TOTOWA After 54 years of operating an Army Navy store for Main Street in Paterson wedged from your floor covering store and a home furniture shop, a local father youngster team are packing that in.
Totowa Councilman John Waryas Jr., with the exceptional father John Waryas Sr., who put on matching grey sweatshirts as well as blue jeans during an interview during Main Army Navy last month, once had a shop full of boot footwear, pants, shirts and many method of Army and Navy tools, but now, after selling off of the remaining merchandise, the shop can be a hollowed out husk just a shadow of the enterprise it once was.
"This had been all Belstaff Roadmaster back here leather coats and shoes and up the front were your pants, sweatshirts, socks, thermal underwear, frequent underwear, gloves, hats," said Waryas Jr., 56, motioning to be able to empty shelves at the store. Jimmy's around 1948 and took ownership with the store in 1959.
The shop had previously been at two locations, one on Uppr Main Street and one in Broadway before they moving to the place at 343 Main St., plus expanding in 1977.
"We're going out on good terms, on a high note after a successful time," said Waryas Sr. He also said that they are tired of working the extended stays and are leaving while they are continue to in good health.
The father and child have seen the fashion trends while in the Army Navy surplus organization change over time.
"Back in the delayed 50s Army Navy shops, of which there were seven at one time in Paterson, used to sell mainly used military surplus typically from World War II, but when you got to the 60s it evolved into an in place to go purchasing. Bellbottom dungarees, that was the start of trendy vogue items, Army boots, discipline jackets and then denim actually became big," Waryas Junior. said.
They carried cotton shirts, sweatshirts, T shirts and they also always catered to the working individual, who wore every day attire, Waryas Jr. said. Dickies and Carhartt ended up some of the more popular brands, he stated.
And in addition to providing solutions, the store provided a service.
"My daddy used to fix pants instantly, no charge in about two min's," the son reported. The elder added that they would make the free fix even if your pants came from another shop.
Over the years, the store developed commercial accounts, with towns and faculty systems, and even helped to revive some Boy Scout defense force by supplying them with military style clothes at a time when Son Scout uniforms were unpopular, Waryas Junior. said.
But there were a number of tough times as Waryas Sr. recalls boarding up the store every night throughout riots in the 60s.
"When I was younger, back in the 60s, there were battle riots in Paterson, and my father was required to board up the store nightly with plywood," Waryas Junior. said.
His father added, "And a couple of times I stayed here overnight."
Waryas Jr. states that the neighborhood never saw complications with crime because of the stabilizing aspects created by government buildings in your neighborhood and a guarded jail outside.
"The one thing about this neighborhood is definitely its never changed in the years we've been here as you have the courthouse, you have Street. John's Cathedral, you have the Passaic County Jail, and you've the Board of Societal Services building," Waryas Jr .. said.
So the business became through the years surviving while others available faded away. "We became the solely Army Navy Store still left," Waryas Jr. said. "A large amount of others closed up. People retired. Some, unfortunately passed away, but no one took over his or her stores."
