1. Recon/Nort - Could have passed this up, I wasn't that excited for Recon. Decent amount of sneakers.
2. Clientele - Very small, even smaller than the rest of these boutiques. Plain and kind of boring. Employees were nice and willing to make small talk with the customers.
3. Supreme - If you are not really into their stuff, than don't bother. Although, I had the impression their clothing was rediculously expensive, and was surprised to see their tees going for 30+/
4. DQM - The shop has a neat layout, and ended up being one of my favorites. It had a very home-like atmosphere with a very good variety of sneakers. Their DQM tees are pretty nice and they also carry Huf as well. For most of these shops in NY I had to get buzzed in, where at DQM, their door was always wide open.
5. Flight Club - A definite stop on your trip, every shoe imaginable, and if you do not have the money to afford a pair, just looking around proved to be fun.
6. Stussy - If you are a fan of Stussy clothing, this is a must. They had alot to choose from in all sizes, it was relatively big, and the employees were very helpful.
7. Memes - Ehh.
8. Union - I did not have a chance to see Union.
9. Reed Space - This was probably my favorite store on my trip. They had some of everything from 10 Deep, Rocksmith, C&C, Staple Design, and many more. Employees were very nice, and their book section is neat to browse around in. Overall great shop.
