General Sportwear Co

Clothing store near the garment district’s rhythm—naturally enough there’s a shop focused on carrying basics with a sporting edge. General Sportwear Co sits a few blocks west: 230 W 38th St on the 18th floor, a straightforward vertical slice in a neighborhood built for inventory and quick stops.

Daytime light hits that stretch of 38th between Broadway and 7th, explains why the building gets its share of foot traffic. While many stores here lean into seasonal trends, this one keeps core styles within arm’s reach. Quarter-zips and layered tops hang beside caps and light outerwear on metal fixtures you’ll find on a used-to-be warehouse floor.

Inside, service stays focused—changes, alterations, and same-day small-run orders done while you wait or pick up later. A quick call ahead keeps things moving; try (212) 764-5820. They don’t hide behind voicemail gates, so a ring often gets you the shelf location without extra back-and-forth.

The building sits right by the post office cluster, where midtown’s grid hums late into the evening. Slide the map link for door-to-door: https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89c259ac8bcd68e5:0xd38c597df44ce119.
