The owner of Curated HNL said his biggest loss is shoes.

The security cameras at Curated HNL caught two men as they smashed into the consignment store in Aiea just after 3:45 a.m. on Tuesday.

“And they grabbed those big picks, so it was for the pucks used for trenching, digging the holes, digging a trench,” Curated HNL owner Brandon Yagin said, “they used that, he knocked it down, the other guy, the smaller guy pushed the glass over and then they proceeded to go into the store, one guy went straight to the shoe and the other guy went straight to the clothing, so they knew what they was getting!”

The stolen shoes might not end up being as valuable as the thieves thought.

“They only grabbed the display pairs, left side. So I have a bunch of shoes, the right side that I will probably let other consignors know and they might have to pick it up,” Yagin said.
