Up until now the location of the Stussy Vancouver Chapter Store had only been used to launch the Boneyards collection, was thus used as a pop-up store. The permanent Stussy Vancouver Chapter Store will open its doors in October, as Matt George reports today. 

We will keep you posted!

An era has come to an end. The Stussy NYC Chapter Store on Wooster Street is now closed. After 10 years at this location, the lease is up and they will not be re-opening this store. 10 Years ago, Stussy made a bold move coming to New York and they succeeded. The store remained since then on our list of shops to visit on every NYC trip. 
For now you can purchase Stussy, as well as Porter, at Union on Spring Street. Also the good news are, that there will be a new Stussy Chapter Store in the area, just not at the same location. We’ll keep you posted!

Yesterday we showed you first images of the new Nike Sportswear flagship store at 21 Mercer in Soho. Today we give you a look at the exclusive product that will be releasing at the store on its opening on August 22nd.
On the 22nd of August you will see the release of the Nike Air Force 1 Lux, coming in overall 12 colorways and only at the new flagship store. The REjuven8, a model that we introduced to you earlier this year, will also be coming in a nice line-up of colors, along with the new Lunar Racer, sporting the new Nike Flywire technology. Last but not least Nike will be releasing a technical M-65 patchwork jacket. The M-65 jacket is a true classic of military design. Updated and re-imagined as part of the NSW collection, it is produced from a highly functional three layer laminate waterproof breathable nylon. Each jacket comes with a different patwork layout and is thus unique.
If we did not give you enough reasons to pass by the new store, then we do not know what else to do!
After the jump detailed images of the other product.

Rumors had been floating around for months and then a few weeks ago the opening of a new San Francisco flagship store was finally announced by The Hundreds. The store opened its doors today. We are actually quite surprised by the interior design of the store, which is less simplistic than their first store in Los Angeles. But what they both have in common, is the overall dark atmosphere.

Take a close look at it after the jump, they had quite some interesting ideas for their new location.

UK brand Garbstore is about to open its first flagship store in London later this month. Here we have first pictures of the store, for now only of the basement, but it’s already looking really good.
In recent years we finally see some brands turning their back on the otherwise mostly Marketing driven fashion market. They return to their core principles of making good product. The interview that we wrote about this morning with Visvim Designer Hiroki Nakamura nicely demonstrated that, and Garbstore is for sure a brand that belongs in the very same category.
More news on the soon to open Garbstore Flagship store London, once we get closer to the opening.
More pictures after the jump.

In terms of retail outlets Stussy has always been very prominent in Japan, with overall 48 flagship stores. Always impressive to hear that number. But in 2007 and continuing in 2008 the brand his also increasing their presence on their home market again. Just recently we reported about the Stussy Hawaii flagship store, opened with Jules Gayton of Leilow.
2008 will see another few interesting openings by the brand. The next one to follow is Washington and who else could they have teamed up with, but with Commonwealth owner Omar Quiambao. Not only will they open a Stussy Chapter Store soon, they will also open For The Greater Good, a more mature store for customers that have gotten too old for the Commonwealth brand range. More information once we get closer to the opening.
Also in the next couple of months, we will see the opening of the first Stussy flagship store in Canada. It’s actually surprising that it took so long. The Toronto store will be opened and managed by Matt George, owner of the Goodfoot chain, Nomad and Ransom. Yet another perfect candidate and for sure we will see interesting collaborations from this new partnership.
We hope that Stussy will also start making some more moves in Europe, but for now its the North American turn! Via DNR.

This past weekend, Stussy opened their latest Chapter Store, in Honolulu on Hawaii.
“Stussy Honolulu features original artwork by NYC graffiti legend, Ghost, as well as personal touches from Leilow’s Jules Gayton, an original member of the Stussy NYC Tribe. DJ Jules established Leilow in 2003, after years of globetrotting and a desire to slow things down. Jules was able to combine his passion for music, art, skateboarding, surfing, vintage clothes and collecting into Leilow. Jules’ success with Leilow led to Stussy Honolulu. Nexus VII designed two special store tees (Stussy HI x Nexus VII Tee and Stussy HI x Nexus VII Posse Tee) just for the opening.”
Stussy Honolulu
1288 Ala Moana Blvd, Suite 106 (Hokua Tower)
Honolulu, HI 96814

An opening event will follow soon, as well as more produced especially made for the store. A Stussy Chapter Store headed by Jules Gayton from Leilow has to be something promising.
