Once again, it's time to update the Racked 38, our list of Philadelphia's most essential stores. It's impossible to sum up the city's shopping scene, but this is our rough guide—a round-up of the places worth browsing, whether you're a tourist or a Philadelphia lifer. Since the Philly retail scene is ever-changing, today we're revisiting the list and adding I. Goldberg Army & Navy. Antiquarian's Delight is out, as the store is reportedly closing. Our list is in no particular order.
