Holy plaid pants—Canal Jeans lives on in Brooklyn!

Non-ironic polyester kids' pants: 3 for $25.

Non-ironic '70s kids' pants: 3 for $25.

Those who thought Canal Jeans had vanished from the city’s radar in 2002 were only partially right.

Since the Broadway location shuttered, it’s no longer a closet-refilling station for NYU students and New Jersey high-school kids dying to land “most individualistic” in their class superlatives. (Do they still have those?) But Canal Jeans, or at least an intriguingly decrepit version of it, lives on behind the Target on Nostrand Avenue, and it remains a place where the adventurous budgeteer could come away with a bag full of finds, if not an afternoon’s amusement.

Buy a Brokelyn t-shirt, sponsor an intern!

picture-373This is one of our interns, Trevor, working hard to dig up stories that make your Brooklyn existence easier, cheaper and more fun. Trevor, an NYU grad who lives in Bushwick, has spent the summer calling up every CSA in Brooklyn so you don’t have to, sussing out date ideas, downloading free software to test, and more. Much more.

What does he ask in return? Only that you read his articles and email them to your friends from time to time. Comment on them when you’re so moved. And buy a $20 $19.99 t-shirt so we can have a kickass intern party at the end of the summer. Buy one t-shirt and Trevor can have two beers at the party. If you buy two t-shirts, he can have three beers and two items of his choice off of the appetizer tray. Three t-shirts, and you get an autographed printout of your favorite Trevor story. Four t-shirts and maybe… you could lend him one?
