so huge thank you to him!! read more

By far some of the most aesthetically appealing, comfortable, and safest gear you can find. Came in to see what was on sale, but didn't find any good sale items (as you never can) Ended up grabbing some new armor, a jacket, and pants anyway. The workers were all friendly and accommodating with their knowledge of the products and proper fitment. Afterward, they invited me to hang out and watch MOTO GP on their screens. I sat down to enjoy MOTO GP on their TV screen with the accompaniment of free food and drinks. read more

Excellent customer service. The guys at the Dstore are very welcoming and helpful. Chris has helped me on more than one occasion. Thanks guys!!!! read more

The sales staff couldn't be more helpful. Never trying to sell you gear that doesn't fit or isn't right for you...for many years their service and quality and quantity of selection has been consistent. read more

Awesome store. Elisabeth is the sweetest little Italian moto chick you'll ever meet! She was so helpful both times I've seen her and always very kind. I never felt pushed into a sale or anything there. Left today with a brand new Racing P. Lady suit and some sweet boots. They give a great deal to CVMA racers and you definitely get your money's worth there. Highly recommend!! read more

Taste - 5 Want some quality gear? This is the place to come. Experience - 5 Very welcoming, everyone that works there is helpful and will let you be to shop. They offer a few events, like a hosting races to watch or little mechanic sessions on basic motorcycle maintenance. And there's food! Environment - 5 The store has been renovated and looks great. Price - 3 This stuff isn't cheap, but they do offer sales events as well as carry some clearance items. Location - 3 It shares a lot with a car wash, so parking can be limited. I live a good ways away from this place, but at least it's local enough for me to drive to! read more

Came in just taking a look around and Eddie was incredibly helpful. He was very knowledgeable, down to earth, and super friendly. I didn't feel pressured to buy anything (even though I ended up purchasing the Evo 4 strokes gloves). I didn't want to deal with online ordering and the hassle of returning items that didn't fit as expected. I'm really glad I chose to visit the store. I'll definitely be going back read more

What a great store. Yes, they have quite a bit of stuff and even motorcycles to pose on. You can see how your outfit looks in the mirror. In my case, a bit tight. read more

I love Dainese! They always have the perfect sizes for me. I would buy everything Dainese except for the helmet. I rather go with Arai. Going to this store is like a kid going into a toy store. read more

Honestly the best customer service I have ever experienced. Would not expect such good service at a motorcycle shop of all places but Elisabetta really did everything to make our visit to the Dainese store perfect. Ended up buying an AGV Corsa helmet and she helped every step of the way from finding a good size and demonstrating the features. Complimentary water, expresso shots, and even tshirts. Such a great store and will go here before I buy online just for the service. Can't thank her enough! read more

Bought jacket, helmet and gloves. Service is beyond the best. Helpful and knowledgeable. I give it 4 stars because really no motorcycle parking? I mean that's all you sell is motorcycle gear. Can't park up front unless you work there. Was told to move my bike to their parking lot which on the side of the building. The parking lot is a car wash with debris flying around and people standing and waiting for their cars. Come on now. read more

Came here for their sample sale. I didn't find anything I was interested in among the items that were on sale. Ended up picking up a pair of riding shoes for around 30% off anyway. It looks like they hired a new guy, forgot what his name was but he didn't seem happy at all while helping me find something that fits my feet. For this reason I took off one star. Corey is great on the other hand, he's always friendly. read more

So, I nothing but love for this store and specifically the staff. Brandon Monk is a great guy and just one of their great staff I would look out for if you go to the store. He not only helped me get exactly what I needed, but afforded me the opportunity to really try on a lot of gear and find the perfect fit for me. Read below for how amazing their staff is and my personal experience. I recently scheduled some track days at Laguna Seca and since it was my first set of track days I need gear: race suit, gloves, underliner, etc. I originally ordered stuff from Revzilla, I ordered a race suit and gloves (well not the D1s because they didn't have them in stock), but they just weren't the right size and I didn't have the time or energy to order two or three of everything to get the right fit. So I sent my stuff back to Revzilla and I called the D-store in Orange County. Since I was flying into LA, I asked if they would be open the Sunday before the Monday I was hitting the track--they weren't (easter sunday). I couldn't blame them for being closed, but when I was on the phone and Brandon heard my story about my up coming first track experience at Laguna Seca he offered to help me in anyway he could. Brandon talked to the manager and OPENED the store on a CLOSED HOLIDAY SUNDAY for me. I was able to try on multiple suits, multiple back protectors, get the right fit and ultimately have the perfect set up for a perfect day at the track. We even watched part of the Qatar race while I was making my purchases. AMAZING!! I have never had a person like Brandon go so out of there way to make my experience of buying gear and buying the right gear so amazing. I plan on exclusively buying from these guys in the future. The experience was PRICELESS!! I eventually went to Laguna Seca and had the best weekend, and just as Brandon informed after a day on the track in the heat the race suit broke in and I almost didn't want to take any of my gear off by the end of the day. I was really worried my suit was too tight, but Brandon would let me go a size up and rightfully so. My suit fits like a glove. In addition, Brandon let me try on all 5 pairs of D1 Full Metal gloves to find the best two gloves that fit. Originally the pinky and thumb were to big in 3 pairs, but on the 5th pair I tried on all fingers were perfect. Unreal, you read tons of reviews about gloves fitting in all fingers but one or two--not the case here--I have a pair that feels like it was tailored to me thanks to Brandon. These guys know what they are talking about they aren't just Joes that work there--they a riders, canyon riders, commuter riders, track riders, and knee-draggers who want the best product with the best fit for you. I bought: Laguna Sece Evo Perforated Race Suit D1 Full Metal Gloves Dianese inner liner Manis Back Protector If you want gear and you want to get the right stuff that fits appropriately and makes you a better rider by creating less distractions for you on the track (or on the street)-- go to the D-store Orange County -- they will treat you with respect, won't BS you, and won't let you buy gear that won't fit you right after you break it in. Btw this store is huge they have pretty much every AGV and Dianese product you can think of... I can't wait to go back. Thanks Brandon!! read more

