The Tipping Point really is a destination. The sneakers are what they sell, but you walk away with an experience unlike most retailers. They teach you about the history of the product and the inspirations for all the designs. I am going to go back again just to find out more about sneakers.

GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE

People like sneakers for obvious reasons. Price, Service, Location, and Style. The Tipping Point is all four. This very nice looking boutique filled with artwork sets this place apart from other sneaker boutiques. Not to mention the flooring and ambience. All of their designs are rare and distinctive, definitely hard to find and unavailable at local stores.
Vans, Nikes, Adidas, Reebok, and a bunch of other vintage sneakers. JUST TO MENTION A FEW!!

Pros

+ Ambience, Customer Service, Price, Location, Style!!!

I prefer to shop for my sneakers at boutiques vs. malls so I was happy when The Tipping Point opened up. The store feels like an art gallery and is stocked with unique and collectible sneakers you won't find everywhere else. If you consider yourself a sneaker connoisseur or you just like to wear unique things, you gotta check it out! My faves are the Asics Onitsuka Tigers. The owners are really nice, too!

Pros

+ Great selection, nice store, friendly customer service.

Besides a selection of clothing, books and music, various fashion, art and lifestyle events are held in partnership with local non-profit organizations throughout the year.
