4106 E Anaheim St, Long Beach“Linda literally saved the day! I came in looking for a dress last minute. I told her the theme of the event, & she instantly knew exactly what dress would fit me best. I had noooo idea what I was looking for, so her getting it on the first try was so impressive. She also helped me find the perfect accessories for the dress, tailored it for me (I’m 5’4 so the dress was dragging before her hemming it lol), & worked with my short turnaround time. 1000/10 experience! Call in advanced for an appt.”
“Only thing I was disappointed in was extended sizes. If they made 5xlt I'd go broke at this store! I did pick up what I could, and I hope to be back sooner than later!”
“Recently purchased an Omega Speedmaster watch from this company, and I couldn't be more impressed. Not only did they ship it overnight, but the service throughout the entire process was exceptional. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction have won me over, and I'll definitely be a repeat customer. Highly recommended!”

2141 N Bellflower Blvd, Long Beach“Umberto’s is in the business of creating family, and their family has a LOT of history. My husband now has three suits and a tuxedo from Umberto’s, and he’s as comfortable in them as he is in his cargo pants—which is quite a confidence boost—and makes each memory even more special because he can relax. The suits are lovely, the tailoring exquisite, and the staff are wonderful and knowledgeable. They’ll help you find whatever you’re looking for, and have good suggestions or tips when you’re in need. They were even able to hem a formal gown for me! (Gino, the head tailor, is a truly a maestro! A magician with a needle!) As I’ve said to anyone who will listen; they’re worth EVERY penny.”
“The best clothing store. Very nice shirts and hats. Nice designs and great quality. Shout out to Jason for always being nice, friendly, and helpful. The best place to get Long Beach gear.”
“Dead Rockers is probably my favorite punk shop in Southern California. I'm an east sider, but always take the time to come over here to Long Beach to visit this cute spot. They have a fantastic selection of everything from pins, to records, to shirts and leather jackets. The vibe in this store is fabulous and there is literally something for everyone here. Such a treat to have a spot like this that I can come to do in-person shopping. Prices are super reasonable and the staff is very helpful as well!”

5232 2nd St, Long Beach“Dropped in this weekend to get a pair of shoes. I didn't catch his name, but the guy who assisted me was super helpful and nice. Long ponytail and sweet ear gauges. Store was clean, bright, and picked up a t-shirt as well. Thanks 2nd Street Vans!”
“I had a great experience selecting and purchasing hats here. First of all they have a great selection and everything is very organized. The staff is also very friendly and provided lots of info. I was able to try out different styles and ultimately got 5 hats that were different fits and styles that I wouldn't have previously tried out. Definitely coming back here for more.”
“We originally came in to find my husband an outfit for sweetheart night and let me tell you we were blown away with the customer care and hospitality we encountered. My husband was feeling shy about going in due to his size but let me tell you right away we were welcomed and greeted with the biggest sweetest smile. Jay was super helpful and went above and beyond. He made my husband feel comfortable and secure about himself. DXL gain a loyal customer today who will do all his shopping at this location. Thank you so much for hiring great people like Jay because they are seriously very few out there like him.”
“I was visiting on vacation and needed a pair of shoes. Found some Adidas that were comfortable. The owner assured me if I had any issues that he would help. He seemed very nice. I paid cash. 5 months later they are falling apart. Adidas won't warranty without a receipt, and the owner says he can't get me a receipt past 60 days- despite me knowing the exact day and time I was there. Kinda frustrating that I can't get help now that I actually need it. Who keeps a receipt for their shoes?
I gave 4 stars because when I called he at least offered to try to see what he could do if I came back in to the store. Too bad I live in another state. His customer service is certainly better than Adidas! Lesson learned. Take a picture of every receipt!”

