Has Brooklyn Industries gotten too big for its britches in Park Slope? It seems, on the contrary, that its britches may have gotten too big for the retailer. The store is expanding its location on 7th Avenue and 9th Street to include the storefront next door, which is currently taken up by Urban Optical. (The glasses shop, in turn, is moving a couple storefronts down, to the space that was recently vacated by Il Camelion Salon.) Michelle Williams to the contrary, it appears there’s no shortage of shoppers looking to snap up Brooklyn-branded t-shirts and hoodies. GMAP

  1. Just wanted to chime in. I really Brooklyn Industries stuff. Like the original prints on the shirts. Like the shorts and pants which are cut well.

    I think people on this blog tend to fly off the handle a little. Chill out guys and go back to picking tile and back splashes.

  2. Nah. I don’t shop at BI myself, but I have nothing against them either.

    I’m happy to see a place in the neighborhood doing well.

    There is certainly a lot more worthy things in the world to critique than BI.

    Like I said, their bags are pretty popular.

  3. Wow, so many people on here thinking they are the fashion police. I probably couldn’t tell you people apart from the suburban Kmart or Kohl’s shoppers. Or don’t tell me you buy from that crap “vintage” store on 5th..what’s it called? Beacon’s closet? I can probably smell you a mile away then…

  4. Do not be a hater just because you can not afford it. People choose what to splurg on.
    You obvious do not know about retail. I did hear with the expansion they are starting to allow lay-away plans for window kissing zombies like yourself. 🙂
