Kings is one of the few last bastions of streetwear boutiques, reminiscent of a long, bygone era of…read morestreetwear dating back to around 2009 to maybe the end of 2014. Nowadays streetwear trends have shifted, blurring the line between casual fashion and high fashion. It's made its way into high fashion, collaborating with major fashion heavyweights like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Dior, Vetements, etc. to list a few. Kings to me is what pure streetwear is all about at its core. No bots, no asinine reseller mark-ups, no insane pricetags, no bullshit. Just tried and true streetwear styles from iconic streetwear brands that have withstood the test of time. I'm thankful Kings and others like it still exist (Proper, BAIT, Bowls LA and Union are both kind of). I say kind of because Bowls opens whenever they want and Union definitely has a certain audience in mind with the brands they carry. Anyway, maybe I'm looking back at the history of streetwear with rose-tinted glasses, but there's no denying that the fact that a place like Kings can still thrive despite the fact that a lot of boutiques I used to frequent have either shifted to online exclusively or just shuttered their doors permanently is respectable. The fact that you can still walk into a place like this and get some sick drip without playing bullshit games and waiting for drops or buying bots to cop shit is something I truly appreciate. The staff is cool as always and if anything, their selection has improved over the years and they've definitely stepped up (heh) their shoe game as well. Anyway, my very long drawn out point is that Kings is still king when it comes to finding streetwear locally with an excellent selection. They carry all the brands; new and old. It's like Costco. You definitely aren't walking outta there with just a $5 rotisserie chicken. You're gonna walk outta there with a whole ass wardrobe if you haven't gone shopping in a VERY long time, like me.

I've visited this store several times and have always enjoyed my experience. However, during my…read moremost recent visit today, I witnessed an interaction between a manager/supervisor and an employee that I found very unprofessional and uncomfortable. While I understand that workplace issues need to be addressed, the employee was repeatedly spoken to in a degrading manner and was ultimately told to "go over there and do your thing." This interaction took place openly in front of coworkers and customers, making it difficult not to hear. In my opinion, this type of feedback should be handled privately and respectfully. Employees deserve to be corrected without being embarrassed or humiliated in front of others. I hope management will take this feedback into consideration, as the interaction significantly affected my otherwise positive impression of the store.

I bookmarked it because I definitely wanted to check it out. They offer fun little ladies nights where you can burn/decorate a hat and offer line dancing lessons to go with it! There was also a coffee vendor onsite. My girls and I wanted to check it out so I bought our tickets online for tonight's Cowgirl Social event. The line dancing took a little while to get going, so we grabbed matchas from the coffee vendor and they were incredible. The line dancing was SO fun! What a great teacher! Everyone here is so nice and helpful. We were given the option of the flat brimmed, cowboy or trucker hats. We each went with the cowboy hats. They were a little limited on colors since we were the second session, but we each got one we liked. You go through their stencils and iron on the artwork you choose. Then you use the soldering iron to burn the artwork into the hat. It was honestly so fun to burn the designs into the hats--kind of therapeutic in a way. I wanted to add some "bling" to my hat once I was done, and my youngest daughter did too. My oldest was happy with just the burning. The embellishments cost extra above the workshop price. The shop is also really cute with a lot of cute clothing and items. Such a fun place! We are already talking about coming back! Thank you, Dani!

I was disappointed and upset with my first experience. Arman contacted me and offered a full refund. I was taken back. No excuses he just said "I'm going to take care of you, don't worry. I'll give you full refund." No excuses, no sales tactics, just a call saying he's going to take care of me. Just wow. I ended up loosing the pants to the suit. Because how he handled all this, I was going to just go purchase another pants. But he ended up giving me a full refund anyway and told me to keep the top because I can still make an awesome wardrobe with it by pairing with different color bottom. He was right. I ended up buying a suit I wanted from him. I mean how can I go somewhere else at this point. Although it wasn't even an expensive suit that I purchased, he treated me like I was his VIP client. They say people don't remember what they say, they remember how someone made them feel, Arman made me feel like he REALLY cared. I haven't been this impressed by a business in awhile. What a pleasant surprise. From dissatisfied person who would never go to him, now I'm his client for life...

As I walked closer, all of its clothing and accessories had the retro look and feel to them. Cool! I walked in and went thru the racks. It's not a very big shop. Some of the clothing was interesting. I didn't find anything appealing except for this one shirt that says "Beam me up Scotty. This planet sucks." I had a big chuckle from it LOL. People who walked by chuckled at it, too. I didn't buy it because it was not large which is normally my shirt size. Also it was a $30+ shirt. I was thinking maybe I could find it elsewhere for cheaper. I ended up leaving the store empty handed, but maybe one day that shirt and I will meet again. Wait for me Scotty! LOL I didn't interact with any staff. If you're into retro clothing and accessories, this may be the place for you. Happy Retro'ing!

However I've noticed since I have had a baby and bring in a stroller, the employees follow me throughout the entire store. Last night was the third time this had happened and this was a bit out of control. I was in the back area and the male associate literally stood next to my stroller the entire time. He literally could've just pushed it. I was on one end and he was at the handles. Just standing there. The entire time. He was pretending to take photos but it was obvious he was just following me. Everytime I moved or stopped. He moved and he stopped. This store must have a lot of theft which is sad. But as someone who used to make multiple purchases in this store - I will no longer be frequenting. I don't know what type of profiling this is. Strangely my other friend with a stroller wasn't being followed. Whether it's because I have a stroller and they think I'm going to dump things in there or what, I'm an adult. With money and a baby. I don't need to steal. But I guess I'm not buying either.
