    The coolest store! They have a lot of nice clothing, ceramics, accessories, glasses, denim, etc. Scored a very warm pair of wool gloves and knitted cap, and not at too bad of a price either. The selection exudes high quality and fashion. No complaints about the staff, they were polite and chill.

    Cream of the crop vintage Levi's in the back section (redlines, big E's)

    On a recent visit to NYC, I was on a mission to look for vintage men's Levi's. I figured that out of all the places in the world, there must be at least one shop that truly specializes in them, to the point of matching my level of nerdiness of analyzing the cut, age, country of manufacture, etc of each pair. After visiting a few other vintage and thrift stores around the city, I found my mecca at Front General Store. While I would have to pore through every pair at other shops to maybe find one diamond in the rough, it seemed that just about every pair of Levi's they had were high quality made in USA, with even some deadstock pairs of orange tabs in the mix. The main stacks of denim are toward the back portion of the main area of the store. Their level of curation and organization (mixed up some by customers, but otherwise organized by cut and very clearly marked with sizes) does not come cheap as you can expect to pay $100+ for a pair.. you might be able to find similar pairs for half that elsewhere, but you'd really have to search through a lot to find them. The small area in the very very back of the store is where the top gems are though. On one of the racks is the best denim they have, a mixture of redlines and even some big E's. You MIGHT get lucky running across a pair like these elsewhere, but the experience of being able to look through an entire group of them together is nearly museum-like. This is definitely a destination shop worth the trek!

    If you're looking for a bargain this isn't the spot. While not necessarily overpriced they exclusively curate high quality offerings, and I throughly appreciate it. Beautiful items for the kitchen (the unglazed plates and bowls were stunning), very cool miscellaneous items, and a variety of stylish and prototypically Brooklyn clothes. Absolutely worth stopping in!

    ATMOSPHERE Aurgh! Too cute. I'm in love with all the ceramic-wares. Each item is such an art piece. All the small gifts too, such great designs. In the back, has some clothing.

    Lol what...

    Cool shop, but the prices are absolutely insane. (Sigh, Brooklyn). They had vintage graphic sweatshirts for over $50 (one Packers sweatshirt was over $200!) and this old used Hanes t-shirt was $38. Their non-clothing items were great and fairly priced, but if you are looking for the style of clothes they carry, just go to a Goodwill or Salvation Army Store...

    Great gem of a store in Dumbo. Wide selection of wares from around the globe, like leather Bohemia slippers from Morocco in an array of colors. Beautiful jewelry including 14k gold necklaces, notebooks, art supplies, clothing. Just go visit!

    A nice vintage store in DUMBO that I had the chance to stop by today. I do not know why but "Levi's" brand was all over the store, mostly shorts. So the clothing lost my attention fast however they have nice bandanas, 100% cotton and prices are between $6-$25. They also have many glasses. Vintage African glass beads are $20. They have pins, key chain, some hand made toys. I would recommend the store for unique gifts.

    Super cute vintage store with a good selection of customized terrariums

    Random strolling in the Dumbo hood n was pleasantly surprised by this cute little gem! Easy to shop, well organized, friendly staff, good selections of vintage and new and mostly of all very well priced! Will definitely come back for more! Ps. Some of my favorites were the vintage sunglasses/ glasses along with the small leather goods selection.

    A sales associate helped me find the perfect pair of vintage levi's in what seemed to be an endless sea of denim.

    Julia and crew are the best in town for hat repairs,sweatbands, sizing, stretching, new hat bands,…read moreand lovely custom hats for gals/guys. I've always Been treated with kindness and hospitality . Their efficiency is hard to beat. Many times my jobs were done right in front of me, or I take a walk and it's completed in an hour. Most of all..the work is always CLEAN. Her work looks like it should.. it's always perfect...the angles in her bows, everything looks vintage authentic and legit. This is the one to go to, only her.. I trust her with my most very important jobs.. the results are always overwhelmingly pro, clean and beautifu.

    I initially walked by this place walking back home from a corepower class and there was a sign…read moreoutside that said "Hat Class in Progress." I was intrigued. A few weeks later, I walked by again and there was no hat class in progress. I popped in just to see what EVH is all about, as I love super niche businesses like this. I walked in and the owner was helping out a few other people, so I just perused around for a second. I had my airpods in with no music playing, hiding in plain sight. I heard the owners AWESOME British accent and thought to myself "wow it's really a vibe in here." At this exact moment, I spotted a hat that really caught my eye. It was a hat that had a mix matched denim pattern that could be paired with almost any outfit. I had a vision of me buying this hat and it becoming an integral part of my personality. "Oh, there goes the guy with the cool hat walking up 1st ave" onlookers would say as they walked by, jealous of my cool new hat. Cute girls would come up to me at the Wayland and or Ding-a-Ling saying "Oh my god, I love your hat!" ... "You haven't been to East Village Hats!??!?!?!" I would respond to them with a cheeky, endearing smile. However, when I picked up the hat it was like $130 and that's just out of my price range for a hat at this moment. Also, I have an extremely large head so the hat was probably a pipe dream all along. A man could dream can't he...?

    Overpriced Garbage - Stay Away!!! I bought a kapota from…read morePrimo Kapota over a year ago, thinking that since their prices are extraordinarily expensive, they must offer high quality and great service. I was very, very wrong. Despite paying such a high price, the quality was absolutely terrible. The kapota ripped apart in places that I barely even touch. After just a few months, I went back to them, expecting some level of responsibility. Instead, they shrugged it off and said, "Yeah, we don't know. That's your problem." Rather than fixing it properly, they just patched over the holes. And, of course, after a few months, the patches ripped again--plus new holes appeared! When I went back again, they told me, "Yeah, this is your problem." At first, they charged me $50 to patch up two small holes. Now, for the same holes plus a new one, they suddenly want $400! (I found much better tailor Bugi who did WONDERFUL job only for $40!!!!!!) This is outrageous. These people are scammers and charlatans. They charge a premium price for a garbage product and then try to squeeze even more money out of you for useless "repairs." Stay far, far away!