Dainese - Thanks Brandon at D-store Orange County for helping me with the perfect race suit and glove fit!! - Motorcycle Gear Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

The store has been remodeled and is beautiful. So much inventory! The helpful staff gave several great suggestions about gear i was unsure about, that wasnt based on price but my specific needs. I wasnt rushed at, just greated nicely. I dont like being followed around a store by sales people so i appreciated the relaxed and friendly nature. Patrycia offered me a water, energy or espresso. I found they offer group rides and discount on track days prices if i purchase the tickets there. They also give discounts if you are signed up for a training course...this was awesome for my newbie friend. The experience was great. read more

If you are in the market for a great set of leathers, you must check this place out. The store employees are very helpful, the merchandise is first rate and they have a tremendous selection. read more

The reason for the Rating is not the store itself but a certain product (D-Air) and Customer Service "After Sales". I purchased a D-Air suit a few months back. I recently crashed, small Lowside. I sent it in for repair. The manager told me it was going to be approx 2 weeks to get it repaired. He said it didn't look bad and should be easy to fix. It has now been 6 weeks and they just sent me a quote. I sent numerous emails (weekly) and the first reply back was 6 weeks later. They apologized and gave me the excuse that some employees got sick and couldn't come to work. Looking at the quote I was shocked to see the price. 1300.00$ to repair my suit. I emailed them back letting them know I just wanted the airbag repacked. The suit was fine. Some of the letters from the logo came off. No big deal. They replied back saying they can't repack the suit unless it was in "pristine condition" ... to make matters worse, the time they took just to give me a quote I missed out on a few MotoAmerica races. Also, I work in the industry, i needed a suit for some events at Laguna Seca so I had to purchase another suit which was another 1300$. It's extremely disappointing and a waste of time. If you're thinking about buying a D-Air suit don't waste your time or the 2600$ plus tax. I know another company that has an Airbag suit. The airbag is in an internal vest which is removable and good for two crashes. Which means you're not out a suit if you crash, twice. Just take out the vest send it in and they'll send it back once they finish repacking it. read more

This place has everything you will need in terms of riding gear. I've been here multiple times to purchase my gear, and always walked out with more than I intended to....so have my friends that I bring here too. Brandon was extremely helpful with all the questions I had, and Elisabetta is the hardest person to say no too, especially when she will stay after hours and wait for you. I left here with an Aero suit, axial pro in boots, undersuit, and socks. My buddy left with a Laguna Suit. Overall, I'm thrilled with the gear, and will be returning. Customer service is amazing!!!! read more

I am very disappointed in my visit to the Dainese store. As my son and I are reasonably new owners of motorcycles I was excited to make a purchase of jackets and boots for both of us. Being in Costa Mesa for a business trip I decided I would go out of my way to see the store and do my shopping after my meeting. Upon walking in I was briefly greeted and then as I walked around for about 40 minutes I was completely ignored by the one salesman that was busy taking care of a customer that came in after me. As it reached a point of frustration I approached what turned out to be the manager of the store chatting with a gentleman. As I nicely expressed my frustration he said he had been walking around the store doing an interview and he only had one person on the floor. He was incredibly condescending and rude and said the salesman should have helped me. I also asked him if an interview is more than a customer?, and he had no answer. Why couldn't the manager have helped me? For selling high quality apparel what type of customer service is this? The manager should immediately be fired. To be doing an interview on the floor and completely ignoring me the entire time in unacceptable. I will Be writing a letter to Dainese corporate. In response to Thomas' post. My account of my visit to the store is very accurate. How can you emphasize exceptional customer service when the manager completely ignores a customer for 40 minutes. The letter has been sent to corporate about the terrible customer service and the attitude of the manager. read more

Went in with questions about an AX-9 helmet. Walked out with gloves and boots. Tom helped me and when he stepped out a young lady took over and helped out. Top notch customer service. Took the time to make sure my gear fit perfect . Will definitely come back! read more

Came here to watch the MotoGP opening race last Sunday. The organizers had free food and drinks and were streaming the race live on Motogp.com. Management was super cool and hospitable. They also had a seating area and plenty of seats to sit. At the end they had a raffle. I'll be there to watch every race now. Thank you D Store for being such great hosts. Even though I didn't buy anything......lol read more

Went here wanting to buy a textile jacket for the hot summer days. Left with exactly what I wanted. Very wide selection of jackets, helmets, gloves, etc. I was assisted by a gentleman I don't remember his name but he was very helpful and welcoming as soon as I walked in the door. The prices are kinda steep though but thats to be expected at a high end name brand shop. Over all if you like Dianese brand then I recommend you check out this shop! read more
