da'mage, g-star, prps, tenth division, levis red --opinions?

[niche]

Hi, I am opening a store in the next couple of months and I would like your opinion on these denim lines. PRPS, I believe will be too pricey for my store. What's the avg. price. I have read $200 and I have read $300. Does Levi's even make the red line any more? I want to carry two or three lines, but I don't just want them to be super underground, I want them to fit well and sell well!

Thanks,

Bobby

Thanks guys,

Yeah, I don't really want to go past $150-$180 retail. I'm going to be more of a sneaker boutique, but I did want to have a nice denim line in there. I am going to be in Charlotte, NC. What is the 56ep you mentioned? Is there a site? I personally like the fit of g-star, but I know from talking to different retailers, it doesn't always sell that well.

i think he meant 5EP.

Between 200 and 300 dollar is average, and be sure to get the better nudie denims, like the straight sven and rr vegie indigo, those usually sell very good. And to bad if Prps is to expensive cause those are really brilliant.

what kinda sneakers are you goin to sell?

[niche]

I am going to carry Vans, Creative Recreation, Adidas Originals and Gravis to start. I have talked to Madfoot and they are just now starting distribution, so maybe Madfoot and also Nike in the future. I have also talked to Stussy, Paul Frank, 10 Deep and Commonwealth Stacks for clothing. That's why I would like to have maybe two denim lines.

I do have the location. I am just now signing the final lease agreement this week. We are not planning on being opened until August. If you want to give me your email address I can let you know when we get the site and store open. Thanks for your interest misteraven!
