I couldn't go anywhere else and feel like I got better service. I'm planning to purchase a custom hat in the future and will be honored to have it made here.

I can't say enough good about Keryn. Lots of us know her by the nickname, "the Hat Girl," courtesy…read moreof Ray Appleton, and her reputation is deservedly growing by leaps and bounds. Her work with hats is stunning, and her custom work impresses everyone who sees it. In my case, I had a 1920s-30s Stetson Boss of the Plains hat I picked up for $10 that was in such faded, worn shape (plus had a bad ring of sweat damage) it was questionable whether it was suited for anything other than the trash can or nailing up as wall art, but after hearing Ray brag about her, I looked her up and asked if she might be able to do something with it. You'll see the before and after results below. At a modest price she was able to breathe life back into this Thrift Shop reject and it's good enough now to wear and actually look nice. I point out she could have taken it further, but I told her I only wanted some improvement and didn't want to spend much on it, and you can see what she was able to accomplish. Let's just say I and my friends are impressed with what she can do. You'll love Keryn if you meet her (everyone does), and I guarantee she can handle any felt hat need you can throw at her. You'll just need to be patient because word is out, lol. I don't know of anyone else around here who can match what she does. The only other source I'd use for custom hats is in Las Vegas, so we're lucky to have her in Fresno! Highest recommendation for quality, service and friendliness.

I went in here skeptical to find anything but pricey Levi's, cowboy hats, & collared shirts. However, I was delighted to find mens' long-sleeved t-shirts with a pocket on the front for $12/each. My dad is a lifelong pocket on the t-shirt fanatic & he was elated to have these t-shirts. However, the first two I took home were too small so I was able to return them & get something different & pay the difference when they didn't have 2 shirts of the same style in the size I needed. They also advertise local events & sell these really awesome dog treats called dogs dig 'em which are made locally by women in recovery through the St. Francis Homeless Projects. My dog enjoys these treats & I would go back just to get more. If you're looking for an old-fashioned men's clothing wear store with semi formal, western, & casual wear, this is the place for you.

Sports stores are a mixed bag for my anyway. Ever since "authentic" jerseys and such have been…read morepopularized, I've never really been able to afford new sports apparel. So, I usually just window shop and see what they have for my beloved New York teams. That's where I have to give them credit. Yeah, they have dodger and giants stuff; but you can always find nice Mets stuff there too. Same for the niners and raiders; they do have Giants stuff. Decent variety. They don't seem to discount much beyond players who have changed teams, ie Jeremy Lin Knicks jerseys. Friendly staff though. I always peek in there. Just wish I had more money!

Horrible customer service…read more I went into the store on Monday, explaining to the 2 associates I was purchasing a hat for my son for his birthday. The 2 people in the store - told me I could return the hat no problem if the hat did not fit. They talked me into getting the hat steamed. The hat ended up not fitting my son - so I returned to the store the same day and the 2 associates that helped me were not in the store. The person working in the store "Brandon" told me that the person who told me doesn't normally work in the store so he probably just gave me misinformation and the other guy is new. Both issues- that should not affect whether they accept my return - because that's what I was told by THEIR team members. The person " Brandon" who said he was the manager - was not helpful - and just continued to tell me he would not take back the hat and not give any kind of resolution to the problem.

They greeted us as soon as we came in and asked if they can help us look for anything in particular. We were asking them about their buying terms and conditions. There are specific shoes that may qualify for customers to sell their shoes there. That's a good way for someone to make some cash back on their shoes as long as it wasn't beat up. They have a team of people that would authenticate the shoes and clean them before selling the used shoes. They also have a large selection of brand new shoes and clothing as well. I'm not a big fan of sneakers so paying hundreds of dollars on a pair of shoes is not for me. However, my husband definitely wears a lot of different sneakers and takes really good care of his shoes. He really liked the idea that he can wear his shoes a couple of times and then sell them. So, when we got home, who was in their closet going through his shoes to sell? I guess we are going back this evening or tomorrow morning! Better that it's cash back in my pocket instead of them sitting in the closet in a box to collect dust.

My birthday had passed, & they offered a free tee with any purchase. Sadly, I couldn't make it. The store contains street fashion, (be aware this is men's clothing), & it's up to date. They carry graphic designed clothing & name brands such as "Cookies" & "Thrashers", if you're wondering what is in store. They also carry essentials such as hats & the latest shoes. I have been back twice ever since & doing my best not to go every week to break my own pockets. Love the store, & you won't find much of these in the mall & more than likely if you have patience, you may order online.
