Ven. Space

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.

Such an amazing selection but I can't tolerate a store that leaves prices off of the tags. Even most high-end boutiques & flagships include prices on the tags. Feels like some dated attempt at exclusivity. Big shame tbh because the shop is lovely. Don't play games with your customers.

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.

An amazing collection featuring rare brands not often seen in New York. The clothing is meticulously curated, showcasing the buyer’s excellent taste and eye for detail

Where do I even begin to describe my experience at Ven Space. It felt like I was shopping my coolest friends closet. From the moment my friend and I walked in the door, I felt at home. Axel and Chris, the owner, took amazing care of us. They didn't judge my friend and I, they used our first names when they spoke to us and they gave us good recommendations based on what we actually could wear/needed versus what the store made the most profit on. The merchandising and store design is A1 and I look forward to coming back.

Beautiful space with some truly nice and passionate people behind it. They are unpretentious and carry a large gamut of brands across different price points, with the common through line being that it’s all good product. Their in-house brand is an especially noteworthy anchor, as it is both affordable and well made. The store has already emerged as one of the best stores in NY, with its great brand list and amazing staff (I spent most of the time speaking to Casey and Chris, but they were all very helpful and knowledgeable). They have a very bright future ahead of them!

Great addition to the NYC retail scene. Amazing brand list, very cool space, and super friendly and knowledgeable staff. I swung through and Axel was an incredible help in showing me stuff I was interested in, helping me figure out how to wear certain things, and just genuinely seemed super enthusiastic about the product in the store. Picked up some stuff from Graphpaper and Dana Lee Brown, two new brands to my closet. Can't wait to go back!

Great brands, but the markup on Japanese items is 2x -3x it’s intended price. The markup on Auralee, A Presse, and others are borderline criminal. Try the garment in the store and order from Japan if you like the fit.
