Strung used to be in Smash in Georgetown, but now that they're moving, it's gone. Are you the guy who ran that, Kicks?
The Adidas store in Georgetown gets good stuff - I still haven't checked to see if they've gotten Adicolor stuff though - I can't imagine why they wouldn't.
GT Players in Georgetown has the AF1 & Jordan hookup.

thanks but i am only here for the summer and i am not really into adidas and af1.
i will check out georgetown for some jordans although i am not a sneakerhead.

was just in g-town last night.....mad fake bapes....seems like every store has em....but gt players got some tight stuff-like the fours and the air stabs, barneys(co-op) on m st. had some nice stuff to.....and yea addias has all the adicolor gear out
ice grillz
05-24-2006, 02:26 AM
i never see anyone wearing bapes in va, but ha, i can't believe stores in gtown sells fapes.
if you know any specific stores (names) to hit up in dc/gtown, let me know.

i was over at fair oaks and saw this dude with jedis today.
i wouldn't go to potomac mills. it sucks.
there's nike outlet store in leesburg i think and denim bar in arlington is nice, too.

fake bapes and evisu selling down whole wisconsin in gtown.
i am not a bapehead so i don't know if they are legit or not so i asked for the price and he said he'd sell em to me for $129 because he liked me. (not homo kinda way.) i laughed, took a picture, and left.
i live in northern Virginia...some of the places you wanna check up to shop for kicks in Gtown would be CT Players (for reasons that the other posters said) Sports Zone on M Street just got some new kicks and have good stuff, right now they got a sale on fitteds...addidas store is tight, and if u wanna shop they got a lacoste, banana republic...but def go to tysons corner, its got a lotta stores there to go and shop and its huge, they got an AMC on the third floor along with a food court and other stores im always hittin that place up...fair oaks is iight but i go there for elite...springfield mall is small but shit is real ghetto and only has an athletes foot...and if u do go by norfolk stop by commonwealth
and the sneaker game in NOVA is wack, you find only a few people rockin some heat...everybodys rockin white on whites or black on blacks to be "gangsta"

I'll agree that NoVA sucks for the most part (save Elite) but don't sleep on Sports Zone in Springfield Mall they have a few good things in there once in a while. But if you're looking for "limited" type clothes Elite at Fair Oaks Mall in NoVA and Social Study in Frederick MD is about it.

06-17-2006, 09:39 PM
I Concur, NoVA needs to step their kick game up. Anyways yeah Springfield is kind of run down but they have a couple stores with quickstrike accounts and there's this one store down there that sells all these super rare new eras if you're into fitted caps. And sportszone is good, a lot of exclusives. I suggest you just run around Georgetown for a while, it's tourist season so it can get packed, but the best times to go are either on sundays or like the middle of the week. Other then that DC has some assorted sports, some in NE (G-town is in NW) so just grab a metro card and get to it. By the way Quick Pita right off of the Scott Key bridge in georgetown has some of the best food around, and I swear to god lupe fiasco works at the dress shop right across the street. If you see him you'll see what I mean. Hope this helped.

i didn't just move to dc.
i grew up here but moved to texas then i moved back here.
i see a lot of guys rocking bapes but i think they are all fake since they probably bought em from gtown area.
ct players, is that by wisconsin next to 'originals'? there was a shop that sold sbs, air max, jordans, and the prices were good but i don't know about the authenticity since all shops carry fakes.
elite is by far my favorite store. i go there a lot.
ps. i saw spike lee today. i am guessing he was at the nats and yankees game today.

Why would you even think to suggest that Oliver (owner of Gentei) is a racist or would have racist policies? That's the dumbest fucking shit I've heard on here in a while and not cool to spread that shit about one of the few small boutiques that the area even has when you obviously don't even know the guy.

I call bullshit on that.

went shop gentei reopened, i was there the very next day because of the sale they were having to get rid of all the old stuff for new and the shop owner was actually friends with couple black people that were there chilling and he's a nice dude. even gave me discount on a tee because they ran out of the size i wanted.

up against the wall in iverson may have the biggest selection, but the girl that works there is dumb as a brick.
she charged me $105, then refunds me $105, then had her manager come and charge me $210 because apparently they refunded me $105. shits confusing as it sound.
customer service also suck.

