In my constant obsession with shoes (i should be on MTV for True Life: Im a Shoe Addict) I set out last week to rue Tiquetonne to peep the WeSC Concept store and found some nice little surprises along the way. Turns out, on this lil rue pieton (an entirely pedestrian street) there are a myriad of quaint urban stores and shops, most of which i had never heard of. There was even a great Coq Sportif store. Real nice. Plus there were no cars so it made for a solid shopping atmosphere. It was interesting because, for the most part, i associate (and probably rightfully so) urban wear with America, skating and the like, and to see these real good shops on such a uniquely French street was crazy. It was narrow, cobble stones, the kind of things that is cute but entirely too impractical to have in a younger country like America. Not to mention that it was hard enough to walk on the cobble stones, let alone to skate board. that would have been impossible. The contrast btw the environment and the retail was insightful and a real good sign for urban culture. If we can penetrate places like this, we must be everywhere. I also hit this store Shinzo, nice collection of shoes under the floors and decent on the shelves but the staff was acting bunky… gave me a bad vibe. There was also the only Nike 6.0 retailer i had ever seen next door, they had some real nice dunkers under the floor too. A day of shoes and clothes followed by an irish coffee… yea.. im winning
Great concept.. the rotisserie shoe… loving it (even more then MickeyDiesel)
