Very good service with enjoyable people to help solve your problem faster! The prices and very cheap and i would always see discounts from 25%-50 off! What a deal. I saved alot of money compared to other places around my area and I must say this is the best. Its also very close to my location and I could walk there without a problem. But i prefer to drive.

These guys have been here forever. This is an old-school business and it breaks my heart to think they may not be there forevermore. But how do they survive? In any case, I like to support them, keep them alive. Plus, they save me money on new shoes. It’s a win-win, so patronize the nice cobbler folks.

Love love LOVE this place! You walk in and immediately you know, these people have an eye out for AMAZING denim. Drift isn't messing around, they carry lines that are the creme de la creme of premium denim. You won't find your run-of-the-mill denim labels here. No Sevens, no True Religions, not a Citizen in sight. No, instead you'll find incredible up and comers or cut and sew lines like 18th Amendment, Proportion of Blu, Cassette, Deener, Rag & Bone and Stephenson. For the men, the best in Selvage denim, like Takumi, Stronghold and Kicking Mule. There are also other goods in store aside from the denim. You can find hats, great handbags, and some sweet smaller label clothing lines to pair with your denim. Set in the heart of 'Old Oakland' this gem of a denim store is bringing the best and pulling out all the stops when it comes to denim in the East Bay. Trust me, you're gonna love it and the incredibly denim-educated staff will be there to walk you through the entire experience. Chances are, with these guys helping you, you won't leave empty handed and it won't be because they pushed some awful thing on you. It'll be because you looked amazing in their jeans and they knew you would.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Can't think of anything...except that maybe the fitting rooms need better light. But thats all!

I am renting a tux for my wedding in Wisconsin, but needed to get measured out here. I went to Siegel's and was helped with my measurements immediately. I know that if I was running a small shop, I would probably be a little irritated to help someone who wasn't a paying customer, but they were great (even with paying customers waiting to pick up their tux). Thanks for taking the time to measure me - hope many others will come check you out!

I love this shop!! I'm in my 20's and at first I thought they would only have comfort select type shoes that my grandmother would wear. I was very surprised to find shoes that were high fashion, red carpet ready. I was in heaven!!!! I found shoes in my size that were fashionable and comfortable. They are a little on the expensive side (around $60-$90 for high heels and $100+ for boots), but if you have a large size foot you know the difficulty of finding shoes, so they were well worth the price. I believe they go up to a size 13WW or triple wide. The quality is outstanding. I work at a specialty clothing store and a lot of my customers have a hard time finding shoes as well. I always send them here! Its a godsend! The associates are extremely helpful and very friendly.

there are SOOO many things & people i/we've missed living out of the US & it MAY be worse now that we are back..& in MS! we've been gone from the Bay Area for soo long & we keep trying to find jobs SOMEWHERE on the W Coast, if for no other reason than my best friend MIchelle, our hairdresser RAINBEAU!!, & IN FULL SWING.
yes, i DO miss the beautiful clothes. when we moved to panama, we moved forever (or so we thought); so i gave away my collection of non-handkerchief linen flax, Tencel, SS sweaters, etc. panama's dirty, harsh water & a washing machine that MUST have had ROCKS in it, it literally ate all that FLAX.
It was such a joy to shop at IFS: the clothing is incredible but the people there are part of my adopted family. i miss them even more than i miss FLAX & you know, that's a LOT!
if any of you happen to read this, i now have an address where you can send all those books. we'll pay for the shipping.

The folks who work here really know their stuff when it comes to fitting running shoes, and their other gear too. Also, they organize weekly runs in the community--good stuff!

I think this is one of the most amazing clothing stores in the bay area. The product is exceptional & so high quality. You can find the most unique items and feel confident that you are truly getting something special and individual. The owner clearly takes pride in her work and her boutique. The customer services is wonderful and the overall experience is amazing. I wish there were more boutiques like this. It makes shopping a pleasure!

So I'm training with the AIDS Marathon Training Program for the January 2006 Miami Marathon and this place has provided pretty much all I need. The people are very friendly and helpful. Their selection isn't huge, certainly doesn't compare to the Sports Basement in the Presidio, but it's SO convenient for the East Bay. Plus, I've been able to find all the cold and wet weather gear I need, shoes, shorts, GU and BodyGlide here. They offer a discount to any of the charitable training programs (AIDS Marathon, TinT) as well.
