Did not notice any service happening. Limted sizes like small and Meduim on some items. The owmer/manager responded to my review below by stating they are a small store and sell out of sizes since they only get 8 of each. They still have limted sizes. I am not sure if the "why" matters if you go shopping and wear a large and there are none. I was not able to view the size or price tags without having to fish for them and pull it out so I could see. I found it annoying when shopping since buying clothes is the main goal. It is not an art exhibit. Maybe they do not know what it is like to be short and not able to easily view the tags. It is amazing how are unaware people people are of size differences. Yes, you can set your store up however you want. Just not every one will find it user friendly.

I walked up to shoes I was in fact planning on buying and got yelled at infront of everyone that wa sin the store. I can tell our business wasn't welcomed off the bat which is extremely off putting in a store like this. To clarify there is no sign that says I can't try shoes on and when I asked the tender why there wasn't a sign they yelled at me and said "it's a respect thing" if you come in here not in all black expect this kind of treatment unfortunately. Total bummer being a visitor out of state and being treated this way when back home it's not like this at all.

From garments and gadgets to patches and posters there's something special here for everyone. A thoughtfully curated selection is an understatement. NC works directly and closely with the brands they carry and it's those kind of relationships that set shopping at NC apart. They know every style, stitch and story behind literally everything in the joint. Plus they manage to keep their prices in a range that fits all types of budgets. (I imagine they probably don't order certain items because they'd come with a hefty price tag. Talk about considerate!) It's for these reasons that it's especially important to acknowledge and support businesses like Naked City. PS. I live in PDX, but their website is so easy to shop that I opted to by a piece online for free local pickup. It was ready before the charge hit my bank account. I also picked up a few things in store. Thanks again team!

However, for the 2nd time this same individual was condescending, very catty, and clearly doesn't seem to care as much about the purpose of her position as a salesperson as is importance of satisfying her fragile little ego in being disrespectful to another woman. I will consider purchasing again here if I don't have to deal with the attitude & I imagine if this happened to me the culprit in question is this way to other people & it just lost a sale & probably lost a few others. And to put a fine point on it I am ALWAYS respectful to my fellow ladies.

Upon walking into the store, the staff is incredibly friendly. The only thing a bit odd is that it smells like cigarette smoke throughout the store. I believe that is their signature incense but the first couple of times I visited, I assumed that there were people in the back room smoking. The layout of the store is easy to navigate and the minimalistic approach to their displays is a welcome change from your typical overwhelming shopping experience. Rather than display every size they have in every style they offer, they only display one size of each style. I appreciated that because it made for a much simpler shopping experience. Additionally, their sneaker selection is amazing. Every time I go in, there are a few new styles to look at. This is probably my favorite spot for finding some cool sneakers. We will continue to go back to the store for their unique styles, incredibly helpful staff, and amazing selection of footwear.

I'm kind of surprised this is the first review, as Wool&Prince (https://woolandprince.com/) is the…read morepredecessor to and current brother company of wool& (https://wooland.com/), which *totally* has a cult following. (W&P used to sell both men's and women's clothing; now W&P largely sells to men and wool& to women, though ofc you can pick whatever you want from either company.) I know this because I've acquired 4 figures' worth of their clothing since finding them during the pandemic 3 years ago! And I'm not even among the most diehard by a clear margin! Am I made of money? Alas, no. I gained some weight during the pandemic, but ofc still wanted/needed to dress presentably for work, preferably *at least* as comfortably as I had been. I started rehauling my wardrobe twice. The first time wasn't as expensive or time-consuming, bc even though I needed some new pieces, I only sort of liked what I was finding to buy. Around a year later I found wool&, absolutely did like them a lot, and one piece led to another. I bought their clothing for myself and other people and when asked, requested items as Xmas gifts. Before I knew it, most of my wardrobe and most of what I wear is now merino wool with a reasonable percentage of synthetics for durability. A lot of people have had their clothing/laundry lives changed by finding clothing that suits their lifestyle. What I and a lot of "woolies" tend to like about high-merino blends is that they're very comfortable on my skin, breathable, and don't need to be washed as often as other fabrics to feel and smell fresh. Fine, thinly spun and woven wool actually feels cooler to me than the spendy linen dress I bought the year before, while thicker wool, worn in layers, is warmer than most synthetics I've tried, and easier to care for than cashmere. Basically, I've found styles that suit me and wear almost every day, and I feel fairly confident after 3 years that this is a sustainable way for me to dress. I've downsized but not eliminated my former wardrobe -- I kept my former favorites, some suits and formal wear, and beat up clothing that I'd be ashamed to donate to do chores and putter around in. So am I largely done clothes shopping/optimizing my wardrobe? Well, I'd like to downsize/streamline more, and make some alterations to some of my wool (as a petite-short, most clothing I buy could use some tweaking). But I'm holding off bc my pandemic weight is still coming off, so my new-ish almost-there wardrobe may not be. But this is not as bad as it sounds - bc wool& has such a dedicated following, there are sizable fb groups including BST (buy-sell-trade) groups. So sells/swaps are totally an option. Yup, this is a HUGELY LONG review with no photos (yet). But you can see photos on wool& (https://wooland.com/collections/all) and W&P (https://woolandprince.com/collections/all). If you tap into specific items, there are often photos from actual customers, so you can see the clothes on people who aren't models. The company doesn't have brick-and-mortar storefronts, so you can't go try on their clothes. But shipping and returns for store credit are free in the US. One thing I'll note is most people find the merino blends loosen/stretch a bit after a few hours or a few days of wear. So when in doubt, size down, or ask customer service or many helpful woolies for help! The official fb group for wool& is https://www.facebook.com/groups/wooland100daychallenge . I'm not part of W&P's fb group if there is one? The last thing I'll mention is both wool& and W&P are known for their 100 Day Challenges (yes, they're *that* company). Each customer can do a lifetime total of one of these (*not* one from each company), where they wear the same challenge-eligible garment for 100 days and take a picture each day. You launder and dry overnight as needed - wool dries surprisingly quickly! The reward from wool& is a $100 wool& gift certificate - you can find current rules here: https://journal.wooland.com/post/2020/5/1/100-day-dress-challenge, for W&P it's https://woolandprince.com/blogs/everyday-merino/your-next-shirt-could-be-on-us. While I've easily worn wool& garments for 100 consecutive days, I haven't worn the same garment nearly so long (but would have no objection to doing so - I'd just make sure to start at a good time, so the dress I chose made sense for the entire run). But from doing shorter challenges for $10-20 rewards, I know I lack the starchy moral fiber to take selfies daily for 100 days without getting at least a bit stressed and unhappy about it. If you're made of sterner stuff, those challenges are a great way of getting tons of mileage from your first wool& / W&P piece, followed by a huge discount on your second!

They have a few dressing rooms and not a lot of places to sit to try on shoes. Looking them up later, they're a national chain but this is their only PNW location.
