—01. Interview with Jockum Hallin & Hannes Hodgeman.

Words

A couple of our friends in Sweden have got together to open a shop. Tres Bien and Our Legacy have had a strong relationship for a long time now so it makes sense for them to join forces in Stockholm. The store is very clean, uses the space nicely and will no doubt be a success with the loyal following both brands have built over the past few years. You should also be able to find the new issue of Inventory on their shelves in the coming weeks too.

Malmö (tres bien) is cool, Stockholm (welcome store) is boring: full of self obsessed, ice cold people.
Look forward to see Beams in the store though!

I really need to figure out a way to get to Stockholm.

True, the Stockholm store is just another shop with self obsessed utter snobbish staff.
Not anything like the Malmo shop

Don't forget the Nitty Gritty shop if you head to Stockholm! I went but couldn't stomach the prices . Lovely stock though, and it's right next to the existing Our Legacy shop.

I should've guessed it'd be like that. These guys natter about welcoming people into their store, but the reality is that they're all quite self obsessed, arrogant and "cold".
Nice store but its a shame that even in mens clothing there is still alot of style over substance.

I don't agree with the comments above. I've visited the store twice and both times the staff has been really nice. Great store, great people.

From a customer standpoint, albeit currently virtual. I think the styling and appearance of the store itself is a little obvious and uninspiring for the potential customer, pilgrim. It's a bit 90s sterile, and would be nicer with a nod here or there to the epoch that a lot of the clothes draw their heritage and even their structural DNA from. It doesn't need to go time warp RRL NYC but say Garbstore London hits a little closer.

^ H,
I can Understand you think the staff are really nice...
Does H stands for Hannes Hogeman?

I was mostly talking about the cities as I've not been to the Welcome store yet. I just don't like the attitude in Stockholm, very uptight and exclusive.
