What this article fails to mention is that Aficionados, a small business with a local owner, was FORCED to close so that Under Armour could take the space and add it to their new store. Prime Outlets gave the owner one month to sell his inventory and leave the outlets. He wasn't offered another space to put his business in. I for one will never spend a dime in a store that caused a small business to go out of business. Good luck in the future to the owner of Aficionados, you will be missed.

I think its terrible that a small business, that all the locals loved and kept in business was forced to leave so that another could take over its space. You mean to tell me that another space couldn't of been offered? The outlets really need another sports store, huh? I too will never step foot at this place. Its sad to run someone out to fill their space with a store that will probably go out of business with in a few years, because they went too big too fast and the rent will be too high. Best of luck to Aficionados...you will be sadly missed........

Can they just get in a store people have HEARD of...........these fake boutique brands are too much......I thought it was a meat products store.......or catering to the large knights in shining armor population we have here.

Who has disposable income? Kids and young adults. That's why Nike and Under Armour are opening in the outlets. Popular brands with the under 30 set.
Cigars, wine, and brands that appeal to us oldsters now take a back seat to replenishing our pension funds and paying for gas, health insurance, utilities, etc.
