More West 72

So guys, do you know what happens when a pretty girl discovers your blog?  You start posting again!  Funny how that works.

Anyways, every so often I stroll into West 72, a small store on the upper west side, to see if anything catches my eye.  Even though they have great shoes, and a snappy collection of urban swag, I also love the artwork on the wall.  Yesterday I spotted a vintage basketball board game hanging casually in the corner, and well, I fell in love with it.  Something like this.

Vintage 1960's Tudor Tru-Action Magnetic Basketball Game $18


The one they had wasn't for sale, but I did make them a pretty low offer, which they were surprisingly able to refuse.  This version is pretty cheap on Ebay though.  I'll have to think about it.

Ok, but now back to the "urban swag".  Check out this cool retro T from Nike, $30 in store.



I was too big for the medium, too small for the large, and it was pre-shrunk.  Such a cruel world.
