Those with enough panache to sport rainbow-camouflage sneakers and Hawaiian-print jackets shop at Lions Den.

Nice collection of clothes. I usually go there to buy Stussy stuff. They have sneakers as well with a large collection of New Balance shoes. The staff is friendly, but the parking can be hard to find during the day.

Pros

+ Nice staff, designer brands, cool atmostphere

Cons

- Hard to find, not much parking

so this place is one of those secret places, it's in chinatown and it's like the last thing youd expect to see there. but they had all the hard to find LE shirts ive wanted, and i think it is the ONLY place that sells alife in this city. YEEEEEEEAH. anyway if youre into that stuff you should check it out. it's the best.

Pros

+ one of a kind things

Cons
