lucky tees inc

The lucky tees inc store sits a block from Herald Square, filling in the gap between big-box fashion and one-off boutiques. A quick stroll north of 34th Street or east from Sixth Avenue drops you right at its door. Small local designers share shelf space next to imported basics they focus on screen-printing and basic tees, but knitwear and accessories slide in between the racks.

Catch it mid-block on the south side of 28th between Broadway and Sixth; the building squats next to a handbag vendor and faces a parking garage. 49 W 28th St New York, NY 10001 is hard to miss once you’re scanning the numbered storefronts.

Call (212) 684-7200 and ask if the back rack still carries plain black tri-blends; visitors shrug when the hold music finally clicks off, but the line’s usually calm.
