Odin

Odin’s definitely become one of my favorite clothing stores in the city. They offer stylish duds from the likes of Engineered Garments, Thom Browne, and Burkman, as well as their own label of quality items. They also carry shoes from Oliver Spencer and Bespoken. I noticed they have a large selection of fragrances and skin care products, but I didn’t pay a whole lot of attention to the display. In any case, I found a really cool pair of Oliver Spencer shoes that I absolutely loved.
I know others have said service was below par, but I cannot complain at all about the service i received. The dude greeted me when I walked in and was super friendly and helpful overall. He knew the products very well, unlike at some of these other stores. Just by the designer labels, things are definitely on the higher end pricier side. I guess that I just feel fortunate that I don’t have a place like Odin at my disposal in fashion deprived Milwaukee, otherwise I’d go bust.

I had the worst retail experience I have ever had in this store. I was walking by and thought I had discovered this wonderful new find. I browsed around, no salespeople approached me, they we deep in conversation with each other. I walked up to the colognes and started smelling them. I came to the one called «Odin #7″. I asked a salesperson how much it was. He replied,“It’s $ 125.00 but it doesn’t matter because we are out of stock. It was named cologne of the year and now everybody wants it». He rolled his eyes as he said that. Then he said that he had no idea when they might get more but I could try other locations of the store. I thanked him and left.
I decided to see if I could find the cologne online. I found it at
. I ordered it. My credit card was charged. The date was 1÷29÷13. I didn’t get a shipping email and after a few days I emailed them to find out the status of the order. The confirmation email I originally got said that they «try» to answer questions in 24 to 48 hours. No one answered so I called the customer service number. The person I spoke to said that she didn’t have access to order information but I could call another # and speak to someone else. Well I have been calling that number for days and don’t get any answer. So I have sent off another email and am waiting for an answer.
The cologne smells great and I am looking forward to finally getting it but I would never, ever, ever deal with them again. The customer service stinks. I am in retail as well and know that any store can have an off day so I write this harsh review after giving it much thought. I don’t think they were having an off day I think they just have the worst customer service ever and think they can get away with it because they have some great products.

The concept is fine, but each time I walk in, the blank-​eyed mannequins who work there are either in deep conversation with each other, or on the phone. When the guy working called the other store to see if they had a jacket in my size (I asked — you always have to ask) he ended up getting so distracted by a conversation with the other store’s clerk I got irritated and just left. The clothes look fine on these guys, but they’re dimwits — hire real sales staff!
Rag & Bone, Jack Spade and Freeman’s shop are all within a block or to – go directly to the source and those places instead. This place (which frequently does run low on stock) will drive you bonkers.

I have many leather bound books in my apartment.
My apartment smells of rich mahogany.
I shop at Odin.
Odin is the walk in closet for Mister GQ. It stays on top of men’s fashion in all ways, shapes, and forms. From trendy hoodies to pinstriped button ups, to CrispNYC denim**, Odin has you covered with a classic twist, just, unfortunately, not a vodka soda with lemon twist.
If the classics are not you’re thing, Odin has this summer’s trendy yellow boat shoes fresh from the GQ adverts. Hell, even if Odin is out of your price range, its actually got a wide range of current fashion trends, so its nice to visit just to see what’s happening — & whats going to happen — then go shopping for comparable styles at locations a tad easier on the money clip.
For the man trying to make it in America, who stays emulating Ben, stay with the classics. Stay at Odin.
