A quick walk-by at lunch says that ALIFE is not yet live and stock boxes are still strewn about. Either that or the twiztedsizta is sleeping in well past noon.

Sleeping until noon! I wish.

Anyway...I just dropped in to say...OPEN!

So...I have a very special message from the alife crew as to why they chose Vancouver...this is a direct quote here...so you can quote me on it this time...

We love East Hastings Street.

...and there you have it.

The store is directly related to the NY team. The guys were out here the other week fine tuning the floor plan.

I'm not going to speak for them and say why they opted for Vancouver.

Some reasons I feel it is a good fit are:

Pacific Rim business.

Huge skateboard scene.

Distribution centre for RTFT is based here.

Developing city due to upcoming 2010 Olympics.

Big film/tv/commercial industry.

Vancouver style is casual and streetwear is the norm.

Again, these are only my opinions as to why Vancouver is a good fit. The guys incharge may have some other reasons.

I haven't had a chance to see all the inventory yet...I should be going through the boxes and boxes of goods in the next week or so. So no specifics right now...I know that's a bit of a tease...but I don't want to ruin the surprise. I don't see why we wouldn't have Krink...I'm going to say a tentative "yes" to that.

Hi everyone,

I will be managing the Alife store in Vancouver. I just registered to let you know that things are going well...delayed due to some tweaks to the floorplan...but we should be open shortly.

If you have any specific questions you can email me at [email protected] is my temp address until I set up an Alife account. If I am unable to answer your questions I can most certainly direct them to the right person.

Thanks for the interest.
