But I have used this bag every day for the last month and it has delivered. The leather quality is nice and the inner lining is all top quality workmanship. You can tell when you examine the bags there. The man who sold me the bag was really helpful and nice. He provided me with a lot of options after hearing what I was looking for. You would think there would be tourist traps at the Lonsdale Quay but this store was fairly priced with great product sold here.

I liked Roots since they use to dress their Canadian Olympians at the Olympic Opening Games. Since they've distance themselves from the Olympics I still like their products. High quality, comfortable, rugged, casual and some items customed and embossed. The boots are stylish. Thick socks, sweatpants, tshirts, sweaters. It's all very cozy and warm. This shop is nice. Lots of room to walk around. The staff were helpful. While on the plane over I couldn't wait to get me a new Roots Toque for my travels. Found the perfect one.

I got an waistband, very light and versatile.

Came here with a friend to buy a luggage because they were visiting Vancouver for a week. And to be…read morehonest, they were extremely pleased and happy with it. I love this store the most because it has the best view of the mountains of the North Shore within Vancouver as a brick and mortar along Water Street. On top of that their store is just an art piece of its own. I was told it was designed by Omar Arbel, an architecture who is locally from Vancouver. The check out table, the sculptures, and the 4 seating table were all his designs and his inspirations. I love how a brick and mortar can bring such an experience when entering it. The service was fantastic too, as we entered the store we were greeted by the sales staff and then handed off to a proper person who knew the products very well. He kindly helped us and let us have time to look through the product. He wasn't hasty with us at all, but the other sales girls were. They were just so pushy, cuz I was just there to relax while my friends decided to just shop and make their own decisions. Anyways, they still bought the suitcase and we left the store with a fabulous tote at the same time, and a life time warranty on the suitcase for any damages and any defaults. A fantastic time regardless, I love the vibe here, just felt a bit pushed out of the store by the sales people.

On a recent sugar binge at Purebread, I spotted a stylish gent carrying a Frank & Oak brown paper…read moreshopping bag. Fifteen minutes, a few hundred calories, and a quick Yelp search later, I found myself standing inside of their beautiful Gastown store. First, it's hard not to be smitten by the space itself. Wood, brick, and steel seem to be Gastown staples, and this space blends the materials beautifully. At the same time though, cascading wall plants and some strategically placed trees make the space feel cozy. Factor in the ridiculously comfortable sofa near the dressing rooms, and you just might find yourself inquiring about a sublet. As for the main event, the clothing, the styles are mostly classic (with some welcome twists), the fabrics look and feel expensive, and the cuts are on the slimmer side. You can find everything from t-shirts and chinos to formal suits and sneakers (and pretty much everything in between). And the best part - the prices are actually reasonable. I have to give much deserved kudos to the wonderful staff, who made my shopping experience enjoyable from start to finish. Their patience and assistance while I seemingly tried on everything in the store was greatly appreciated. One final tidbit, make sure to enroll in their rewards program, which gives you back 4% of your in-store purchase for next-time. The credit never expires, and is stored electronically in their computer system for your convenience.

If you are in their store, it is most likely that you've chexked out their website already. My review is based on the customer service I received at the Gastown location. Me being an old dude, I'm use to shopping at GAP where the staff are smiling and super friendly despite on the stupidity of my questions. In this store, I got a blank look when I asked for helped, as if like a regular dude like me don't have clothing questions. The staff was unsure on what products were in promotion which is fine, if I was in their place I wouldnt remember either. It wasn't all that bad, but I just got a negative vibe from the staff almost as if they were lifeless and annoyed. Essentially, Frank and Oak staff in this store really need to smile and greet customers as if they like being there. No attitudes despite on shitty the day is going. The atmosphere in the place felt very snotty which does not make a good shopping experience. Regardless, I will continue to shop here and continue to ask questions so beware staff I will test your patience. I like their products and their prices are fair. Good day to you all!
