This review is based purely on my experience purchasing a pair of shoes online and picking them up at the Nike location on Michigan avenue.
Let's face it, shopping is tricky these days for everyone. But, if you're a parent with teenagers who need clothes, it's even harder. My son was in need of another pair of sneakers. He had been obsessing over this pair of Nike shoes, and there were literally only two pairs remaining in the Chicagoland area. Of course he wanted them right away, and because he's been working so hard in school, we decided to reward him and pick them up the very same day...an hour after we ordered them! Yes, we drove into the city.
When we arrived at the Nike store, we walked in and were greeted right away. They had someone at the front who asked if we were shopping or there for a pick up. When we said pick up, they looked at the order number on my phone. The associate was very polite and said he'd be right back and was literally back in 5 minutes with our shoes.
A few observations while we waited...
The store was very empty. They limit the patrons in the store, and the dressing rooms were closed due to Covid. The associates were wearing masks (as were we), and there were plastic shields and hand sanitizer everywhere. We were so lucky to be helped by two guys who really enjoyed and appreciated having a job. Of course my hubby told one of them that he looked like a model (very handsome).
Easy in and out. Would have upped to 5 stars if they figured out a way to do curbside, but I guess that might be a little tricky on Michigan avenue ;-)
Oh, and my son was over the moon happy. Let's hope he keeps up his grades with many more reward to come!
