Have you checked out BONOBOS yet? I’ve heard about them, but I’ve never had the
opportunity to check out an actual storefront before.
Last weekend I was in San Diego and I saw a BONOBOS
store at the Westfield University Towne Center in La Jolla. I had to go in and
check it out.
They do things a little bit different. If you want to go in and buy something and
take it home that day, this isn’t the store for you. You’ll have to wait a few days, let me
explain. They offer a ton of clothing in
several different fits and fabrics.
Essentially, you go in and try stuff on to determine your fit and choose
your fabric, then in about 2 days your order shows up on your doorstep.
I ordered three ‘Daily Grind’ shirts with wide spread
collars and no pockets, and also a pair of dark navy 'Bedford’ pants. Everything arrived today and the shirts are a
perfect fit. The pants were a little
small, so I’ll have to send them back to swap sizes.
Let me get back to the in-store experience though. The store was impeccable, the displays were
beautiful and the staff was as genuinely friendly and helpful as you could ever
want. They even offered beer!
I had a great experience, bought some terrific new
clothes and learned a lot more about BONOBOS than I knew when I walked in. If you’re fortunate enough to have a store
near you, I would highly recommend stopping in to have a look for yourself. If not, jump over to BONOBOS and have a look there.
This inspired me to show you a few lay-flat outfit ideas for
your fall inspiration. I hope you enjoy
the two casual looks I put together.
