Oak Common Has Cool, Uncommon Goods

Oak Common on Grand Ave in Oakland CAWhen shopping for clothing, Oak Common is a shop that should be on your list. But to classify it as a clothing boutique does not really do it justice. Because it has an inspiring mix of a bit of beautiful everythings. First and foremost, it’s anchored in a great selection of both women’s and men’s apparel. But they also have some jewelry, accessories, home decor, apothecary, coffee table books, and what we call Oakland love products. These are goods either made here in Oakland and/or celebrate the Oaktown vibe.

Oak Common on Grand Ave in Oakland CAThe day that we stopped by to visit, it was buzzing with customers. So we didn’t get our chance to chat with staff to learn more about them. We hope our photos can do the heavy lifting. But what we can tell you is that they pay attention to details, quality, and local. We, like everyone else, just enjoyed the process of browsing the boutique. It’s an experience that surprises and delights. Indeed, we weren’t there to shop. But, we’re not quite sure how we left without buying something. It was a challenge to keep our wallets packed away on this occasion.

In summary, it’s a boutique with an eclectic selection. You’ll find it easy to find something for yourself or a gift for someone special.
