Well you basically got all the portland stores covered but if you go to washington square you can get some stussy andother stuff at metro park. Its pretty legit.

^^^ Never heard of it... I also have only been to Washington Square once in my life... Lloyd center FTW. I guess I'll hit it up.

I hit up destroy today. The store is nice. They need more brands... Also, that blazers inspired Burnside tee would be a billion times cooler if it said Burnside on the front and destroy above the number on the back.

metropark is so gay, its metro sexual. it is a store in washington square that is a even more trendy urban outfitters. They mostly carry LRG SHmack, and weird indie rockish clothing. Hell wack, no not reccomend. Lloyd Center Food court is dope as hell

Metro Park is definitely metrosexual. The store basically looks like Jim Jones closet...

They have really been trying to revamp washington square, but at the end of the day its still a suburban mall made for suburban people.

Yeah Washington Sqaure is not my cup of tea but Metro Park does got some pretty cheap stuff but is definetly not amazing but sometimes you might be able to catch something you like on sale. So did you guys see Lifted is going out of business? i dont think you mentioned it anywhere...I really never was a fan of it. But they were in The Source Magazine before so I thought they should be doing well but guess not.

Fuck really? I dropped in when I saw all the boxes on the tables (it looked like a going out of business sale)...so I asked one of the employees and he said they were just clearing out the inventory.

Has this been confirmed?

That would suck if lifted was going under... Chris was a tight dude. But isn't he in Phoenix these days?

Well I went in there last week and they were telling me how there getting there resumes ready to apply for some real jobs. They said they were pretty disappointed about it and how its hard to keep up a small boutique when anyone could just get the stuff there selling at the mall or other places. He was also saying how he knows a bunch of other boutiques that are struggling to. Is that true? I find it hard to believe that it would be so difficult to keep a business like that going strong. Maybe I just am nieve but I just think they didnt have that good of a store and if they created more of a buzz with different products that they would have done better. I dont want to put them down to much considering I did go in there and get some stuff for more then half off and that made me pretty happy.

yeah they went out of business, but I can see why. Not a very big market out here, and they sell the same shoes as justbe without justbe's clothing. tight dudes for sure.

Yeah but they were just trying to make money, but they were some real cool dudes in there, I wished them luck but the market for retail managers and things like that is not to good and even if they get the job it will be alot different then working at lifted thats for sure. But back on to a topic...You really think Lupe tickets will be hard to get? Suprisingly alot of people still have not heard of him or like him

It doesn't help that all the sneakers in the last few years sucked...

And that all the sneakerhead kids from the golden era of NT are now just rich and on that SUFU tip...

and that, well, there's just not the demand for that BS in portland.

and Lupe was dope shit, the band played all of his beats so alot of them were harder and had a more rcokish sound. Example was Dumb it Down, great lyrically but not one of my favorite songs but he performed that one to the upper eschelon. So dope, he was flippin shit on stage

^Damn, yeah my uncle ran the lights for the concert and he said it was a real good show. He made me regret having a job and not being able to go. I remember when I checked out Lupe at the Kanye show way back before he became this icon and he was doing it big then. Lupe definetly has everything going for him.
