Local Holiday Shopping: Athletic Shoe Factory [Q&A]
|
For this new installment of our holiday shopping series, we spoke on Thursday afternoon to Athletic Shoe Factory owner Alana Fleisch at the store, located at 3 Forest St. Here’s our interview. ***
New Canaanite: How is it going so far this holiday shopping season? Alana Fleisch: It’s a little slower of a start than it has been in previous years, but we’re hoping—because Christmas is falling different than last year—that customers are going to come in and start shopping a lot over this weekend, beginning of next week.
The people who are coming in, what kind of things are they interested in?
Thankfully, we try to cater to just about everybody with gifts. So we cover all ages and genders.
