While in Philly last weekend we decided to hit up UBIQ - a three story urban apparel and sneaker store carrying all the finest by:

Nike. Supreme. NikeSB. Undefeated. Clae. Stussy. Stussy Deluxe.
Perks & Mini. Adidas. Alphanumeric. Vans. Vans Vault. 10Deep.
Converse. Ransom. Jordan Brand. Original Fake. Reebok. TRKFLD.
New Balance. WeSC. K-Swiss. JasonMarkk. New Era. Penfield. Medicom
Staple. Tokion. UMBRO by Kim Jones.

The veteran retailer known world-wide opens its doors to an eager Philadelphia, hungry for product that is not easy to come by within city limits, and just recently UBIQ opened its doors to the Stussy family on the 3rd floor.

Coming from MSTRPLN and Philly’s sneaker boutique, UBIQ is a pair of Dunks that can detect WIFI hot spots anywhere its owner walks. The sneakers are called, A Step in the Right Direction, or ASRD in short. From a first glance, I thought of the Micropacers and/or the works of Sabatoge. Most, if not all sneaker heads must think I’m crazy for the latter comparison. The reference to SBTG is mainly due to the stealthy facade and militant like emblem. With the ASRD sneakers, owners of the IPOD touch can now get connectivity wherever a hot spot is detected. With no release date or price disclosed, expect to pay a lot of guape. Off topic, another glance made me think of Darth Vader’s gauntlet.
