Chillest Place in the LES

[captainhumongous]

I was walking around the clinton street area and stepped into SugarheadQuarters the other day. I had walked by there a few times but never bothered to go inside before. I had no idea they had so much cool shit. They actually carry addict there which I thought you could only get in the UK, along with some sick shit from 10 deep they also had toys and skateboard decks as well. If you've never been round there before you really should check it out. I spent the good part of my paycheck there and if I hadn't had my girlfriend with me I would have walked out with the illest rabbit skin coat I've ever seen even though its fucking June (the interior was rabbit skin so nobody needs to know). It's on Rivington just off clinton street and if you're sick of walking into alife, nom de ger and supreme and getting all that attitude check it out because they actually want your business and arent just working there to look cool

Yeah, what's that all about? The place is good enough to get props on its own from people here (which it does) so why keep going on about it? (and why make like you keep 'stumbling' across this great new place?)

I genuinely hope you're not involved with the store in any way, because this smells like the lamest fucking excuse for promotional guerrilla marketing bullshit yet and I'd like to think that the people behind SHQ are a little smarter than that. Do what you do well and word will get around.

ID HAVE TO DISAGREE

THE CHILLEST PLACE IN THE LES IS "AS" ON 11 STANTON STREET BETWEEN CHRISTY AND BOWERY, THEIR ALSO OPEN LATE AND HAVE A FRIENDLY STAFF.

PLUS THE STORE ALWAYS REAKS OF CHRONIC, A NICE TOUCH.

MAKE SURE YOU PICK UP THE SIGNATURE TEE SHIRT FROM "AS", THE ROSEARRY BEAD GRAPHIC PRINT ON A HIGH QUALITY JAPANESSE COTTON TEE SHIRT. ITS REAL HOT ON THE STREETS RIGHT NOW.

LAST TIME I WAS THERE THEY HAD SOME ILL TEE'S FROM NEW LABELS SUCH AS EMPIRE STATE, REASON, AND SPOONFED. YOU GOTTA CHECK OUT THEIR CONSTANT STOCK OF JORDANS AND EXCLUSIVE HOT FIRE PIFF CRACK NIKES AND SHIIIIIIIIIIIIT.

Addict is hideous.

[gboogie]

aotearoa - are you gay? addict is the the shit - obvious you don't give cred to the brilliant artists they've worked with. Will Barraas, Mr.Jago, kid acne. and hey - you've got to appreciate the fact that they cut and sew all their shit - non of that american apparel crap or anything like it. they're about quality. back when i lived in london - addict was one of the first to really get it and get right mate. it's all about quality and design. obviously you don't get it.

Quote: aotearoa - are you gay?

Obviously you are one narrow minded human being. Just because I think Addict clothing is hideous regardless of what people they have worked with is simply my opinion. I wasn't aware that they cut & sew all their clothing, thats fantastic but I digress, I still don't like their clothing. Opinions are subjective. I'm sure there are labels which some people may like and you may detest. For me, Addict is one that I simply detest.

Perhaps YOU don't get it. Ever consider that?

[gboogie]

hey now - no prob with you hatin on addict. that is your opinion. you just gotta explain yourself rather than be so elementary and say it's "hideous". you're right, there's a load of labbels/brands out there that i don't care much for but i don't come out and say i just don't like it - there's always a reason.

glad you give them props that they do all cut and sew. hey - check it again and let me know what you think. the quality is pretty top notch - you might not like the graphics or artists but "detest" is so harsh. sounds like you had a bad experience with it.

by the way - i get what i get - I just want to hear why the hatin on it.

anyway - if you're in nyc go out and enjoy the day mate - too nice to be keepin on this.

cheers dude - i respect your opinion and everyone else's too.
