A worth while Interview with Chris Gibbs , A pioneer in the streetwear game and Owner of Union ( if you have driven down LaBrea near Beverly in L.A.  you cant miss his spot) Not quite sure about the Barneys Brands, who are they? And I would say that there are plenty of Brands stateside that are up to par with some of the major players in Japan, And I don’t mean to sound critical but  I know Crookid9 would rather buy American especially in these times, Even if it meant digging deeper into the culture. In the long run your starving the Home team, and when your starving its very hard to contribute to your maximum potential. All in all a good interview and thanks to Hypebeast for bringing it to us.
