I always wondered what the surplus stores were all about.

The Paris one blows. Don't expect this one to be much better, especially at the rate the goods are sold during the sales.

Should be very intresting.

one in tokyo sucks too. i wouldn't expect too much

At least it'll probably be a source of more jeans so local stores might not run out every 2 days. So is it going to be like nordstroms rack/saks off 5th? What stuff actually makes it there anyway? Just a bunch of XL stuff or just ugly stuff?

[poly800rock]

they also brand their own shit "APC SURPLUS" which is super suck

[chronoaug]

hahaha. Are you serious? Wait, on the tag or is it actually visible when you wear it? That'd be hilarious.

[dakkaisbabel]

wonder when it's gonna happen?

Hipsters rejoice!

"53 days and counting...until A.P.C. opens in Williamsburg. Jan. 11 is now the official launch date for hipsterdom's equivalent of a total eclipse. Dubbed A.P.C. Surplus, the long-delayed shop will carry customized vintage military pieces, discounted items from past seasons, and, of course, the line's signature denim products—in other words, everything you'll need to blend in with the neighborhood."

Someone posted on the Brooklyn Message board that this shop is supposedly going to be on Grand St. should be interesting.

Denim will be the same price though, no?
