Brown’s Army & Navy

Got my Carthartt jacket there for only $ 79.99 ;staff is super friendly & knowledgeable and the best is it’s conveniently located off the Broadway stop on the N or Q Train.

They don’t have tons of army/​navy items, and it feels a bit more like a regular retail clothing store with some military items, but prices are great and the staff is very nice.

Nice store to buy clothes and sneakers. I got some nice ones here Nice clothes with sports wear for men and teenagers.

I was just looking for Army t-​shirts. They did not have the ones I needed in the sizes I needed them but they ordered them and I picked them up later.

I just got a great peacoat there today for $ 169.99

Adorable little store for outdoor gear, shoes, and handy tools, and the guy behind the counter was very patient and helpful. Because it’s pretty small though, you shouldn’t expect a huge selection, but a great addition to the neighborhood. I would definitely come here again!

Sitting in Starbucks researching where to find a stylin’, green, army looking coat. Didn’t even realize that across the street right in my line of vision was the answer!
Went in just to look. Walked out with the jacket i have been searching for for over a month, plus several other items that were surprisingly less expensive than even Marshalls or Target.
The jacket was PERFECT, and was only $ 69. I looked in SoHo for a full day and all they had were stupid ones with fur on them (people still wear that), for over $ 200! Besides stumbling on EXACTLY what i wanted, the staff was great, the atmosphere was relaxed and it was easy to find stuff. And you can’t beat the prices.
Recommend this place to any man who wants to be in and out, for some essential gear, without having to travel too far. Oh, and only go IF you like the CHEAPEST prices! Five stars!

Friendly staff and rugged, everyday trail goods. Love this place! Get your G.I. Jane ON!

I went to store to see their selection of walking shoes. The store seemed small but in the back was a full shoe area where I could select and pick from several brands. As I take a men’s small size 7, I was surprised they had the shoes size in stock.
overall the experieince was very courteous and professional. The sales person was knowledgeable on the shoes it carried, skechers, New Balance, etc.

This store has a lot of great stuff at reasonable prices… conveniently located and the guys who work there are helpful when they are not busy drooling over the female customers.

I needed a pair of black jeans fast and they had them. $ 35 for Levi’s 505s. Didn’t have to drive out on the Island to a mall (no, I don’t do the Queens Mall, thank you.) I think I once bought sneakers there some years back and was pleasantly surprised then too. Small store but they pack as much in as they can and the guys who work there are helpful. Good local merchant.

With a race the next day, and brutally cold weather abounding, I went out in search of some sort of running pants that were not cumbersome, but would keep me warm. I instinctively checked out the sporting good stores, but ran into obscene prices for something I was only going to use once or twice (I much prefer running in shorts, even when it’s cold. That said, 8 degree wind chill is dangerously cold…).
When I accepted the fact that I wasn’t going to drop $ 80 on running pants, I thought to myself, «what about a pair of long johns to wear under my shorts?». Perfect! Easy to find right? WRONG. As is typical of retail, you MUST purchase a season’s worth of clothing two seasons before said season, or brave the freezing cold just to find rows upon rows of swimsuits in your local clothing stores.
Then it hit me. Army Navy stores carry everything you’d need to survive! So in I went, was nicely greeted by the sales staff inside, instantly found my $ 9 pair of long johns and was out within 3 minutes. NICE.
The long johns were perfect in the race! In fact, I was almost too warm at one point! So glad I didn’t drop $ 80!