12-17-2006, 03:01 AM
^Major opened at 11PM. They had alot of hype going into this opening, and in my opinion didn't meet up to those expectations. They had a couple of nice brands in their lineup like Lemar & Dauley, Foreign Family, Orisue, and Coup de Grace. Shoewise, it sucked. The overall layout of the store was extremely bland. No pictures, no theme, nothing. Just white everywhere, and nothing that distinguishes the shop from others. I was expecting MAJOR to meet the standards of some of the great stores like The Reed Space or Dave's Quality Meats, but quite honestly, they didn't. Too much hype for nothing. Well I'll have to see if Commonwealth gets shit done in DC.
well it was obvious that the store still wasn't 100% ready....but like everything, just give it some time & i'm sure things will improve. i copped 2 rouge status tees & the paris coup de grace. the hot seller seemed to be the major new era. i think a lot of people had extremely high expectations for this opening, but you just have to give it time...i'm sure major will eventually be huge.

12-17-2006, 02:38 PM
When I go to a store to spend MY money on a store's products, I expect an experience. Major had alot of things going for them, good clothing lines that the DC/MD/VA region never had to offer until now, and some decent shoes. Why did I say it was a dissapointment? First, all the shoes there, with an exception to the wovens, can easily be acquired at the Sports Zone or a little help from the internet. ^You say they have alot of nice accounts, they only have one from what I can see which is an urban account.
Second, I waited in line for fuckin 3 hours, and when I went in they weren't really striking conversations with anyone. I figure if you wanted to open a successful business you would atleast try to befriend the first group of guys in line. Third, they didn't even give anything out for free.:( I will go back soon though, and see if my experience does change from last time. There will always be support for Major in my wallet regardless.
well man i'm sorry you didn't like it. i don't really know what to tell you. no one told u to stand in line for 3 hours...maybe that had a slight influence on you being so disappointed. like i said, it wasn't like the best store i'd ever been in, but my expectations weren't sky high either. i was able to cop what i went there for, so i have no complaints.

When I go to a store to spend MY money on a store's products, I expect an experience. Major had alot of things going for them, good clothing lines that the DC/MD/VA region never had to offer until now, and some decent shoes. Why did I say it was a dissapointment? First, all the shoes there, with an exception to the wovens, can easily be acquired at the Sports Zone or a little help from the internet. ^You say they have alot of nice accounts, they only have one from what I can see which is an urban account.
Second, I waited in line for fuckin 3 hours, and when I went in they weren't really striking conversations with anyone. I figure if you wanted to open a successful business you would atleast try to befriend the first group of guys in line. Third, they didn't even give anything out for free.:( I will go back soon though, and see if my experience does change from last time. There will always be support for Major in my wallet regardless.
If you ever venture outside of DC to LA or NYC you'll know that most stores on a typical day (even the super overhyped ones) don't have all that unique of a selection of kicks, they're really only worth hitting up when they drop a special edition, that's really the only time that it makes them better than your average Sports Zone/Shoe City/DTRL etc. I think Major is well enough connected to get that hookup so that's what will set them apart.

over all it was OK but i was expecting them to have more stuff the only thing that i wanted to get was the new eras and the Major Lrg shirt so im happy:) I also heard that hey dint have everything out and that they would keep new shirts and shoes as time goes by. It will defiantly be the best store around so im just glad that i live close so that when they get new stuff i will defiantly be at the store buying everything they have.

