Not to be mean or trite, but I really wasn't expecting a really first-rate skateboard shop--with…read moretwo locations at that--in Macon, Georgia. Nothing wrong with Macon, but given that Gainesville, Florida is a booming college town and can't even manage a shop of this caliber . . . given that Daytona Beach has a long history of skateboarding and a sick new park and can't manage something this rad either, I guess I was kinda surprised. Clockwork carries Nike SB sneakers--they may in fact be the only Georgia store outiside of the Atlanta metro area to do so (unless Augusta or Athens has one that does). They also carry a great selection of decks, trucks, wheels, clothing, and other brands of sneakers and soft goods that appeal to skaters. Both stores--the Macon Mall one and the one down near Warner-Robins AFB--are simply beautiful spaces. Many skate shops are thrown-together affairs with little thought to aesthetics, which is funny because most skaters I know are into things like the visual arts or woodworking so you're think our stores would carry over the same desire for good design we seek on decks and in our clothing. Clockwork does this: the stores are really beautiful. You don't expect that in a mall store. So you've got some chill kids running a skate shop that carries most everything you'd expect in even a big-city shop like the SBs and other limited, rare, goods and you have it in a moderate-sized Southern city's mall . . . yeah. Savannah, where I lived for a while, and of course Atlanta, act like they've got the market on sophisticated youth culture in Georgia and then here comes along a skate shop with two locations down in Macon that just blows everything else out of the water.
