151 Orchard St., 212-253-0588
Reed began as a place for Jeff Ng to sell his tee shirt line while his creative consultant business, Staple Design, was growing. One business fed the other and before long, Ng was collaborating with Staple clients like Nike, Uniqlo, and Dunderdon to design new products. Sneakers—neon, houndstooth ($70 to $200), etc.—are only 20% of Reed Space’s inventory. The rest ranges from Addict and Maharishi streetwear to Hoon jewelry to magazines like Beautiful/Decay and Streetwear Today to the obligatory eclectic music collection of soul, hip-hop, jazz, and R&B.
Best Sneaker Lifestyle Store
From the 2007 Best of New York issue of New York Magazine
Our mission this year: to hunt down not just the best but the best values in the eating, shopping, drinking, and general-consuming universe of New York. It’s quite the process, this, requiring eating and shopping and drinking (all in the name of research), followed by heated but civil discussion, and heated but less-civil discussion, until a winner emerges in each category.
