For nine years, this jean shop sat quietly towards the end of West 14th Street. Eric Goldstein took the chance and opened here well before the glamourati arrived and took over the Meatpacking District. Today, his denim and leather shop has become "the" place to shop, however, we are pleased to report that there is not a hint of pretension from anyone inside. Customers are encouraged to browse freely and to absorb the hundreds of jeans in their many colors and styles while the staff waits quietly ready to answer any questions. And browse we did. There are endless racks of beautiful jeans, as well as soft leather jackets, trendy leather skirts, quirky t-shirts, and much more tucked away. Without a doubt Jean Shop NYC is a very special Manhattan Sideways hidden gem, that we look forward to returning to when we are in need of our next pair of quality, well-fitting jeans.
