Exit Real World

Nearly 15 years ago, EXIT first opened its doors in Salem by Oregon local, Missy Samiee.  After a bit of experience, and a ton of support from partner/husband Jake Hauswirth, together they soon expanded EXIT into Portland.  To our delight, EXIT Bridgeport just opened last year and we encourage you to ENTER for all the new back-to-school threads and kicks in classic fall colors.
