After the Ames and Montgomery Wards had closed and the JC Penny moved to the Morgantown Mall, the Mountaineer mall was repositioned as a "discount mall". This is when Goodwill, Gabriel Brothers(now Gabes) and Walmart were opened. I think I took these around 2002-2004? I'm not sure.
Wow, those shots of Mountaineer Mall really take me back — the atmosphere, the layout, they had something special. It’s crazy how malls and stores evolve, yet certain classics remain timeless. Kind of like how a good piece of outerwear can still look sharp decades later. If you’re into fashion that stands the test of time, check out spots offering men leather jackets durable, stylish, built to last. And if you want something even more personal, there are options for custom leather jackets for men so you get the fit, cut, and details you really want.
