The best shopping experience EVER. Hands down. What in god's name took me so long to get to this place? I walked by several times, but never popped in. But I was implored to give it a shot while traipsing through the Meatpacking district yesterday post brunch at the now defunct Florent. These guys take a lot of pride in what they do. Everything is so specially picked for the store, that although there is a certain randomness to the wares, it all makes sense as to why every item there is for sale. For example, yes there are tons of jeans and shorts (oh how I want a pair of their high waisted shorts) but there are also shaving brushes, hard to come by Carthesia fragrances, moleskin notebooks that have been distressed to a crazy degree (totally Earnest Sewn Style), books, mini vegan cupcakes and cappucinos (to name a few highlights). Filson luggage is a popular commodity as they have applied their signature distressing techniques to the waxwear and the result is a perfect patina on a bag.
I have no critiques- staff was amazingly sweet, friendly, funny, not pushy at all...
I should stop because you'll lack my sincerity for sure.
Yeah, their jeans aren't THAT cute.
