Borderline the only clothing store I shop at. Frank always has the goods, and the community he has built around the shop itself is just as special. In my eyes it’s the closest modern day equivalent to Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood's infamous shop ‘SEX’ in 70’s London—except ya know, less punky and more baggy.

My friends Sam and Amber design and run these clothing brands in LA and it's usually what I'm wearing. Huge cuts with big pockets and everything is comfortable. They also have a store called Cloud College on the east side that sells in house brands as well as local weirdo designers. It's something

Neighbour in Gastown has several stores (Menswear, Womenswear and Home) and they all carry amazing selection of brands. Everything from niche Japanese brands (Auralee, Comoli) to the popular contemporary labels (Our Legacy, Lemaire) or the ultra exclusive (Oliver Church). Not to mention the staff is very friendly and I always drop by the mens store to chat and get recs for local restaurants.

Hands down the best store in New York and nowhere else comes close. It’s tucked away on Bond Street in SoHo and its owner, Sweetu Patel, keeps it stocked with a perfect mix of wardrobe essentials. He also designs a flawless house brand. It’s an insider’s store. There’s nothing fussy or trendy to find here. It’s clean, it’s simple, and it’s rare that 90% of a store’s stock calls one’s name but C’H’C’M does just that. Plus, there’s always someone well-dressed perusing the shop’s wares and if that’s not a marker that you’re in the right place, I’m not sure what is.

Though Massive Attack and Portishead often steal the trip-hop limelight (and perhaps rightfully so), Sneaker Pimp's 6 Underground is the real unsung masterpiece of the genre in my opinion. It’s crafty sampling of John Barry’s Goldfinger Bond score, Kelli Ali’s arresting vocal, and Nellee Hooper’s bombastic beat create an effect that I can only describe as novacane. I thank my father for turning me on to trip-hop so early, as it soundtracked much of my youth through middle and high school.
