587 5th Avenue NY | Quiksilver
This retailer is aimed at 20-something year old men who are athletically active, especially in surfing and other water sports. Quiksilver has a vast collection of men’s California “surfer dude”-style boardshorts, jackets, sweatshirts, jeans and other activewear. That, as well as accessories like backpacks, watches, hats and shoes. There is also an assortment of various garments and accessories for young women, too.
Skaters can choose from a small range of wheels and, in-season, snowboarders will find all their necessary gear. Surfboard-shaped door handles and chandeliers help set the theme, as do museum-like displays of surfing memorabilia and Playstation kiosks offering virtual samples of the surf, snow, and skate lifestyles.
