1. The abercrombie store on Savile Row in London was just as lame as on 5th avenue.
2. Sperry Topsiders have done the first collaboration ever, with Band Of Outsiders. Not lame at all.
3. Freeman sporting club hadn't got their stuff in to the store when I was in NYC, so I had to buy a toothbrush in bone and 3 ties from spring 07, still the best store in NYC.
