2803 Coney Island Ave., nr. Ave. Z, Gravesend; 718-332-7864With 3,000 pairs of jeans in stock, this mini-chain is an encyclopedia of every style, color, and brand currently populating the men’s and women’s denim universe. Names like J Brand, Earnest Sewn, and Genetic are stacked next to smaller lines like Unknown Factory, Blank, and DL 1961.
