sprmrkt.

I was surfing spottedbylocals/amsterdam the other day and read about SPRMRKT, a chain of boutiques whose portfolio of brands will give any hipster butterflies:


maison martin margiela
damir doma
unconditional
helmut lang
raf simons
rick owens
acne
gareth pugh
...and much more


Each of the 4 stores (sprmrkt, spr+, sprmrkt sth, spr specials) have their own unique concept, design, and set of brands.  Today I paid a visit to spr specials: a two-story shop that sells last season's collections at a 50% discount on the first floor and temporarily houses a different designer every 100 days on the ground floor (currently: Scandinavian designer Henrik Vibskov).  Although I didn't purchase anything this time around (the dreary weather didn't put me in the shopping / buy things I don't need mood), I'm definitely looking forward to visiting the other stores as well as this store again in the future.
