my favorite wicker park store

by jaysato

this my favorite wicker park store. i said so myself to the owner. every time i make a trip to wicker park. i make a stop here. i got myself a nice Stussy scarf which i can't find much of that brand anywhere in Chicago. Plus i got my brother a nice Tagger messenger bag for his birthday. I might go back there to buy myself a hat.

Its my personal favorite because people tend to go to Leaders, Urban Outfitters, thrifts stores and Belmont Army Surplus.

Garb for guys

by megoops

My boyfriend and I dropped in to Futurgarb as we were perusing the clothing stores down Milwaukee Ave. My boyfriend was happy to see a section of Affliction clothing with some pieces that he didn't see at other Affliction-carying stores (but observed that they were marked up quite a bit); however, I didn't really find anything good in the women's section. The lady (owner? manager?) behind the counter was really nice and saw that my boyfriend was looking at one of the sweaters and offered a discount for it on the spot. A good place for guys' apparel if you can haggle down the price, not really worth it for girls' clothing.

Note: If you're allergic to cats, probably don't want to shop here. There were 3 friendly little guys roaming about the store.

• Pros: Service, discount specials
• Cons: Small variety of women's apparel
