How about the Isotopes ? They have a cool color scheme traditional to the SW ? AZ and NM are Libertarian from a social vibe standpoint and that makes the Desert SW wonderful ! We don't follow trends like a herd of sheep.

I bet. The Tapout look from the guys and the ugly platform sandles with too much damn make up are probably a big tribute. Plus the lack of better retail.

I think they went through the Walmarts of the US. I have seen people in pajamas and slippers every time I go to Walmart on Carlise. The only place in the country I have seen worse dressed was in a small town in Texas. Also, people seem to shower a lot less here than most cities I lived in.

Granted, there are no Nordstroms, Bloomingdales, Saks Fith Avenue or Lord and Taylors like there are in many cities. I duess if there was a demand, they would build these type stores,

With the exception of Milwaukee, I've either traveled to or lived in all the cities on this list. Fashion conciseness is the least of their worries.

Shopping at any of those stores does not guarantee that someone is fashionable, hip or nicely dressed. I have seen plenty of people walking out of those stores with bags of clothes dressed tacky, over the top and obsurdely. Conversely i have seen many people walk out of Banana Republic, Gap, Kohl's and a host of other similar places dressed nice, hip and/or fashionable. Just because something has a lot of dollars attached to it doesn't make it the end all.
