StandDown Warehouse

We have the only Veteran-only clothing warehouse in the 5-state area. When you come to St. Cloud StandDown, we’ll give you a duffel bag with the basics in it. But, you can also look through racks and racks of clothing for any specifics you need. We carry men’s and women’s clothing, shoes, boots, and many accessories.


We have an amazing source of New Balance shoes, as well as military surplus boots in GSA sizes 4-16, along with quality work boots.
