A fantastic local skate shop with great knowledgeable employees. A young gentleman helped my son build his custom board and listened to him to help find the materials needed to get the style he wanted. He's very happy with his purchase and I am very happy that they treated him respectfully. 10/10

Awesome shop, tons of selection and great staff. I just got into skating recently and still lack some confidence in setting up and maintaining my own gear, the guys there helped me out and got me all set up. DSM skate community is great and Subsect is a big part of it.

I saw a local show here, bought my skateboard stuff here and appreciate it for the rawness it has. The owner doesn't try to upsell you on things, bargain, or pretend to be your friend for any reason. He's a very real person and I appreciate that especially starting out with skateboarding!

Super chill vibes. I’m from Omaha, NE. I went to Des Moines to hit up lauridsen skate park and the unimaginable happened…cracked my board within the first few hours of skating! Thank God Subsection Skateshop was within skating distance from the park because my girlfriend had my vehicle at Adventureland. Shop was super chill, they have a great selection of product and the dudes working were very knowledgeable about what they were selling and they even let the homie use their grip gum to clean his griptape. Went with the shop board and couldn’t have made a better choice. Comes with free jessup griptape and the board skates like a champ and has held up very well. Very impressed. Shout out to Subsect Skateshop for saving my skate sesh. Y’all were heroes in my book that day. Very good shop. Highly recommend checking it out if you are in the area. ??

Love the tough love from the owner for making my kid learn how to grip his own board! Definitely a skill you need if you're trying to make a career of it!

This skate shop is okay! But all be honest with you, Paying 30$ For a T-shirt is Ridiculous. This guy charges way to much For his stuff! And a lot oF his stuff isn’t all that great.

Take notes, on the List for any skateboard fan, Subsect Skateshop is a must stop in the East Village. From local artists supporting the Lauridsen Skatepark to miniature figures to antihero skateboards, this place is smoking. ? Don’t ask the eternal question why, you will be recognized if you go.

Love to see all the amazing reviews, wish we experienced that same level of service. Been in town twice for the park, visited the store both times, experienced the same aloofness/arrogance from the staff. Three stars given because their selection was amazing, otherwise I’d be inclined to give a one or two star review.
