Regarding Fresh

I've been getting my streetwear fix on trips to visit the fam in Los Angeles and via Internet shopping. No more! We originally visited the Baton Rouge location, as it is the only one listed as an official The Hundreeds stockist, and were informed while shopping that the original store location was in New Orleans. So when we came home, we visited as well. Because you know. That makes sense and all.Located on N. Peters right across from Canal Place and next to Coyote Ugly, re:fresh is the kind of store that seems right at home on Fairfax Avenue in the Melrose district, passed by by tourists and sought out by skater/streetwear kids looking to get their hands on a limited selection of The Hundreds, Billionaire Boys Club, Bathing Ape (!!!!), and Dee & Ricky (who made a recent appearance leaving behind a rare selection of their coveted Lego goods). I think we even spotxed some Mighty Healthy in there?? Great selection of sneakers, carefully culled, and not just Nikes. Excellent customer service by an extremely friendly and helpful staff, ready to chat up labels, prices, and grab a size before you even ask. They host events in the space, apparently, and co-host others elsewhere, most recently of interest, the official Drake Jazzfest after party. Prices are exceedingly reasonable, although you should not be expecting single digit deals. Supporting small independent labels and small stores has its price: high. However, in one day, over two locations, we bought 3 tees, a button-up, and a pair of shoes, all at discounted prices, and coming out to less than $150. I look forward to coming back and checking out what lines take the place of the current table of discounted winterwear!

Great little trendy shop with neat clothes and accessories. I bought a black, gauzy scarf to tie around cause it was chilly walking through the French Quarter.One star short of perfect because they're a little overpriced and it's difficult to find sizes above 10.

Ordered a jacket online for $988. It arrived slightly damaged (minor snags-but at that price I want a perfect piece). No refund policy. No communication. Worst company ever. Stay away at all costs. Edit: just received a long message from the team at RegardingFresh after they read my review. My apologies, I mentioned the item I purchased for $988, they allowed to sell me the item at $889.20 because that's how much it was on the actual designers website. Re:Fresh is great before a purchase is made. They'll help you with sizing and be responsive to your inquiries. Once the purchase is made, you're on your own. As mentioned, the item had snags on it. I am very supportive of small boutiques and businesses--and this is why I initially decided to make the purchase through Re:Fresh rather than the actual designer's website. Don't make the same mistake I did. Every other company/website will be willing to work with you, offer a sale price, do anything in their power to satisfy a customer--even if they cannot take the defective item back. Re:Fresh did the opposite. They actually gave me a call after I emailed them in regards to the defect--but...they said they would discuss the issue amongst each other and call me back. I never heard back from them. Long story short--Notre-Shop, REVOLVEClothing, Ssense, XHIBITION, ReviveMi, Unknwn and AzaleaSF---shop there rather than here.

Not a good company. No care whatsoever for customers. Not gonna waste my time with this one
