I've known Randy, the owner for over 40 years and supply him with my surfboards. He is…read moreknowledgeable and cares about his customers. Pretty much a one man show that still believes in offering customized service to people. If he doesn't have it, he will either get it for you or direct you to the best place to pick it up. To me, that is service above & beyond. Maybe the guy bad rapping him in another review got him on a bad day. Or maybe he had someone filling in for him. Randy is generous & active in the Ventura community supporting non profit charities and individuals in need. That says a lot about a friend and business associate I admire & respect. -Bruce Fowler

Fortunately, Randy was still alive and well, and able to design a board for me, send the specs to the shaper, and get me my new stick, including packing and boxing it up for me within the twelve days I had before heading back to South America. I've been surfing for more than 60 years, surfed and lived all over the surfing world, and I either purchased or had Randy design boards that I'm fortunate to have in my quiver. He's a great guy, fun to be around, and Wave Front has the vibe of surf shops from back in the days when they did nothing but talk surfing and make finely crafted surfboards.

This flagship Patagonia store, which is located next-door to their corporate headquarters slightly…read moreto the northwest, is done so well and really exudes the same Patagonia style that you see in their products. To give some context you will see Great Pacific Iron Works written across the top of the store, which was Patagonia's first store, opened in 1973 in the former Hobson meat-packing plant, near Chouinard's blacksmith shop, which is another product line and name you'll see often in their clothing. This part of Ventura is extremely sleepy so it's very easy to find a free street spot and there is also some EV charging available as well. The staff here is very friendly and always very attentive so it's one of the best parts about visiting. There are many different rooms inside divided by product type and there is even a tiny little museum area with all sorts of pictures and facts about the former building and Ventura. One of my favorite things about coming here is they tend to have some Ventura specific, or limited run products that you won't see in some of their larger bigger city stores. So you can really find some stuff that would otherwise be hard to find online or out of state. I try to stop here every time I pass through Ventura and would recommend to anyone else to do the same. They have products for men, women, and children, so there really is something for everyone.

I had an extremely disappointing experience today at Patagonia. I came in for what should have been…read morea very simple exchange of an unworn jacket, but the interaction was immediately made uncomfortable by an employee named Maddie. From the start, she was rude, combative, sarcastic, and unnecessarily aggressive throughout the entire process. Instead of simply helping resolve the issue professionally, I was met with attitude, condescending remarks, and an overall hostile demeanor that made the experience far more difficult than it needed to be. As a customer, I expect basic courtesy and professionalism -- especially from a company that prides itself on customer service and brand values. The exchange itself was straightforward, yet Maddie handled it in a way that felt confrontational and unwelcoming from beginning to end. It honestly left a terrible impression of the store and the company overall. After being a customer for nearly 30 years and a brand ambassador for this company, I truly never expected to be treated this way. If this is the type of people Patagonia chooses to employ to represent their brand, I do not believe I will be moving forward with purchasing their products in the future. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience absolutely warranted one.
