Skivvies

Went in to see about receiving a gift basket. Well… not really… was told I had to buy the underwear at cost and then place a card of theirs saying that it came from them!!! ARE YOU NUTS??! that would mean that I paid for my own gift basket instead of the company making one for me to auction off. Don’t care if lost everything a donation is a donation not the the person buys your stuff n say its from you… next

The problem with this store and others in the Oak Lawn area are that if the staff finds you attractive, they go out of their way to help you — otherwise, forget it; they could care less. If I were the owner, I’d be clearing out some of the staff, so those left were there to help everyone, not just those that they hoped to score with.

There are few stores like this one. I had ordered men’s specialty underwear online for years, but when I walked in the door I became a customer for life.
The majority of it is men’s underwear and swimwear, which start around $ 10 but a lot of it can be $ 50 – 60 so is rather pricey, but you can literally «try before you buy» with the dressing rooms and buy locally rather than online.
Part of the store is dedicated to shirts and pants, along with belts, shoes, and other accesories. Shirts referencing the GLBT community are routinely available.
The staff is friendly and will often make helpful suggestions. Don’t be afraid or shy because they’ve seen just about everything there. Beware however that making returns may be difficult due to state laws governing underwear and swimwear, and other than some of the t-​shirt section, there may not be much for female shoppers, although the owners also own a gift shop next door that features mostly housewares. This is the all male version of «Victoria’s Secret.»
I am sad that the clearance center closed, however I suspect they will simply carry the merchandise upstairs and integrate it into «one stop shopping» so don’t forget to try the upstairs section. You may just find a bargain that fits.

Never have I seen so many pairs of undies. They got jocks, they got briefs. All sorts of brands and colors and oh my. Staff is very friendly too and it makes for a fun stop on the Strip.

Men’s Underwear Mecca.
AND there’s an outlet.
Staff is friendly and very knowledgeable. They’re going to joke and yes, be inappropriate. You’re buying novelty/​fetish men’s underwear. There are questions they have to ask if you need help and they’re not asking to be invasive. They can tell you that brand A has a better cut than brand B if you’re looking for a good fit in X region of your body. Feel free to ask questions. This was my 2^nd visit and my other half’s dunno, but the gentleman remembered us, making it a very pleasant experience.
The outlet store was just as great. Definitely a go-​to for specialty wants.

The Sunday staff is great! They are very attentive & give their honest opinion when you are trying items on. They also will pull another size if needed and will make suggestions. The store consistently has new items. This is my favorite store to shop for swimsuits, underwear & shirts!

Use to like this place a lot, they have a huge underwear selection and allow you to try before you buy. Use to be very friendly but not anymore. Felt very uncomfortable as if I was not allowed to look. Was willing to spend money but not when there seem to be non existing customer service.

Skivvies has an incredible selection of underwear, but honestly, as a woman there wasn’t much for me to buy for myself. In truth, I am writing this review because I was very offended by the customer service experience I received. On Friday in the middle of the day I went into Skivvies with a girlfriend of mine; we were looking for Christmas presents for our male friend, among other things, and the guy at the counter barely looked up when we approached. He was reading a magazine and acted like we were bothering him when he asked if he could help us. I told him that I was looking for t-​shirts, and he pointed to the front wall where a meager display of about eight shirts hung. We gave up on getting help and wandered by ourselves, and I ended up buying some scented soap. The next day we came back with two other friends, one of whom was a big burly ‘bear’-type male. Once again, a DIFFERENT man at the counter was not helpful or friendly to us and did not offer to help us find anything. He didn’t come out from behind the counter or anything to see if we needed help. We didn’t end up buying anything that time, and later that night we met with my gay best friend for dinner. I was telling him about the experience and how disappointed I was that I was unable to find a t-​shirt there. In surprise, he told me that there’s a whole upper level to the store full of t-​shirts and other items. BOTH visits I mentioned I was looking for a t-​shirt and NEITHER employee offered me any help. I am assuming that this is because I’m a woman and they figured that I wasn’t going to spend any money. (How wrong they were… I wound up spending $ 400 elsewhere on my friend’s present instead of spending it at Skivvies). I am a huge GLBT ally and have plenty of gay friends, and I spend a lot of time shopping in ‘gay-​centric’ stores. Rarely do I experience this level of coldness from the customer service department. What adds insult to injury is that about an hour after our dinner, my gay friend went into Skivvies himself— he told me later that the staff were swarming all over him, asking to help, making recommendations, and lavishing him in attention. So apparently it WAS «just us» and not those two cashiers having an ‘off’ day. Oh well— Skivvies has lost my business, and I will continue to shop elsewhere until they realize that ALL customers have value, not just the cute males.

So I decided to stop here and check this place out for something for my partner. The prices are «Chicago» in price (meaning high). I found T-​shirts (except the ones that say Dallas) that I can find in Chicago so I passed on those. The underwear section was huge! I gave this store four starts (instead of three) b/​c the guy working there (Robbie, I think) was so friendly and helpful. He seemed more like a good friend shopping with me then an employee. Very warm and inviting. I ended up buying a «trick» T-​shirt for myself and a Dallas T-​shirt for my partner. Maybe next time I will take his suggestion and by some underwear for myself since (in his words) «would be the perfect gift for him to see» :-)

I absolutely ***LOVE*** this place! The selection is unparalleled, there’s an entire clearance ROOM (not just one little rack) and the staff was super helpful. They knew just when to check on me and offer advice and when to leave me on my own, and they let me take my time trying everything on. And the location is great — right in the middle of the «Gayborhood» on Cedar Springs.
I visited Skivvies once before, several years ago, so I made sure to come back when I had a chance to visit Dallas again. I will definitely make a point of coming back next time I’m in town!

Great place for hotty sexy men’s undies and trendy street club wear. Have fun go at night after your cocktails for a undies shopping sprear.

Specialty stores can sometimes get stupid with cheesey carnival kitsch. Full body S&M body suit and a constant supply of «keep Dallas prententipus» tshirts represent the more interesting items on hawk. Some of the quality of this «gay male» apparel store seems a bit low, but the price tags for «pitcher» T-​shirts, underwear with nasty accoutrements, are nothing but.

I have been shopping there for a couple weeks. I had something to return and they refused. Who does that anymore? Haven’t they heard of taking care of the customer. It does say no returns but seriously I had the receipt and the tags on the pants.

I guess if it weren’t for gay men, underwear would not be such a profitable business. I can’t believe how big the underwear section of this store is — it’s pretty amazing.
But looking through everything else, I couldn’t find a single thing to buy (and I’m a consumer!). I saw a few cute t-​shirts, but nothing original or noteworthy.

OMG I love this store! Besides, men’s underwear stores are my weakness. Undies galore here! Not just undies… HOT undies… Not to mention expensive undies. AND the biggest collection of men’s underwear I’ve ever seen in America. They have bathing suits as well, and clothing and footwear, and a really cute and nice owner. The collection of male lingerie ranges from the conventional (and boring) boxers to scandalous thongs and g-​strings. Oh, FYI, this store is not related to
(I asked). I bought some cute underwear and undershirts here.
