[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not a fan of Amazon -- I need to touch and feel and try on before buying, plus Amazon's labor practices are appalling.  I can walk to FH, but agree with OP that it's dismal, so I never shop there -- just get on Metro to go to work.  I also hate driving and malls.  So, basically, I never buy clothes here, unless I have no other choice.  But when I go to Chicago for work -- every month or so for a couple of days--  I love walking up Michigan Avenue and over to the Near North Side, where I can shop at all the same stores that I'd find in FH or Tysons or Westbrook Montgomery (aka, the ghost town near Cabin John park).  When I was in Chicago last month, I had two hours to myself and shopped at Patagonia and Madewell.  With more time, I would have stopped in at Uniqlo and Reformation too . . . I'll definitely hit those next time.  What makes that area more inviting is the street feel -- the architecture, people-watching, and pedestrian-friendly street grid.[/quote]

You just described Georgetown where you can shop at all the same stores you mentioned in a nice cute town setting. Since Georgetown isn't really that far NWDC, people probably prefer to go there for the nicer walking experience. [/quote]
