Trip To SoHo!

What's popping with the populaton yall? Your boy Reed on the check-in once again... Its been a hectic week for me, so I finally get to do an update when I really should be studying for my Micro-Economics exam. My last week has consisted of studying, studying, or maybe the lack there of studying... I've had 3 exams so far (1 on Wednesday, 2 on Thursday...) and I got one more tomorrow, along with a paper that I just finished typing. Thats college for ya...

Anyway, yestereday I decided to take a break and hit up SoHo (the shopping district of NYC) with my boy Gianni McFly. Although the whether in the tri-state area has been pretty shitty the last couple of days (real cold... I'm talkin 45 degrees status) I decided that yesterday would be a good day to enjoy NY life.

Me and McFly hit up all different locations in SoHo/L.E.S. area... we started the day off to "The Reed Space". Now, not only did I love this store because of its name (Reed Space? how awesome is that), but because it was just an awesome fuckin store. I've had many trips to SoHo, but never wound up going over to The Reed Space. The layout of the botique was beautiful (one of the best I've personally seen)... and they carry brands from Nike, Swagger, The Hundreds, Nike SB, 10 Deep, Crooks & Castles, Mighty Healthy, Clae, and etc. You can check them out here: http://thereedspace.com/

Next stop was ALife... one of my particular favorite brands. Now if you never been to Alife, you need to know that its 1 store broken into 2. The first one is Alife the store that carries Alife personal goodies such as their shirts, sweaters, sneakers, and hats... then you have the Alife Rivington Club, which sells a lot of the most recent sneakers and the high end vintage kicks you won't see everyday. Real dope shop, worth checking out.

From there we started heading up where most of all the shops are located. We stopped by Supreme and Clientele (located of Lafayette)... then to Uniqlo department store (one of my new favorite stores... awesome place!). Then from there we went to A Busy Workshop (the REAL bathing ape store). Then to Stussy and Adidas Garage Store (dope music always playing like usual...can't go wrong with Adidas). We also made a quick stop into Kid Robot, checked out the newest toys and gear they have in there.

McFly and I started heading back to the car, but we spotted this real small store that referred us to a real dope spot called "World Store". On Chrystie Street lays a hidden little store that is rarely ever mentioned, but is real dope. Different kind of look to it, and the owner is real cool.

But what trip to SoHo is complete without stopping by the mecca of sneakers: Flight Club?
Now if you didn't know, Flight Club is renovating their old place... so they are currently at a new spot on Nassau St. (out of the SoHo area), after much mapquesting and being stuck in traffic, me and McFly made it to the store just in time b4 closing (we got there 6:50, and they closed at 7...). We stayed in there a lil longer after closing cause G McFly was trying on different kicks and deciding which he wanted to buy. Anyway thats enough talking for today... out of my many trips to SoHo, this was probably my favorite trip. Check out the flicks below and also check out the throwback of the day: Peace and love yall...
