A while back I mentioned the forthcoming N Mississippi shop Worn Path, a man-centric destination for “Small ’70s referential cruiser skateboards and supplies, Murdey Surfboards, Poler Camping Stuff, Juniper Ridge teas and household items, Tim Adam bags, books on Northwest plants identification as well as mushrooms and handmade houses, planters made by John Sardari (Goby Hardwoods), small furniture made by James Sinacore, knives by Opinel and Helle, letterpress cards and art by Fortress Letterpress, Zig Zag shoes, plus a mixture of clothing items and other goods to use while out in the wild,” according to owner Niles Armstrong, whose own line of accessories will round out the mix.
Well, its arrival is now imminent, with doors set to open this Saturday and an opening celebration scheduled for 7 pm. By the way, there is a veritable shitstorm (in the prettiest way) of fashion and retail events coming up in the next couple weeks, including—heyyyyyy—the Mercury‘s own Open Season fashion show on May 12. Keep an eye on MOD for all the updates.

Wait, what happened to Mississippi Records?
They moved to the corner of Sumner and Albina.
I predict a rash of newly-empowered-to-conquer-the-wilderness hipsters wasting away this summer within earshot of their cars/highways.
