Good article, thanks.

I tried to check out the new place on market called Maas & Stacks last Sunday but it was closed. I've heard good things about them, though. One of the only places in SF that carries Common Projects.

"Dapper" is not a word I associate with the Mission. God bless them for getting guys into anything beyond hoodies and T's.

I think that's the most on-target part of the whole story, actually. I feel like this same story has been rewritten over and over in the past few years, and papers and magazines keep treating it like it's something new.
