J.Crew to Open a Second Men’s Store in Soho

We don’t know what J.Crew thinks it’s doing expanding in the midst of this hellish financial market, but the retailer is opening another men’s store in Soho. They recently opened their first men’s boutique in the old Liquor Store Bar space in Tribeca, upsetting foodies across the city. Their second man-tique will open on Broadway in the space where Universal News is now, right next door to the company’s Madewell store. They’ll probably upset magazine addicts along the way (we’re already displeased). Do men really need two of these things so close together, especially when all the finance dudes who shop there are losing their jobs and won’t be spending $120 on weekend khakis anymore? They may have to save up for those bottles at hot nightclubs now. [Racked]
