Portland Threads is GoLocalPDX's weekly review of what Portlanders are wearing on the streets.
G-Star RAW opens up shop with plenty of raw and untreated denim and outerwear for Portland’s denim diehards.
“We are thrilled to be opening in Portland as it’s a significant part of G-Star’s growth strategy,” says Tony Lucia, G-Star’s North American CEO. “This location is particularly exciting as the Pacific Northwest is a fresh market for our brand.”
The new 2,100 square foot G-Star store located in The Pearl, features clothing and accessory collections (check out Pharrell’s recycled ocean plastic collection) with clean and minimal concrete and steel interior.
