The Kulture
4501 Baltimore
Looking to find those one-of-a-kind Nikes? Maybe some Air Forces that you (and the rest of Penn's campus) won't see in Urban next month? If you've searched the city for that special pair with no luck, we've found the perfect place for you. Ubiq beware, The Kulture is on its way.
Nestled within the African district of West Philadelphia, a rather inconspicuous Baltimore Ave. store front reads, "The Kulture - Where Fashion, Music and Art LIVE." The Kulture is just that, a true haven for shoe (and culture) junkies.
The display window alone would entice anyone to consider making a purchase, even if you assure yourself that you're "just looking." Neon green or purple Dunks and multicolored Air Forces are difficult to resist. The Kulture may be dangerous for those who are prone to impulse buys. Its sneaker inventory is stocked with a myriad of styles in a plethora of colors, from traditional Air Force One's to retro Air Max 95 animal skin editions. And if you're really looking to shell out the big bucks, look into their hand-painted, truly unique pieces that you can be sure you won't see anywhere else. But with even the priciest kicks The Kulture is sure to beat the prices of any competitor.
The store also features trendy threads as well as frequent performances by live bands and DJs, ensuring a shopping experience you won't find anywhere around campus.