438 E 1st St, Long Beach“Nestled in the vibrant heart of Long Beach, the 1897 Long Beach Homegrown store stands as a testament to the creative vision of local artist Jose Mercado, known widely as Dire. Since the early 1990s, Dire has been crafting fine art, and now he channels that seasoned artistry into a distinctive clothing line: Long Beach Homegrown.
The store itself exudes a raw, authentic vibe that's palpably connected to the city's eclectic culture. As you step inside, you're greeted by an array of clothing that perfectly embodies the spirit of Long Beach. Dire’s influence is unmistakable in every piece, with designs that beautifully fuse classic and contemporary styles. His ability to keep the line fresh while maintaining a timeless appeal is evident, with new styles that consistently capture the essence of street fashion.
What sets Long Beach Homegrown apart is not just the artistic flair of its designs but also the exceptional quality of the merchandise. Each item feels crafted rather than made, with attention to detail that speaks volumes about the durability and comfort of the fabrics used. This commitment to quality is undoubtedly why Dire’s creations quickly sell out.
The popularity of Long Beach Homegrown is also a reflection of Dire’s reputation in the community—a beloved local artist who has stayed true to his roots while evolving his artistic expression. This store is more than just a clothing outlet; it's a piece of Long Beach culture, offering locals and visitors alike a taste of homegrown artistry woven into wearable form.
Whether you’re in search of everyday wear that stands out or a unique piece to showcase your personal style, 1897 Long Beach Homegrown offers something special. Dire continues to bless the fashion scene with innovative designs that resonate deeply with his audience, making every purchase a collectible piece of Long Beach’s vibrant artistic legacy.”
“Five stars ⭐️ only because Phillip was so friendly and so helpful! He really carried the team as the other ladies working there (on Thursday morning) at the time were neither friendly nor helpful, rather rude actually. Maybe they were having a bad day ??♀️.”
“I was at a store nearby and stumbled across Madewell and I'm so glad I did. A friend had mentioned the brand to me before as she knows that company is with sustainability practices are important to me. The staff here were above and beyond! Good customer service is so hard to find these days and increasingly important in an internet shopping driven world. The girls made me feel super welcomed to try on as many clothes as I wanted and I ended up buying a lot of them! I believe I worked with the store manager her name was Airica. She made my shopping experience so enjoyable, made really great recommendations, let me know where I could find alternative colors online, got me alternative colors and sizes to try on, and made me so excited for all of my purchases. Highly recommend coming in store for this shopping experience!”
“I was being followed by a homeless person who was obviously high on drugs and these nice people let me go inside and hid me until my husband sent an Uber for me. Thank you so much. I was so scared.”

4718 2nd St, Long Beach“My new favorite store! I could easily spend my whole paycheck in an hr here. Yesterday I purchased a candle with real amethyst crystals in it for added relaxation, let them eat cake hand cream which makes you want to eat your own fingers, a beautiful sun hat, etc. I will be back next week. This store has diverse, one of a kind pieces. I also purchased a bowl made by a local artist from sea glass ? The staff is lovely, the pieces can't be found elsewhere, and I promise there is something for everyone!”

Opens at 11 am
My family and I came to eat locally. The business was closed, so I took the opportunity to go window shopping, so I thought of private sneakers.
I'm a huge fan of New Balance shoes, low and behold they had multiple on display, even a new style new balance
I have often wondered what lies behind these closed doors. When I say closed I mean locked ! As we went to open the door. Low and behold, Manny unlocks the door! I had to ask why they were locked. Unfortunately, folks can walk in and out without paying. So doors are kept locked.
Personally, I enjoyed my 40-minute shopping experience alone with my family having Manny to ourselves to ask questions regarding New Balance shoes. I may have never bought one pair, let alone two pairs, without his personal assistance.
I seen these very new new balance shoes, half open grey shoes on the shelf. Manny mentioned these were their newest in store. He brought me 3 different pairs until I had the perfect fit. I'm taking them @ $150.00
Manny did the same for my mother in law. She was a bit more challenging in shoe. You see, she is petite with the smallest foot I've ever known for an adult. Manny brought several different new balance shoes. He finally brought out a 4 1/2 new balance 9060 in dark blue shoe (kids) @ $110.00. Add those to my order as well.
Why I like new balance shoes they come Wide, I have a big wide foot. The stability, balance, and shock absorption. Overall, quality shoes are out the door.
Overall experience with Manny and Johnny 5 stars, Atmosphere was poppin' when I was not taking photos I was dancing. The beats were great. 5 stars

“This hot topic is the best place out of all the locations. Their atmosphere and respect for the customers is outstanding! Wish they would be given the privilege to get more stocks of pops. Not to mention it’s right next to the BEACH where you can get the best views of the Pacific Ocean that people in other countries wish and dream of experiencing to see. Overall this hot topic is the best location to visit. Someone needs to tell corporate to bless them with more stocks!”
“If you’re looking for an aftermarket moto shop that carries their own branded merch this is the place. The owner carries lifestyle clothing, riding gear, parts and accessories, and the entire team are all very friendly and knowledgeable.”
