According to the sign in the window, Nau will open soon in the old Sonic Boom store in Fremont. If you haven’t heard of Nau (they have one other local store at Bellevue Square), it’s a Portland-based clothing company that strives to combine trendy/outdoor fashion with social responsibility. Many of its fabrics are made from recycled materials, and 5 percent of its sales are donated to social or environmental organizations (you get to choose one from a list when you make a purchase.) And the fashion is very Seattle cool. Can’t wait!
Adds Nina in comments: “Odd location. Their clothes are pretty expensive so I would imagine they would want to be closer to the downtown shopping. I hope they do OK, but it’s too pricey for me.”

Yeah, I like the socially conscious aspect, but who can afford $55 for a t-shirt, especially with the economy tanking?

I agree that it’s too pricey for me, but it actually will fit right in with the other boutiques I don’t shop at in Fremont.

I just heard that Nau announced they are going out of business, so don’t expect to see Nau in Fremont.
I’m still very sad about Sonic Boom…
