    Sidewalk Repair Shops On Hang Dong Street In Thanh Hoa
    A sidewalk repair shop operates on Hang Dong Street in Thanh Hoa, Vietnam, on March 23, 2025. Under aging awnings and faded signs that advertise electrical repairs, several men work directly on the pavement, surrounded by tools, spare parts, and small machines. Plastic stools and makeshift workstations define the space, reflecting the resourcefulness and hands-on labor that power much of the city's informal economy. The blend of street-level commerce, worn architecture, and green plants creates a layered and authentic urban scene. (Photo by Michael Nguyen/NurPhoto)

    Lock's - The Hat Shop

    There are exclusive shops in most of the world's great cities , but in few cities are the most exclusive quite like those of London . It would be almost true to say that the more exclusive a London shop , the less impressive it is from outside . Many of them , particularly those around St . James's - '' Club Land '' - in the West End , look more like well - preserved pawn - brokers ' establishments in dock area . One such is Lock's the Hatter's . From the street , the shop looks like a relic , slowly design from lack of custom . There is no bustle , no neon, and certainly there's never a queue ; yet it is to Lock's that the Duke of Windsor , the Duke of Edinburgh , the Duke of Norfolk , Sir Anthony Eden , and most of the names from Debrett come for their headgear .

    Picture shows:- MAN'S CROWNING GLORY .....The brim is curled to the proper shape by the special iron .
