Not sure if it's already been mentioned but Son of Stag just of brick lane is good.
Staff are very helpful without being pushy. What more do you need?

Hideout is probably the worst place I've ever been into for awkward silence and dickhead aloof staff.

Seems DPMHI on Great Pulteney Street is going to re-open, and when it does, that'll be the best. Fucking coolest store in streetwear in myyyy OpiNION.
Based on the article I read in Drapers, seem's it's still independent?

I'm pretty sure MHI/Maharishi is now owned by JD Sports.

As mentioned, recent Drapers interview states that Hardy Blechman retained ownership, an exec from Paul Smith is moving over there, and there are plans to re-open the GPS store. A credible source, and although I have no inside info to support it, I will that as the true situation. No idea when it's happening (the store) but I am sure it will take some time. At a time like this I guess it's logical to release such a statement to re-ignite confidence in them (instead of everyone thinking they're owned by JD and going downhill).

Hideout people were actually nice enough yesterday, must be reading this thread. One of them was the guy with true love knuckle tattoos who was in inventory

My personal experience with Hideout was your initial statement regarding them
