Ven. Space

They have some cool brands. Inventory is slim. The staff is rude, unhelpful, and indifferent—though I have seen them carefully attend to those they perceive as big spenders (the owner is nice, others not at all). The slim value they add is the ability to try things on and see the fabrics in person. Worth a look, but fails at execution and customer service. After my most recent experience, I'm just going to buy online and directly from the brands they carry that I like (e.g, mfpen, Our Legacy, Auralee). My advice to the business is to either hire better people or train the people you have, because the products you're curating are solid. Moreover, as channel distribution opens up for some of your key brands (e.g., Our Legacy NYC store), you will lose your value if you don't make improvements. If the only competitive advantage you have is that you're the only one carrying trendy brands, you'll be out of business in 5 years or fewer when the rest of the market catches up.

Incredible shop - great service and items have price tags - some of these other reviews are nonsense - super lovely spot & Daniel was amazing!

Great selection of menswear brands not many stores have. Staff were super friendly and helpful with suggestions. Appreciate Axel and the staff helping me get the shirt I was looking for. Highly recommend this store for unique quality menswear clothing and accessories

They have a beautiful collection but the service was really poor. I did feel like I was treated differentially from the other clientele in the store as a poc which is extremely disappointing given how they sell clothes from so many asian designers. I bought a few things here, but I will never go back.

I must admit that the product selection here is excellent, especially the Japanese items. However, the service was extremely disappointing. The manager seemed to only attend to white customers, while Asian customers were treated very differently. One staff member even spoke to me while yawning, which I have never seen in any store. For a shop that takes pride in its Japanese selections, I truly don’t understand why such discriminatory service is tolerated. At this point, it would be better to just buy directly in Japan.

Solid curation in-store, staff were kind and helpful making the experience enjoyable. Casey was great! 😊

Great selection of high quality menswear. And very helpful sales staff!

Shopping at Ven Space is such a treat. The curation of brands is spot on, everything you could want for building a sophisticated, modern wardrobe. I’m genuinely so thankful a store like this exists on this side of Brooklyn. The staff is warm and helpful, and while the shop definitely has buzz right now, it feels like the kind of place that’s going to have real staying power in the neighborhood. My only wish is that they listed prices more clearly, but honestly the helpfulness of the staff and the selection make up for it. The type of clothing you can find here, from elevated staples to fashion forward silhouettes and under the radar labels, was almost impossible to find in Brooklyn until now.
