Alright, this review is for the San Diego Fleet Store (Uniform NEX) on wetside 32nd Street base.
This NEX is just fine, nothing special, nothing bad. The employees are nice and helpful enough, the store is always clean, and they usually have everything in stock. If you're active duty specifically, you can find boots, uniforms (all kinds - Type III, whites, blues, PTU, etc), navy pride gear, snacks, a GNC, and some basic household stuff (detergent, hygiene stuff, towels) here. There is often a line as this NEX is close to pier 6 on the waterfront, and Sailors are here at all times of the day picking up random things. There is also tailoring here, which is helpful particularly if you're buying new uniforms, but it often takes a couple weeks, and it's never ready until about 6pm on pick up day (which is annoying). I've taken things here on a few occasions, and every time except once, at least one thing was wrong/incorrect/improperly done. If you're looking for tailoring, I would recommend the LC Embroidery trailer right outside 32nd street gate on Harbor Drive.
Overall, this NEX is fine, it has what you likely need, but it's nothing special. Very uniform heavy (because it's a fleet store). read more
