I saw the previous FIVE STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. And I over, extra, super, duper agree. Andy, the proprietor, genius and engine behind this place called Youngstown Kicks. Just him as a human being and personality alone. Is worth the trip. "Andy if you're reading this. God Bless You!" This is a one of a kind human being who literally touches your soul with his genuineness and love for shoes and people. I've seen exclusive one of a kind sneakers that I know were in his shop. On a downtrodden guy who asks for change in the area around his shop. And I know Andy, he just gave those away for free from his heart to that guy. In closing. The place is somewhere to take your kids, your guy or your girl. No matter what size you wear. I promise you a high quality, name brand, authentic pair of sneakers. Many are one of a kind, previous classics or exclusives. There's a mix and match of vintage clothing, from jeans jackets to varsity jackets, shorts jerseys...I can't name it all. But the cherry on top is he also restores sneakers and shoes. I cannot believe how close to pristine this guy can make your gently used and slightly roughed up sneakers. I'd take those old Jordans that you think aren't good enough to style anymore to Andy asap. I can't say enough about the whole experience just going to hang out and check for a deal on some sneakers. You just have to see for yourself....
Read moreI have shopped at this place and another vintage place. Andy is a hell of a cool guy and super chill. I met him through an event in April where he negotiated with me for the price of a hat (when I didn’t have enough money for the hat and shirt). The price themselves are not that bad, especially if you compare prices onto like eBay or Depop. The graphic t-shirts, sweaters, and other clothes mainly run for like $20-$40 (maybe more if it is more unique or something), however it is quite reasonable. Plus, Andy is willing to negotiate whenever possible.
He also sells some cool sneakers as well, which is a bonus if you are a sneaker head and a person that likes sneakers. He can also repair sneakers as well, though I mainly bought his clothes. Overall, I highly recommend his store. It’s also super cool as he remembered me from the event in April last year (which says a lot about his character and personality).
11/10 - If you want something cool, check Andy and...
