heading to San francisco. advice?

[plansb]

Hey guys, I'm headed to San fran next week for a work conference. I've never been before and was looking for some local tips. Where should I go for shoes/shopping, food, and what sites do I HAVE to see? I'm only going to be in town for 3 days but hoping to explore the city as much as possible. Thanks in advance for any tips!

When you're in the cab on the way to the hotel, ask your driver to swing by the power exchange. Good eats over there.

Shopping: Union Square area http://www.visitunionsquaresf.com

Tourist Attraction: Pier 39, Lombard St, Golden Gate Park

The Hundreds is near downtown. It's on Post and Sutter. Darkside Initiative is in North Beach. If you are okay with walking up hills, it's not that far away from Union Square. Benny Gold is a Bart ride away from Union Square if you like his clothes. Haight Street has Black Scale, TRUE SF, FTC skateshop and some hippie shops. Sadly there aren't a whole lot of shoe shops that are different out here. If you are looking for some rarities, you most likely won't find it unless you came on release day.

I was out there last week for a conference.  Since i was at a conference, i didnt have as much time to explore the city as i would have liked.  I hit up Nike SF and that was really about it shoe-wise.  I know sole supremacy is like 30-40 minutes outside of the city, i would have loved to have been able to stop by there, but just didnt have the time.  It was an awesome city, from what i got to see, though.  Enjoy.

They had people handing out the little cards for the strippers/hookers, felt like i was in Vegas.

 

[soleger24]

how is the sneaker game following there? im going to be going up there this weekend. I hope it is easier to get shoes up there

Bruh do not go to power exchange. you'll be scarred for life lol.

Check out infinite on post and jones, its a block up from hundreds. They got a dope collection of brands and are mad humble. If you are from cali get that medical card day 1 and hit green door for that killa. Don't buy drugs from homeless people. if you want to check out the nightlife you got monarch, mighty, f8, 1015 folsom, mezzanine and mad dive bars in the mission. make sure you bring hoodies, its gets cold up there.

and most of the dope sneaker spots are out of the city... best bet for kicks is in the haight though. sneakers heads be on it as far as releases though so you won't find anything limited floating around.

they do you have to go to the ones that don't serve alcohol.

 

[plansb]

same thing here in PA.  serve alcohol = tops off only    dont serve alcohol (BYOB) = everything off

Good thing about Broadway strip clubs is that you can get faded at a 21+ joint, then walk across the street to a 18+ (***** out) joint

As far as I know, the store in SF is an actual retail store. The outlet is in Berkeley. I don't mess with NF so I wouldn't know if there's really any deals.

My bad on saying the wrong location but I plan to stop by just to see what the outlet has to offer
