Good Swimwear, Nasty customer service

by emmettfrost

Bad Boys has a good selection of swimwear and underwear, and they do have a lot of items, but the unprofessional customer service turned me off to this store. The salespeople are generally nice, but I noticed that the older generation of sellers will do anything to get their commission and can be very pushy.

When I called to inquire about a size exchange of a $20 belt, the manager on the phone was rude, did not care about satisfying the customer, and actually hung up the phone mid-sentence! Not how I would treat a customer who spent over $250 during their last visit! Bad Boys? More like Bad Attitudes.

• Pros: Good swimwear, underwear
• Cons: Customer Service, Overbearing salespeople

You're treated like a queen at this men's fashion boutique serving Boys Town for 20 years.

by Contributor

The Scene
The emphasis at this boutique is on customer service. The meet-and-greet staffers are a shopper's dream come true, pampering and catering to their clientele of loyal neighborhood regulars and curious tourists. You'll never have to look for size or color--just stand by, relax and be served.

The Goods
While most of the contemporary men's fashion stores in Boys Town focus on clubwear, Bad Boys carries a wide selection of active wear and dress wear as well. It steers clear of trendy labels, and instead focuses on up-and-coming designers including E-Male, Ben Ryan, J.Barnett, Ulloa by Tavos, Nukwear, Vuthy, and 4-YOU--lines that offer unique colors, fabrics, styles and body-conscious clothing for reasonable prices. A complete outfit at Bad Boys--including belt, pants, shirt and undershirt--could be had for under $100.

Best selection of lastest fahions

by ta7875

What a great experience. The store is very clean, and very organized for so many cool things to look at. Great atmosphere and groovy music. I can't say enough about the help. They are alway friendly and accomadating and always avaiable to help. If you need help with sizes, color assortment or putting together that perfect outfit, they have it all. I have shopped many of the boutique in the area and many times find the same designer item much cheaper at Bad Boys. If you want attitude and rip offs go to Universal Gear.

• Pros: Selection, price, atmosphere
• Cons: overflowing with merchandise

not quite what it seems

by gr8guy41nca

I have been to Bad Boys, and it looks ok until you need help finding something or have a fashion question. No one there seems to know anything, which should have been evident by the way they dress and act.

Universal Gear is much more to my taste.

• Pros: lots of stuff, good watch selection, underwear
• Cons: no fashion sense, outdated clothes, strange staff

Is Bad Boys really that bad?

by bmg1971

From the moment I walked into the overcrowded store, I had two different salespeople ATTACKING me. I understand the need for GOOD customer service, but the behavior demonstrated by these SALESPEOPLE was almost intolerable. But this was only superceeded with an older, heavy-set man interrogating one of them (rather forcefully) if I had been 'helped'. I understand the need for decent customer service, but if you want it... stay away! Or you'll be vulcher food!

• Pros: Selection, Good music, Hours of operation
• Cons: Customer treatment, No parking, Lecherous staff

BAD BOY'S ARE OH SO GOOD

by uptownkindofguy

ive been shopping the lakeview district for over 20 years now, and i have yet to find a retail clothing store that even comes close to meeting what bad boys has. my most recent purchase ( a Philipe Stark watch from fossil, and a ben ryan ribbed tank top) were to good a deal to let go by. i saw the same watch at bloomie's for $250, and it was only $135 at B.B's. they have so many things to choose from! i was also impressed with they large wall of C.D's . the compilations are like being at a hot tropical night club with the best D.J!!!!. i have been a loyal regular customer for a long time now, and i bring friends and family there often when they visit.

• Pros: friendly, helpful, wide variety
• Cons: not enough locations, wish they had a mag, cant think of any
