| - Noticing that they have a Yelp check in offer here now = cool. When I first got into Krav, I mentioned to a friend/UFC pro that I needed gear (gloves, knee pads, mouth guard, lady cup etc) he told me to "see the OTM crew" and I'm glad that I did.
When you're in a male dominated sport, some places treat you in a patronizing manner, OTM is the antithesis of that. The guys were super knowledgable, chill (they had a rescue puppy, Kenzo, on a skateboard during one visit) and eager to make sure you get what you need. Case in point: both my Krav studio & the OTM crew said I needed a cup..."know it all" yours truly thought of dozens of sports I've been in, never requiring a cup & declined. Fast forward to my first Krav "Handshake" = groin kick (the HORROR!) and I was back in a jif for that cup.
Never feeling silly for my own stupidity or pressured into sales, vibe and great tips from staff/variety of inventory brings me back. I love the pink OTM sticker they gave me, which combined with my KMLV on my car window elicits questions from car wash guys (ie "do you really fight?" etc) Yes, yes, I do, and OTM is my gear shop of choice.
