We were the first to storecast that DEKA, a sportswear boutique from Atlanta was opening up on Michigan Ave. This past week the shop has opened to minimal fanfare. Though the boutique sells designer labels like Y-3 and Adidas by Stella McCartney and Splits 59 we feel like it will be a stretch (albeit worthwhile if it's a success) to get Chicago women out of their Lululemon and Athleta.
