Like these stores, we're always online.BackcountryBackcountry is a leader in outdoor gear tough enough for any terrain, stocking just about every adventure brand from Arc'Teryx all the way over to The North Face. You'll find plenty of waterproof Gore-Tex outerwear and all the gorp you can handle, of course, but also a healthy selection of casual everyday clothes like sweaters and sneakers.BackcountryBaggies 5-InchBlue In GreenWhether or not you’ve yet been awed into stunned silence by the ceiling-high racks of selvedge denim at Blue in Green’s SoHo space, the retailer remains the critical first stop for followers of Japan’s “Osaka 5” denim families—Fullcount, Warehouse, etc.—as well as devotees of newer leading lights like Beams, Kapital, and Porter-Yoshida & Co.Blue in GreenVelveteen Souvenir JacketFullcount0105W Wide Straight JeanDepartamentoAt the back of a Japanese cafe and through a mirrored hallway lit by neon lights, you'll find one of Los Angeles' coolest stores: Departamento. And if you can't pay a visit to their physical location, their digital storefront is just as special. On top of the in-your-face user experience, Departamento stocks a cavalcade of emerging designers, as well as established runway royalty, all mixed together in a gritty cauldron that feels like nowhere else on the shopping internet.DPTOLot 720 Damaged Indigo Denim JacketDPTOPatent Leather Brogue Toe Cap Derby ShoeStaff Pick: The Armoury"You could spend a lifetime crisscrossing the globe in search of the perfect striped dress shirt—and the right paisley tie to wear with it. Or you could boot up your computer and head straight to The Armoury’s site, where the Hong Kong-based haberdasher has assembled a global roster of elite makers rarely found in one place: shirts from England, ties from Italy, and an in-house tailoring line produced in conjunction with Osaka’s Ring Jacket. For anybody steeped in the lore of the Menswear Cinematic Universe, these are our Avengers." —Avidan Grossman, senior commerce editorDover Street MarketUnder the direction of the legendary Japanese designer Rei Kawakubo, Dover Street Market houses a menagerie of high-end designers and innovative young labels, as well as the full roster of Kawakubo’s own Comme Des Garçons universe.Dover Street MarketLong Sleeve HenleyDover Street MarketRipstop Work JacketHavenHaven is home to a singular mix of niche Japanese designers, military-influenced emerging labels, and increasingly its own moody, utilitarian, beautifully-fabricated in-house line.

The iconic American retailer first started slinging its preppy aesthetic via paper catalogs in the late 1980s before eventually expanding to hundreds of brick-and-mortars around the country, thanks to a well-tuned formula of quality, design, and price point. Today, you'll find its stores—both virtual and retail—loaded with killer staples like cashmere sweaters, button-up shirts, trim suits, and more.J.CrewBroken-in Straight ChinoJ.CrewBaird McNutt Irish LinenStaff Pick: C'H'C'M“A number of elite menswear spaces have opened in New York City in recent years, but C’H’C’M—currently celebrating its 17th anniversary, and still operated under owner Sweetu Patel’s uncanny, watchful eye—remains unparalleled for surfacing interesting new designers, even when it could just rest on its laurels. It’s where I first encountered Evan Kinori, Taiga Takahashi, and Margaret Howell, and the online experience is just as spare and unhurried as the in-store vibe.” —Louis Cheslaw, contributing commerce editorLost & FoundLost & Found is a bastion for modern Americana with an offbeat twist. In person, you'll find skater kids, boots guys, and fashion-savvy architects all browsing its friendly aisles. And while we can’t speak to the online clientele with as much certainty, digital shoppers the world over come to the site as much for its ever-interesting New Arrivals, but also for the frankly hilarious product copy.SunflowerWide Twist Natural Vintage JeansLost & FoundPhigvel LS Work ShirtMohawk General StoreAfter nearly two decades of steady growth, during which it’s become known as of Los Angeles’ greatest retail experiences, Mohawk General Store recently doubled-down on its menswear offering, significantly expanding the size of its Sunset Boulevard store. This is a boon for online shoppers too—more product being ordered means more hitting the virtual shelves. And what products they are: From Comoli to Studio Nicholson and Tekla, and excellent in-house line Smock, Mohawk General Store really could function—as its name suggests—as a one-stop shop for folks looking to continually create the ultimate modern man’s wardrobe.Mohawk General StoreSprintersMohawk General StoreCarry On JacketMytheresaWe’ll admit it—we were late to Mytheresa’s game. But the retailer today is an undeniable presence in luxury menswear, stocking the latest and greatest from the likes of Miu Miu, The Row, Prada, and just about every other name you typically see on the backs of