^^^ hunter this is sooo true, but for some reason i was expecting a little more because of all the hype going around. i know that they just opened and they'll probably have some hot product in months to come but i was expecting a little more. they showed me and the crew love and thats always a plus.

i had on dia de los muertos and i do think they will be better than Commonwealth because all the staff was chill and Underdog was always cool when i talked to him before the store opened. I was there on saturday at 11:30

Major is a very good store,seeing as how you all didnt see all that they had to offer,and well i got to cop some stuff that wasnt on the shelves,and for the guy who said that there werent any good convos once going into the store,you must of looked mad or something,i know underdog is a good person and would spark a convo up with you in a sec,the major hats look better in person than on the internet for the people who were wondering,once major puts everything out,you all will love it,they opend early for you all,and all you have to say is,ima wait for the next store,i guess that alot of people cant be pleased,but to my good freind underdog you did a good job,and to duk,same to you.

There was definitely a lot of hype but let's be honest, unless a store has topless models to bring out your shoes and help you try them on, they can only be so "different" from other similar places in LA/NYC etc. But given their location (Georgetown) the people on the internet will be a very small percentage of their clientele, people go to Georgetown to shop and Major will get hit up by shoppers like any other place on the block.

Here are some answers to the questions about Major and C'monwealth.
Major:
- They dont even have all their inventory out yet on display. Most is still in storage. Yes the store is still a work in progress. Yall were feenin so they had to give yall a taste.
-They have the only Jordan Lifestyles account in the area. They will NOT carry SB's.
-White Spizzike's are a plenty. $300/pair I'm not gonna give out the drop date b/c there will be a riot up there.
-Sneakerman dude is out b/c how u gonna have a partner that dont have any $$$ to put up to start a biz. Just doenst make sense as a bizness. Put up or roll out.
-Just be patient and lets just be happy we actually got a real sneaker joint in DC. Yall some crying babies I swear. Lets support the movement.
C'monwealth:
-It should be opening on this Thursday or at the latest Friday.
-They have brought up a lot of gear that you cant buy on the website. Most of the 10 Deep and C&C hoodies that were sold out in hours are in boxes here in DC. They put aside almost half of their inventory over the past few months just to bring up here.
-They should have enough C'mon hats too.
-They will also have some fresh kicks.
-They got a gang of legit BBC gear as well.
-I'm really checkin' to see if they got that "Mike" shit. That crackle hoodie is banooodles!!!
Show support for both stores I know I will. Im not affiliated with either store I just know some folks and thats that.

Nope no opening party. They will be throwing a party soon though at a local club\lounge. The spot is TBD. Also check for a collab with the Clipse/C'monwealth throwing a party up here in DC in a few weeks. Should be hot. We are still trying to secure a venue that is sneaker/fresh gear friendly.

With all due respect, I can understand that you're generating some hype for your boys but why not wait until the store opens to sound the alarm (or at least right before the opening)? I'm not sure all of the early hype for Major really helped them, if anything it may have set the expectation bar too high with some people. If Kickballers is going to be in Georgetown they'll get PLENTY of foot traffic of shoppers that probably won't have a clue about these online forums. And if the shop is happening, heads who ARE on these forums and go in there will also be spreading the good word.

I stopped by at Major today. Store is nice but agreed on the posts above, its clear that they are "open during construction". Nikes were not as impressive as some of the other shoes they've got. The Major x NewEra caps are sikk and I wanted a Major x LRG shirt but they were out of my size :(. The apparel side is a bit lacking but from what I can see they've got stuff in boxes trying to put out. People there were really friendly though, must love that. Overall good visit. For everyone else, I would check back in a month or two when they are settled in for a real evaluation.

right d51 doesn't have any accounts as of yet but it is possible to get an account with reebok and adidas doing consignment. nike on the other hand...probably won't happen. but d51 is definitely worth visiting if you're in the area. they are having the shoe drive all this week. so stop in and drop em off ya kicks. it's for a good cause :)

Major is def still a work in progress. Lots of potential though. For some reason, I get really excited when going into the store, yet I come out with nothing. It's just something entirely different from anything going down in DC. The guys around Major are already hating. In other news, this guy that came into the place I work told me that he talked to Greg from Elite and he told him that they were opening a store up in DC in April. Also, I dropped by Sportzone and talked to some dude about Major. He told me that Sportzone is trying hard to get an SB account which is kinda ridiculous since you need to be an actual skate shop to get an SB account. Ya ....idk
