I bought their bifold wallet about 5 years ago and Ive carried it basically every day since then. Its gone through a lot in the meantime and there is not a stitch out of place. Any other wallet would have worn through by now but this one might last until my spectacular and untimely demise.
Great team and a great experience. Would highly recommended.
Pretty much the best shopping experience Ive had in years. The staff are all really cool and since it wasnt busy we had conversations. Theyve certainly found what they do well and do a good job of it.
Shopped here for years. These guys are great people and have the best stuff in town. I love that they pay attention to how the items they carry in their store are made ethically and sustainably. Thanks FSC!
Coolest men’s store in town. My husband purchased a beautiful leather jacket from here that he will have for life. This place is all about quality and I love the overall vibe.
As a fashion nerd this boutique is a home away from home. Eric and Adam are so welcoming it feels like a social club. These guys will direct you to exactly what you ask for and if its not in house they will: laugh at the misfortune, happily recommend to local options and will advise you on fantastic alternatives.
Stopped in while visiting Des Moines for work, and Im so glad I did. A really well curated store, catering to a variety of styles. My interaction was the owners was top-notch, they treated everyone walking into the store like an old friend. It also smelled super good in there.Looking forward to stopping in again next time I pass through town.
Fontenelle has some of the best products for dudes this side of the Mississippi. Walk in and be blown away by their personalized customer service. You will pay a pretty penny but the quality and service don’t come free my friends! Stop in and don’t be a Sally! This place rocks!
Way over priced !
Quality handmade leather items. Love atmosphere and the employees are fantastic. We love coming to their events. We have ordered and purchased special order pieces.
I hate to give this place a bad review but I just have to be honest. They have great prices and their shirts are very comfortable BUT they shrink! None of my clothes ever shrink in my washer or dryer but the 2 shirts I bought shrunk so small in the first wash that I can’t even wear them. They literally shrunk 1/2 the size. Because of this I’ll never buy another shirt here. It’s too bad because I thought they had cool designs. But at you’re own risk!
Stopped by earlier today (07/08/2019) while some family/friends were checking out a museum from around the corner and just fell in love with the vibe and all the stuff that was for sale here. Yeah some of it is a little pricey but you DEFINITELY get what you pay for. On top of everything the customer service was excellent. Definitely seemed like a store that I would see back home in the Bay Area around San Francisco or San Jose. Will for sure stop by next time im in town to pick some stuff up, probably gonna order a few shirts pretty soon, i also turned some of my friends on to their shorts so you guys might have some long distance customers :)
Seriously. Erich, Adam and the crew are ah.may.zing. Beautifully curated shop with exceptional quality and service. Great gifts, outstanding leather work, and top brands. Would expect this store in a much larger city - we are oh so fortunate they chose Des Moines East Village. Love.
Had them custom make me a wallet and it came out perfect. Extremely talented and super easy to deal with as I basically sent them a picture of the type of wallet I wanted and they had it done the next day.
Stop in for some of the best menswear and graphic tees in town. Or stop in just to hang out, thats what I do a lot.
I came in today with my boyfriend and was TOTALLY blown away. I was so impressed by the setup in shop, everything is very reasonably priced considering the quality of the brands.
Awesome store! One of a kind and mens clothing found no where else. Great customer service.. 5 stars for sure
The taxidermied animals are fun to look at. An eclectic shop with a little something for everyone even if you arent a wood chopping man.
Guys, when your wife drags you dowtown to the East Village to go shopping, this is your refuge. Cool store with handmade leather items, clothes, waxed canvas bags, and manly smells. Check it out.
Super cool shop thats excellently curated and staffed by cool friendly guys. Please do visit and treat yourself to some of their super high quality goods while upping your cool points.
One of my favorite shops in Des Moines. Really hard to not spend a fortune every time I visit. Great clothes and custom leather work.
Great people and amazing customer service. Im having them make me a custom holster for a cosplay gun to match the steam punk outfit as well as a holster similar to the one from hitman. They make sure to get a good understanding of exactly what i want and how i want it to look. Took appropriate measurements and provided me with a good timeline. Looks like items he ate not cheap, but extremely high quality. Youll get more than your moneys worth. And again, the staff continue to go above and beyond.
These folks are legit! Best clothing store in DSM for real. You have GOT to stop in and check it out. Nothing like it.
Its hard to believe we have a place like this in Des Moines. Very nicely curated selection of workwear. Great staff. Filson coats, Unbranded denim, and a great selection of boots.
Pretty dope workwear / americana store in dsm.
What a great store! My husband loves this place!!!
They didnt have the leather item I wanted in stock, so the made it while I waited. Wonderful service.
Awesome store, lots of great leather and wood gear made in house. And a wide assortment of other gear for the outdoorsmen and the hipsters
Awesome store. Selvedge denim, heavy flannel, leather work.
As good as it gets
