SOHO—As of 5:45pm, there's almost no line to shop +J at Uniqlo. A tiny queue inside the store leads into the +J section, but the wait time is under a minute. And while the racks look a bit ravaged, almost everything's still there, other than the camel selection and the navy buckle coat. (Tiny people, take heart: They've still got tons of extra-smalls.) The store is restocking at 8am tomorrow, but if you're not looking for any of the sold-out items, you might want to drop by ASAP—this kind of tranquility won't last forever. [RackedWire]

NOLITA—The newish Rag & Bone store on Houston and Elizabeth keeps getting tagged, so the brand has decided to take matters into their own hands with a graffiti contest. To enter, come up with your own design for the 10' by 15' space and email a sketch to houstonproject@rag-bone.com. Through October 31, users will be able to vote on their favorite design on the Rag & Bone Facebook page. After that, the winner gets until November 15 to complete the project with supplies provided by Rag & Bone. Other perks of winning besides Houston Street glory: $1000 to be spent at any Rag & Bone store, plus promotion across all the brand's various social networks. [RackedWire]
