This isn't your standard thrift store--you probably won't find any clothes for less than $5, but you also won't need to inspect for stains or holes. The women's business suits (with labels like Anne Klein, DKNY and maybe even Dolce & Gabbana) are good deals, with prices starting at $40. The men's suit choices--many tweed or pin-striped--look rather outdated. Scour the small shoe rack to uncover Nine West, Aldo or Prada heels starting at $15. Don't overlook the notable selection of books for adults and children.

This homegrown shop specializes in locally made sweatshirts, T-shirts and tanks for men and women. The silk-screened images celebrate San Francisco street life, like a bright-orange graphic of the Fillmore 22 bus line, portraits of local DJs and silhouettes of unique urban settings, such as a pickup game of basketball in a neighborhood schoolyard. Zip-up sweatshirts with stylized lettering spelling out of neighborhoods like the Mission, Sunset and Fillmore run about $50, while tanks and T-shirts are around $20

Vault showcases the best of local design with Lemon Twist and Nice Collective for men and women. In addition to a sizable stock of Levi's Red, Fornarina and Miss Sixty, a small selection of shoes and accessories are available. Self-proclaimed label junkies delight in Gucci sunglasses and all things Diesel. And for those with deep pockets, the sales staff is in turn, quite delightful. But don't expect the same treatment if you don't radiate a moneyed look, as commission-hungry employees won't turn on the charm for just anyone.

Some new clothing is available, but with the same requirements of its vintage collection: top quality and a post-war vibe. Reproduced Hawaiian shirts are as close as possible to the real thing, but with a price tag running around $50 instead of $500. DaVinci '50s-style shirts fall in the same price range. For women, there's a wonderful selection of cocktail dresses, mostly priced under $100, and an impressive selection of Bakelite jewelry (bangles from $20-$135).

John Fluevog makes the coolest shoes, and if you're lucky enough to catch a sale - these shoes are totally worth it. I spent $500 in one shoe sale here, and they are all so comfy and totally hip!
John Fluevog started out as a hippie-era dealer in unworn 1910s footwear, branching out into his own designs as the vintage stocks dwindled. He soon gained a reputation as a purveyor of inventive, funky shoes and boots decorated with swirly art nouveau stitching. New designs are infrequently introduced, though Fluevog will riff on a successful design like the (allegedly Satan-resistant) Angelic line, which comes in various boot and brogue styles. Girlie shoes are sassy and often '30s-inspired, suggesting something Betty Boop might slip on before a wild night on the town, while the fellows can wiggle into the pointiest winkle pickers this side of Liverpool 1962

I cannot imagine myself shopping in Hayes Valley. For one, if you're not a stick figure, none of the clothing will fit you. And the sales people? Well, could they be any more snide?

I walked by this store a million times, but after seeing the website, I went in - they have great body lotions (Thymes!) and a ton of vera bradley bags. I ended up getting some beautiful pjs and cozy robe for my mom and a very cool scarf and candle for my friend. A nice Pac/Pres Heights find!

1. ... if the staff were either friendly or helpful. Instead, they cop an attitude and would not give a tour of facility, even though it was my first visit to that location.
2. ... if the televisions worked. Only half had stations listed to tune your radio to - but, nothing came through anyway. No one in the whole facility had any knowledge of how their TV system works.
3. ... if the cleaning staff didn't spray chemicals while you were changing.
4. ... if they would turn down their loud music so those of us with headphones could listen to ANYTHING else.
5. ... IF their sound system did not interfere with normal radio reception. I could neither listen to my radio program, NOR tune into their TV. All their signal did was send interference. It was a nightmare gym experience.

Sure it is a little more expensive than some other clubs and not as exclusive as some private clubs, but all in all it has what I needed. The squash courts are good and because they limit the number of members it is usually possible to get a court. The classes are great with very professional staff and a great yoga studio. The renovated locker rooms are also very nice.
