Today news came out that the much anticipated store by LeBron James, called UNKNWN, will be opening its doors to the public on December 1st, 2011, in Aventura, Florida’s high-end Aventura Mall. LeBron is working with a bunch of tastemakers, designers and other people in order to make the store a great experience. Previously we have already reported that the store will be carrying brands such as Original Fake, A.P.C., and of course Nike Tier Zero. Hopefully we can soon tell you more.

Recently Japanese brand visvim re-opened its Sendai F.I.L. flagship store and today we can give you a look at the latest interior by Hiroki Nakamura. As usual each piece of clothing and footwear is treated like an object and nicely presented in wooden vitrines or sitting on tables and bases. Compared to previous F.I.L. stores, visvim decided to go with a slightly darker theme in this case, using more dark wood on both furniture, floors and design elements.

The excitement is great for the opening of the first Carhartt Work In Progress store in the US. Today the store on Crosby Street will be officially opening its doors, releasing among other things, some special fragment design collaboration products.
Yesterday we had the chance to check out the new retail space in Soho. Carhartt did a great job with the built-out, presenting a look that is both true to their brand, yet also up to date with today’s world. A mix of vintage signs, beautiful wooden floors and furniture nicely presents the full collection of the Carhartt WIP brand. Make sure to check it out on your next New York trip.

This last week Nigo’s brand Human Made was busy opening their newest store and gallery space in Taipei, after just having recently opened the first flagship store for the brand in Tokyo. They teamed up with local retailer The Complete Studio for the store, which perfectly portrays the vintage and heritage inspirations of the brand.

This coming Friday, Japanese fast fashion chain Uniqlo will be opening its largest global flagship store to date on 5th Avenue in New York City. Thanks to Selectism we can give you a detailed look inside the impressive new mega store.
“Designed by Wonderwall (you know the name), the new UNIQLO shop will be the largest single retailer on Fifth Ave. with more than 89,000 square feet of retail space across three floors. Those familiar with the UNIQLO SOHO location and the congestion that fills it during the busy weekend, will want to explore the new Fifth Ave location. The retail space is open and wide for shopping and browsing. More than 200 LCD and LED screens throughout the new store will deliver UNIQLO styled looks and more.
The UNIQLO Fifth Ave. opening has been blitzed hard in the media for months now and Friday will be a exceptional day for the retailer. Those looking for store opening specials will be pleased to hear that their basic v-neck cashmere sweater will sell for $50 (down from the normal $99) and Japanese denim lovers will want to be quick to lock in a pair of slim or straight denim for $9.99. That’s right: $9.99.”
Largest store on 5th Avenue? Denim for 9.99 USD for the opening? I think those are enough reasons to pass by this coming Friday.

Here’s the deal with the Nike Employee Store in Beaverton, Oregon. To get in, you need to be a Nike employee or find one who will issue you a guest pass. In store you’ll find products from the full range of Nike brands including: NSW, Nike SB, Jordan, Cole Haan, Hurley and Converse. The items they stock are seasonal, meaning no irregular or out of season products like you find at the outlets. Essentially this is Nike heaven. We spent two hours there and it felt like only minutes.

Kazuki Kuraishi has established himself as a genuine force in design and creativity. Having worked with adidas on numerous great footwear and apparel offerings, as well the CASH CA brand, Kazuki now tries his hand at retail. His concept store, Heather Grey Wall, is set to open up this weekend in Tokyo and I am sure it will be a welcomed addition to the rich retail landscape of the city. We recently created a shopping guide to the city, so if you missed it, check it out here and make a mental note to add Heather Grey Wall to that mix. (Source: Unbar.)

After years of complaining that the Carhartt streetwear division from Europe was not selling in the US market, we have seen a slow but steady move into the US market over the last year. Licensed by Work In Progress in Europe, it took a different direction from the US division, establishing the Carhartt brand in Europe as a fashionable streetwear line.
The European collection will now finally make a proper move into the US market. Today Carhartt Europe announced the opening of a New York flagship store by the end of October 2011. A location has not been announced yet, but we will keep you posted!
