San Francisco: Japantown. UPPABaby Vista:

With plastic baby carrier. I’m not sure what the demographics actually are, but San Francisco seems to abound with UPPABabys pushed by guys in low, baggy pants as opposed to the more typical suburban-appearing moms.
I’m not sure that those guys would have been pushing any baby stroller five years ago, much less a higher-end designer-type. Is it revolutionary? Is it social commentary (like rappers adopting Gucci and Chanel to turn the luxury establishment on its head)? Is it an appreciation of a good ride?
Maybe somebody just had a fire sale in an unexpected neighborhood. I love it; I’m all for good strollers for everybody. A decent buggy means more and happier walkies for everyone, baby included.
(You can see — barely — that a mom was, in fact, pushing this particular Vista at the time I snapped this shot, but the guys had been walking it earlier; my observation still stands.)