magazines and billboards of historic malls. For the runway researcher, there may be no better place.CharvetCotton Poplin ShirtMr PorterMr Porter is a haven for high-end and designer menswear from the likes of Stone Island, Loewe, Dries van Noten, and more. Unlike other luxury e-commerce sites, Mr Porter's brand list includes a deep range of classic menswear tailoring in addition to of-the-moment streetwear.Mr PorterAlpaca Blend SweaterMr PorterScout Leather Boat ShoeNeighbourVancouver’s Neighbour hawks an eclectic set of brands that range from the wild and daring to the elegantly minimal, all seamlessly focused into a tight aesthetic. “I look at Neighbour pretty much every day,” Gerald Ortiz says. “The subdued color palette and discerning brand mix is unmatched.”NeighbourNo 216 Suri Alpaca Hooded Zipper JacketNeighbourA Woolen Wonder ForestStaff Pick: Self Edge“For anyone who’s selvedge-curious, the place to get your Japanese denim fix is Self Edge. The ultra-niche boutique is packed with enough raw denim to open your third eye and turn all three of them a deep shade of indigo. But Self Edge is also a place to grab serious leather jackets, beefy seamless T-shirts, and wild artisanal jewelry from labels you can’t get anywhere else—well, except Japan. With outposts in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, Austin, Portland, and Mexico City, Self Edge’s little empire has steadily grown a cult following, ushering in legions of denim obsessives around the world.” —Gerald Ortiz, style commerce writerNikeYou may know Nike best for its running shoes and basketball gear, but the Portland giant has ballooned into a full-on fashion brand. The Swoosh now peddles a packed slate of streetwear, loungewear, and rough-and-tumble outdoor gear in addition to their top-notch activewear.NikeUnlimited Dri-FIT Unlined ShortsNordstromOne of the most iconic department stores in the country, Nordstrom is a true one-stop shop. If you need a blazer for a job interview, a restock of your favorite scent, running shoes for your next marathon, or a flashy designer belt for the club, Nordstrom has it all.Tom FordTobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum, 1.7ozNordstromThird Cut Jeans, Rocker Storm WashRalph Lauren“All this Polo on, I got horsepower.” 2 Chainz said it, GQ Recommends endorses it. That’s because no matter the decade, stepping out in some Ralph injects a shot of confidence into an otherwise quieter fit. And thanks to Ralph Lauren’s robust online universe, this feeling can be accessed whether or not you live near one of the retailer’s kitted-out townhouses. For our money, everyone should start with at least a pair of Polo chinos—but for those ready to push the boat out, Ralph is also the king of the preppy, gold-buttoned blazer.Ralph LaurenThe Big ChinoRalph LaurenThe RL67 Linen-Blend Herringbone JacketStaff Pick: No Man Walks Alone"I first found No Man Walks Alone because they were one of like five stores in the US that carried my favorite brand, ts(s). (That number is down to three, which is dumb. Anyways.) But in the same way that you might go to a festival for one artist and come away liking eight more, pretty much every time I click into a brand page—“Makers” in No Man parlance—I’m sold, and they remain the place to find brands you pretty much can’t find anywhere else in the country."—Reed Nelson, contributing writerREIFor outdoor gear, REI stands at the top of the mountain. Whether you're looking for a fresh new pair of skis, some UV-protecting cargo pants, or storm-proof shell jackets, it’s simply the best place to get kitted out. That said, with the continued popularity (and practicality) of gorpcore, you don't have to be an outdoors enthusiast to get in on the stylish clothes they have in store.Arc'teryxAtom Insulated HoodieStandard & StrangeLooking for esoteric workwear garments, high-end Japanese jeans, and tough boots? Oakland-based retailer Standard & Strange (with also a locale in New York) is a mecca for hardcore denimheads and boot lovers.John LofgrenWabash Engineer BootsOrSlow107 Ivy Fit Denim, Two-Year WashZapposShoes, shoes, and more shoes. Chances are, the shoes you’re looking for are at Zappos. From Blundstone to Converse to Crocs, Zappos has all the classic footwear brands you know and love—and, surprisingly, plenty of clothes, too.Staff Pick: Très Bien“Sweden’s Très Bien has always felt like the platonic ideal of the cool neighborhood boutique. The Malmö-based shop was one of the first to truly master the high-low mix and bring it to e-comm: hyper-tasteful streetwear and hard-to-find designer fashion, all just absurdly well curated. I’d wager every well-dressed person you know has them bookmarked. And if you’re the type who likes to keep tabs on the comings and goings, their “coming soon” section is low-key a real treat.” —Michael Nolledo, associate commerce directorGerald Ortiz is a style commerce writer for GQ covering fashion, grooming, and occasionally lifestyle.
