While Kill Devil Hill evokes the feel of an old-timey general store, it couldn't be more of modern day specialty shop. With the bulk of the stocklist shipped from a connection in Montana—an aging mountain man with a penchant for animal bones, 19th-century trading beads, and handmade Native American crafts, owners "Cowboy Mark" Straiton and Mary Brockman have filled in the rest with their own expertise—Industrial American-era home, gift, and clothing collectibles circa 1870-1962..."
Not only does Refinery 29 has some most excellent things to say about the new shop, they provided a lovely photo of the ahem...Cyberoptix ties also finally having a great home in New York!
As penned by Miss Lis Hsu - "admit it. you've been wondering where cowboy mark disappeared to. he's been setting up a store in greenpoint, brooklyn. it's called
KILL DEVIL HILL (i dunno, ask him what it means yourself!) and since he has not yet finished his time machine, he decided the next best thing is to gather stuff that's really old from all over. and it's not just your average "vintage" or "antique" items. he's going WAY back in time... u know, manifest destiny, frontier life,
carpetbaggers, turn of the century, model T, bonnie & clyde, world wars, FDR.
serving as a general store for all your old timey needs, you will be able to buy SKULLS, taxidermy, vintage workwear, military uniforms, western wear, arrows, jars, pots, pans, wax, trade beads from the 1800's, antler art, a jar full of teeth... thousand year old (not an exaggeration) buffalo teeth... and lots of other things that might be obsolete or definitely not alive anymore.
and if they don't got it? they will get it for you!

AWESOME! WOOOOP!
Have you ever realized that when you buy readymade suits you get a choice of only a few colors & styles, also finding the perfect fit are quite difficult? Wouldn’t it be better to choose from over 2000 different British & Italian fabrics and get a tailor made suit at a similar price that you pay for readymade suits?
We are a company based in Hong Kong and have been providing custom made suits & shirts since 1997. With representatives in major cities around the globe we can arrange to show you the fabric samples and take your measurements, or you can also place your orders online with the help of our measuring guide. There are over 2000 fabrics to choose from along with all the latest styles.
All our suits and shirts are produced by highly skilled Shanghainese tailors in Hong Kong and delivered in about 4 weeks, express delivery can be made in 2 weeks at a minor extra cost.
