G-Star Raw Is Creeping Further North into Manhattan

The Muji flagship across the street from the New York Public Library is about to get a new neighbor. Yesterday, we spotted signage for G-Star Raw at 475 Fifth Avenue, right on the corner of 41st Street. The long-vacant space is now filled with the denim label's branding and the words "Coming Soon," meaning we don't know just yet when it'll debut.

A couple blocks north, you'll find shops like Zara, & Other Stories, Cos, and Urban Outfitters; to the south, you have BCBG, Lord & Taylor, and Charming Charlie.

Elsewhere in the city, you can find G-Star Raw stores in Union Square, on Lafayette Street and on Broadway in Soho, and on North 4th Street in Williamsburg.
