Macy’s Backstage

Conveniently located in the heart of sheepshead bay with tons of parking, you cannot go wrong with this new store.
There has never been a time that I have walked out of this store empty handed.
I love the large amount of designer items you can find here at great prices, it beats TJ Maxx any day. They have a wide selection of shoes like guess and Vince camuto, along with designer makeup items and tools like nyx or elf. Their spa and hair products are wonderful, from bliss to CHI. Their watches selection is decent too, where you can find Betsey Johnson products. I am also a huge fan of their jewelry, from sterling silver to real gold, along with big name brands like Steve madden or French connection. The fragrance selection is decent too, especially the rollerballs for travel or gift sets for brands like pink sugar.
The clothes are well organized and run in all sizes, from athletic wear to intimate wear, pj’s, jeans and leggings, even work clothes and fancy dresses or outwear. Also a nice selection of designer items for men and kids, I have never seen any damaged clothing. The best part of this store is the home products, from handmade soaps to décor which is swanky and modern from fur throws to pillows. This store even has fancy dish sets, knife sets, pot sets, cooking accessories, baking pans, and cocktail mixer sets too [did I also mention amazing soy candles from Isaac Mizrahi?!]. I also love their great deals on bath rugs, shower curtains, sheets and towels.
For the winter you can find a large selection of designer hat and glove sets, cashmere scarves, ear muffs with rabbit fur.
They also have a separate fur section and high end sunglasses with staff there at all times to help you with your needs, they are super friendly. The cashier was also very friendly and quick, the lines moved pretty fast.
They do they macys credit cards here, but they do not take coupons/​wallet deals since this is an outlet store.
If you get hungry, you can go next-​door to their brand new café serving starbucks & sandwiches .
Cant wait to shop till I drop here again!

Like others have mentioned this is a new type of Macy’s and seems to be more focused at the TJ Maxx or Marshall’s shoppers.
I really liked the convenience of a smaller store instead of going to a mall. Also liked that the store was cleaner, brighter and more fun than a TJ Maxx or Marshall’s…gave the store a more «young» feel.
Pricing was good although no coupons like at big Macy’s. In Men’s they had everything I would want from socks and underwear to suits. Found a Polo button up shirt for $ 39.99 that would have been $ 98.50 at big Macy’s so I was happy.
No problems checking out and all store members were smiling and helpful. As others have mentioned parking is probably the worst part of the store.
Overall I liked it and will be back.

We visited here the other day as we had previously saw it while driving on the Belt Parkway. For a Macy’s, this place is relatively small but it is probably due to the Backstage concept. The selection of items reminds me of a smaller version of TJ Maxx /​Homegoods. The prices were not inexpensive but they do have luxury brands such as Prada there.

Macy’s Backstage is the new off price concept from Macy’s. This one opened Wednesday, ⁹⁄₂ as one of the first 3 locations.
The setup is very similar to other off price offerings (think TJ Maxx, Nordstrom Rack). There’s a lottle bit of everything — beauty, mens, intimate, travel — though the assortment definitely skews to women’s clothing and accessories, and home.
I found the home assortment to be particularly compelling, and it was merchandised to really showcase lifestyles.

Just opened this week. A lot of clothes for women and men, makeup, costume jewelry, limited housewares. To get in the store you have to walk up two flight of narrow stairs, some elderly patrons were having difficulty. Not sure if it is handicapped accessible, no marking of an alternate entrance. This is where the old Loehmans used to be in Sheepshead Bay. I had a Macy’s gift card to use, found a frying pan and spoon. Checkout line slow and only 4 clerks for a Saturday afternoon. Some people had bags of stuff, others had nothing. Prices not drastically discounted, you can do better when Macy’s has things on sale and you use a coupon. Wouldn’t go out of my way to go here. Parking is difficult.
