Capsule Show vs. Project New York RECAP

I got to say, I'm not mad at the Capsule location, it was in the Angel Orensanz Center, which is originally a synagogue. My only concern was that it was TYPE HOT in there, even with the portable AC's and fans all over the 4 levels of today's mens designers. However, it was a better look than Project New York, which I stopped by for 30 mins. Capsule NY was full of trendy, cool people and some hipsters, might I add, all in all I see potential in the show with the brands. I've got to meet a couple of dope people, and in the coming days you guys will see some dope sneakers, clothes and accessories. For now, check out the layout of the spot. 

Upon entry to Capsule, you were given a little booklet with Brand contacts and if you were lucky, also a limited edition Gabriel Urist "Capsule Pill" Necklace, which is a pretty cool alternative to the bags usually given out at Project, this year was a big tote bag with a fold-out map. What happen to the cool RTR Project bags along with Guide Books?
