Curated Shopping

by Josh Rubin

Stores like Colette, Moss, TKNY, Flight001 and many others offer a carefully selected and sometimes eclectic combination of products. These shops offer a refreshing change of scenery from the overly mallified global shopping landscape. Guy Trebay, for the New York Times, recently looked closer at how shopping is evolving and notes the increasing value of carefully edited selections. His argument is supported by references from Barry Schwartz, a professor of psychology at Swarthmore College and the author of The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less (soon to be published by HarperCollins).

As noted earlier, the latest entries to the Nike Artist Series were set to drop yesterday. Apparently, people lined up outside of Niketowns across the country 24 hours in advance of their unveiling to get a chance to buy a pair of their own. Of the three designs, the ESPO Air Force II (pictured above) seems to be the biggest hit.
