I’m always surprised by the selection and quality of Short Wave’s stuff for men! From great shirts to toiletries. I love my mushroom knife/brush combo and I recently bought some shaving soap and after shave. Both are great!

This is a lovely shop with a surprisingly large selection of useful and beautiful products. Something for everyone, from sustainable beauty to opinel knives (my fave). I don't enjoy shopping, but I enjoyed my visit here, where I found cool things I don't see in Portland.

Having followed Short Wave on Instagram for some time, I was pleased as punch to check them out when I finally made it to Astoria. I have since returned multiple times and it is somehow even cuter in person!They have so many unique goodies whether shopping for a gift or yourself: prints and other artwork, stationary, ceramics (including such cute mugs), art supplies (indigenous handmade paints!), bath and body items (Wato soap, yes please!), housewares, treats, adorable accessories and clothing, etc. Many items are local, too!They are always really friendly and nice in the shop, and it’s just such a pleasure to wander. I honestly think my mom, sisters, and I nearly spent an hour there.If you can, time it so you can check out the Sunday Astoria Farmers market while there. Parking is not great as it’s right in the middle of downtown Astoria, but that’s just the nature of the beast, and worth it!

Short Wave offers unique gifts of quality. I have purchased Opinel knives for particular people and they rave about them. I enjoy the jewelry and cards and the beautiful clothing. It's a joy to shop here.

Shortwave is a gem of a shop! The product selection is unique, beautiful and features mainly locally and ethically produced items. The vibes inside are cozy and calm. Astoria is lucky to have shortwave around! Would recommend anyone stop by.

Such a delightful store - even if I don’t buy anything, there’s always something beautiful to browse and so many great cards to read (but I usually find something I want). From slow fashion to natural beauty to art supplies, there’s a great mix of fun stuff!

My favorite shop in Astoria. I pop in a couple times a month at least and always find something new to love. Recent purchases include a beautiful glass vase, perfect enamel soap dish, linen cocktail napkins, and durable and adorable bookmarks. Ari is always looking for the best essentials, clothing and gifts to elevate everyday living, and does it with an eye toward sourcing and sustainability. Love it!
