anyone here shop at J2 /sneaker box

[canuckshockey]

anyone here shop or bought clothes from J2 or sneakerbox in metro, richmond or oakridge. what you think of their clothes? i liked a varisty jacket they had that was called ninjas rocksmith but was like 175 . kind of pricey since i paud 140 for a danier leather jacket last year and it was full leather.

i find its mainly for younger ppl like in college or under 25. im 32 and i found the jacket dont look so good on me

i do have to say their fashion looks nice but why is the prices so expensive at the stores.

if im not mistaken j2 is marked up quite a bit. a lot of their stuff can be found online for much cheaper prices.


i just bought a rocksmith explicit pom beanie online for 10$ shipped to my door. i don't know how much they sell it at J2 but im going to guess $30-$40.

If you like the brands carried in J2/Sneakerbox, buying at those two stores is dumb. They really spike up the prices unnecessarily. Save hundreds of dollars by buying online; hell even Outfitters has cheaper/better stuff than both of them.

I've had 2 unique experiences with that store - one was a bad experience and the other is quite humorous.

Back in high school, being the financially immature kid I was, I bought a sweater off them for $130. A day later, two of the buttons fell off. I took it back and the owner sewed them back on, only to have them fall off a couple days later. I decided to just return the sweater and get a refund, but when I went, the owner says the item is now on sale and could only refund me the listed sale price. It was the first time I've ever bitched out a company (but certainly not the last) for having a total disregard for customer satisfaction and loyalty.

The second time, I went there and found a Wesc jacket I liked. It was being sold at J2 for $120 + tax. I take a look at the tag, retrieve the item number, googled it, and found it on Wesc's website for $60 shipped to my door - I then spent the next 4 minutes bargaining with the store owner to match the price but to no avail

TLDR Fuck J2 and their lets-shit-on-our-customers culture and overpriced items

no offence but im gonna guess you haven't worked in retail before? the first scenario is normal but the second one is just plain annoying.

joe45, why are u keep making accounts on RS

I use to shop at J2 when Crooks & Castles was still hot but now they're stuff is just too overpriced. I find some of there stuff cool and unique but not worth the price tag.

Shit I just bought a Herschel bag from J2

most of their clothes are too ridiculous and for overpriced for casual wear

but damn Joe, you're 32 now? time flies

[blee123]

the sales at J2 are usually pretty weak compared to other stores too
always 20-30% discount max on well known brands...
