1426 Wisconsin Avenue NW, in the heart of Georgetown Shopping District.

On my recent trip to our nation capital I was told that I need to take a little time out of my site seeing hours and stop by and store in Georgetown called Major. So after pulling my arm I decided to stop in and check it out. When i first walked into the place I was so overwelmed I think it’s becuase  im not really a shoe guy and this place had shoes for days. I guess if you are a shoe head this is your stopping point in the US im not just talking in DC or even the eastern area the whole fucking USA. The Guy that was with me was a shoe head and he about shit himself when he saw the collection of rare kicks on every wall. I’m more the New era hat kinda guy and this place was a heaven set for me as well. !!!!Shelves of great styles!!!!  Ok lets cut this shit short before I start sucking some Major dick here  HAHAHAHA. The place is the shit they have great brands fucking amazing hats, bags, and most of all (for you dumb shoe heads) a crap load of shoes. I don’t need to label off the brands you just need to stop in and check it out. Wait I forgot the most important thing !!!!!!!   There is no Shit head cool guy go fuck your self attitude. I rocked in, in some old beat up vans and they still took the time to chat me up.   Hit this place when you are in town because it’s one of the best stores I have been in.

Now let me discuss what left a sour taste in my mouth: first of all, the selection was very limited. A few tees, even less hoodies / jackets, and one style of hat (their own) in 4 colorways. Though the sneaker selection was not bad at all, the rest is really slim pickins. “Why have a shop ?” is the eternal question with nyc streetwear stores. There is a reason why only the shops with great selection stay in business, and even a lot of them are struggling. But the coup de grace for me was really the complete and absolute lack of any service whatsoever. The owners (as i came to find out), chilled outside the store chatting with each other. No one even entered the store while i was in there. No “hey check this out” or “let me know if you like something” or “hey we just got these dope sneakers in”. There used to be such a thing as a hustle, but these days it seems like everyone is too cool to even budge. Or scared to. Now i understand that you’re the king of the universe for owning a shop, but you’re just being rude, pathetic and downright an asshole, for ignoring your clientele. It’s just tiring. No wonder these shops are folding one after another. To be honest: Good Riddance! Shove that attitude where the sun don’t shine, and make room for people who are genuinely interested in the hustle, in providing quality gear to their clients and who are interested in meeting people and creating a streetwear community. I felt like i was not even allowed to step foot in that place. What a pathetic bunch.

If you feel like copping some of their gear, i say go ahead, it’s pretty cool. But if you expect to be treated like a human being, yeah…not gonna happen. All in all, don’t waste your time on this shop. There are much better ones where the staff actually cares about you and spends time helping you select cool gear as well as introduce you to lines you might have never heard of.

The hustle is officially dead. It’s just a bunch of posers. Next!

I really wanted to like this shop I even went back 4 different times, but in the end I can not give them a good review. The shop is very bare at first I thought that they were going out of Biz but it seemed that each time I came in there was a differnt 8 shirts of the rack. I posted this photo because this is what I thought that I was going to find. No joke this was not it. I do have to give them credit for pricing their shoes very fair. So if you are looking for some ok looking shoes at a really good price then this is your stop. They carry the same stuff that David Z would but I say support the small local shop. Now to the last bad remark then I will stop. Each time I walked in there was that to cool for school GUY standing behind the counter not even giving me the time of day. HELLO I came here to spend money!!!! 4 times is enough for me there are a ton of other stores I can spend my money in. Front street is out.

Stumble It!

 This shop is everything 80’s I have no Idea if that is good or bad. I guess it all depends on what “Neighborhood” you live in. So I guess this is good news for all of you wanna be Hipsters that never had a chance to be apart of the 80’s. Other then that this shop is what it is, and for what it it is a think it just an ok shop. I guess I am really in the middle of the road with this place.

Most of the time I don’t even take the time to walk in to shoe stores like this but I had a few seconds to kill before dinner. And After wasting my time by walking into Prodigy NYC I will never make that mistake again. First off the whole I am to cool to talk to you because I rock some throwback nikes is over. This by far was one of the worst shops I have ever been in. No one asked me for help as a matter of fact I don’t even think they gave shit I was in their store. This shop as nothing to offer to the shoe culture. If you must support nikes I say spend your money at some other shop like KCDC or Flight club. Prodigy NYC just needs to burn down.

The Sticker Guy
https://www.stickerguy.com/

We are always looking for ways to get our name out, with out it costing a ton of cash. One way to get this job done is with stuckers. We all know that the Sticker Guy is the cheapest!!! Where else in the world can you get stickers for this-

Red and black

4.25″ x 2.75″
500 stickers for $86 ppd

This is an amazing price. But my first thought was “there is no way these are good stickers” So to put it to the test. I placed a sticker order, and here is what I found out. The price was right for sure, but the wait time was not. It took me about 6 weeks to get my stickers, so if you are in a rush this is not the place for you. The ordering process was really smooth. After a long wait I dug into the box of new stickers and ran right out posting. I wanted to get as many up before the winter hit so I can see how long they will last. Now here it is !!!! I do have to give it to the sticker guy my stickers were still up after a long winter and into the summer. There was no fading and they looked as good as new. So if you dont mind the 6 to 8 week turn around time then the sticker guy is your one stop shop for the basic one color sticker.
