Amsterdam shopping

[auggie]

Heading to Amtserdam next week for 5 days, first time, and am wondering if anyone has any advice on any shops worth going too? Am up for anything, but primarily looking for denim, outerwear, and shoes...dress or sneakers.

tks

Huf is in San Francisco and LA, isn't it? Are you perhaps thinking of Patta?

I'd also check out Shoebaloo in the P.C. Hooftstraat if I were you, the have designer sneakers etc.
But mainly the shop just looks awesome:
(Yes the colours change.)

Tenue de Nimes indeed. Probably the best place in Amsterdam to get some kick-ass denim. Also there is a Red Wing store, the guys at TdN can tell you more about it.

Also look for MOOS, it's a one-man made-to-measure tailoring shop. He can make you a pair of jeans, or any other basics-related stuff. Also, in the Nine Streets (Negen Straatjes), you can find the store of Jason Denham (for more info see his site: http://www.denhamthejeanmaker.com). This dude was one of the guys behind Blue Blood, a dutch brand who makes jeans and other clothing. Some interesting stuff, as this guy really lives for his work.
