Well I dont post too much on here mainly because I am from Manitoba. However, my girlfriend and myself are taking a road trip through Alberta at the end of April.

I was hoping some of you could suggest some EMO type clothing stores/vintange clothing stores.

Places that might carry brands such as ESDJCO, X-LARGE, OK-47, Freshjive, FCUK, ect.

Anything else we should visit while we are there?
we will be spending time in Calgary, Banff, and Edmonton.
thanks

Chinook Mall has everything you want, but just curious why would you drive all the way out to Calgary to go shopping???

Probably because none of those brands are available where he lives. Why not shop in Alberta and save the PST if they're going to be here on a short holiday here?

Aside from the usual well-known tourist destinations, go to the Reynolds-Alberta Museum in Wetaskiwin which is near Edmonton.

^^ You can get better stuff by ordering it from the UK :D ..

FCUK - ***Holt*** , Pusch , Underground (I think) ... But Underground is the stupidest rip off in the world. I saw the same jeans they have listed for $330 for $40 American in L.A.

This is a great city, but you might find students at U of C don't have much good to say about the University
