New York, New York, the big city of dreams, also the busiest city in the United States. Anyways enough about the city, lets talk about the shops! So I went into the city around noonish today, and I hit up R3con, Blades, Nort, Cliente, Bape, DQM, Transit, and a bunch of other stores. While at DQM I met two guys named Toru and Juls, he was a really cool guy and knew a lot about HYPEBEAST which I found very interesting! For dinner, I went to a place called Acme, they have the best burgers. If you plan on visiting New York, I suggest you visit all the stores I went to and more, and definitly check out Acme, their food and service is great!
