Dapper Dan officially made the announcement on his social media accounts, writing "A sign of the times. For the 1st time in history, a major luxury brand store has opened in Harlem:"

It's cool to see Dapper Dan open up a shop in Harlem again. In the late '80s and early '90s, Dan had a shop on 125 street. He was the most famous and influential bootlegger. He famously incorporated high-end logos onto clothes and into car interiors, working with everyone from LL Cool J to Mike Tyson to Bobby Brown.

He eventually closed his shop in 1992 after years of legal pressure from high-end brands like Fendi and Gucci.

Last year, Dapper Dan was put back into the limelight after it was clear that Gucci took a Dapper Dan design for one of its 2017 pieces. Gucci and Dan eventually pieced it up and now here we are.

There's an official Dapper Dan-run Gucci shop in the heart of Harlem.
