I live in northern San Diego County, but I could roll a bit if necessary. We we have used a House of Flava here but it closed. Where can I get clothes Hip-Hop/Urban? Thank you.
The closest you I know is "The Armory" in Pacific Beach. If you drive all the way to Chula Vista, there are 2 very large shops that specialize in Hip Hop Urban Clothing.
