Any 'must see' stores in Florence? I'll be there in a few weeks...

Will be in Europe for a few weeks at the start of Sept and planning on hitting Collete and MMM in France, LN-CC in London (gonna make an appt soon), and gonna try to maybe hit up SS in Antwerp since I will have a car while I'm in Holland and its not too long a drive but no plans for places to shop in Italy as of now...


I don't know too many places but there's a shop called PNP that's basically the equivalent of Atelier. They do also carry Silent and some smaller brands I didn't recognize as well as the usual suspects (rick, damir, ccp, luc, ma+ etc) There are two locations one is pretty close to the Uffizi. I'm not sure where the other is but you can look it up. The one by the Uffizi is mens and womens, I think the SA told me the other location is all mens. Maybe Fuuma can chime in with more knowledge here.

The other thing I would recommend is to hit the street market by the central food market if you don't mind doing a little digging and want a cheap but very solid leather jacket. I think Drew once mentioned the markets in Florence are the only place to get a similar quality to TOJ for the price, don't quote me on that though. :foo: i bought a pretty sick suede bomber I'm waiting to debut in waywt when fall rolls around :slayer:

You can tell if someone looks good on accident or on purpose by their shoes.

Thanks, I just threw up a little in my mouth reading that.

I guess neither of the All Saints shirts I got are keepers. One's a little tight in the chest, so that's a no-brainer, but the weird thing is that the other one has wires running through a bunch of the seams. I have a couple of Uniqlo shirts that have wires in the collar so you can shape it, but this has wires along both sides of the front placket and wires along the edges of the cuffs. It's too bad, because that one fits me pretty well, and I like the pattern; I just don't feel like having to straighten out my shirt every time I stand up or something, though.

Anybody else had a shirt like this? Wires? Anyone?


those damn wires get ******* annoying

Haven't been here myself but this outlet seems promising.
