ROUND 2 STORE: NEW YORK “VINTAGE GRAILS”
Whether it’s Supreme or Polo, there’s always a buyer.
Round Two Hollywood finally unwrapped its new store in New York’s Lower East Side today. Co-owners Sean Wotherspoon — the winner of Nike’s Air Max “Vote Forward” contest, Chris Russow and Luke Fracher was joined by legendary New York graffiti artist Stash as they welcomed a crowd of resellers, vintage and thrift fanatics and Supreme collectors alike in through the store’s doors.
Inside, coveted and rare finds adorned the shelves from top to bottom; tees, jackets, baseball jerseys, hats and sneakers all from Supreme, The North Face, Stone Island, BAPE and Polo were ready to be purchased. Everything ranging from original black Supreme x Nike Dunk SB Lows to a Supreme Kermit tee could be found. At the rear of the store, bags, backpacks, slings, and a slew of adidas YEEZY BOOST 350s hung on fences and filled display cases respectively. A section of sneakers filled an entire wall and included hidden gems like a pair of Nike Air Max 90 “DQM Bacons” and a section of Nike Dunk SB grails featuring Londons, Zoo Yorks and Jedis. Wotherspoon also pointed out that the middle “island” section was a selection of merchandise curated to cater to and reflect New York.
While BAPE x Modernica chairs filled the store and awaited those who would eventually sit on them, outside, those at the front of the line who waited for over 24 hours were able to see the unveiling of the custom Round Two logo done by Stash. Spanning over a block long — around the corner from Stanton Street onto Essex Street — supporters and fans in line brought out fresh fits to flaunt and bags of goods they hoped to consign and sell.
