Wondering what to do this weekend? We have an idea for you: plane, train, or automobile it out to The End (a.k.a. Montauk, NY) for a one-of-a-kind shopping experience. That’s right, the first-ever Bonobos pop-up shop is up and running, and we couldn’t be more excited. Located in the “Shack in the Back” behind Cynthia Rowley’s beach shop, our shop is 9 x 9 feet of heaven.
We spent yesterday getting this place in shape. Ninja Sean, Intern Hillary, and yours truly put in a good 8 hours of sweat equity getting this place ready to go. Some supporting players in our efforts were a very smelly rental van, ridiculous Hamptons traffic, white paint, rope, and a few beers. Check out the shots below!
This place exudes Montauk charm. Laid back, rustic, and off the beaten path from other Hamptons havens, the Bonobos pop-up shop is set up for the guy that is determined to make the most out of his summer. This place is an explosion of signature Bonobos color. Shorts, polos, pants, blazers and a full-on swim shop are here waiting for you. What’s more is we have a great event with drinks and bites on Saturday from 6-8, and then live music next door at the Memory Motel at 10. Join us for a great time.

For those of you who don’t know, Bonobos is launching its first ever pop-up shop this weekend! We’re partnering with Cynthia Rowley at her beach shop in Montauk (at 696 Montauk Highway, to be exact) and we couldn’t be more excited; so in celebration, we’re offering some stellar savings! We’ve created a look perfect for summer getaways and weekend pool parties and we’ve named it, yeah you probably guessed it, The Montauk. Creative, we know.
Check it out:
The Montauk consists of some Bonobos summer essentials: the Rojopolo; the Nurples; the Belted Cow Lobster Belt; and a pair of white Generic Surplus Plimsolls to round it all out. If you purchase the entire look, you’ll save $40! The discount is applied automatically at checkout so it couldn’t be easier. Supplies are limited and the discount offer expires on July 16th, so act now if you want to rock The Montauk.
If you’re out east this weekend, stop by our shop. We’re open from Friday, July 9 through Tuesday, July 13. We’re having a little event at the shop on Saturday from 6-8 p.m., so stop by and have a drink and some bites. And catch some great live music next door at the Memory Motel starting at 10 p.m. See you there!

Some things are just better when you put them together - Peanut butter & jelly, Sonny & Cher, David Hasselhoff & music.
Well here’s one more to add to the 2 + 2 = 5 equation…
A classic American shoe brand synonymous with preppy lifestyle teaming up with a designer renowned for his eye towards tradition and authenticity, but with a “push-the-envelope” streak? What you get are shoes with one foot (pun intended) deeply rooted and true to the brand history, but with one squarely in the future.
Such is the case with Mark McNairy (former creative director at J.Press, creator of his own English made shoe brand and now at Woolrich Woolen Mills) and the eponymous Bass Weejuns. If you don’t know the history behind Bass, you should. They “exported” (aka copied) a very popular Norwegian slip-on shoe and brought it State-side in the 30s and The Weejun (after Norwegian) was born. In the 50s, prep-students looking to make a fashion statement took to inserting a penny thus spawning the name penny loafers.
But how do you put a modern spin on a timeless classic? This was tasked to McNairy and the results are outstanding. While only a small part of the full collection, we are proud to offer two of our favorites, the Dean (The navy and burgundy leather combo is out-of-this-world) and Noah loafers, through Bonobos.com. But what’s so special about them?
McNairy brought them back to their heritage – Handmade in Maine with the finest leathers from Horween, these puppies will only get better with age. The real kicker though…Loafer upper + deck sole = extreme versatility. The fine leather looks dressed up, but the white deck sole brings it back to earth. Perfect for weekend lounging or a Summer wedding (the picture below is from the upcoming Bonobos wedding lookbook…), you can’t miss with these shoes.

We’ve always loved seersucker here at Bonobos but it dawned on us we never really told you why. Valetmag.com did a great piece on the pleasantries of seersucker at the beginning of May and we haven’t stopped thinking about it since. The technique used to weave the fabric creates tight, puckered stripes which hold themselves away from the body to help keep you cool on those muggy summer nights we know all too well here in New York City.
I stick to my Southern roots when I’m putting together a seersucker look and try to keep it classic. Seersucker blazer and trousers, gingham pocket square and white oxford (go without a tie to keep it fresh). A pair of white bucks rounds out the look but if you’re going more casual, ditch the jacket, throw on some sneakers and tight roll the pants for an effortless summer getup. Seersucker is as versatile as it is comfortable so you can really make it your own.
This year, we first brought you seersucker pants, then we delivered blazers to match and now we’ve added shorts to the list. We recently decided to one-up ourselves, though, and at this very moment, we’re cutting fabric to launch two new limited edition seersucker suits mid-July. One’s a steely grey and the other’s a new blue and they’re comfy enough for any summer party and classy enough to don at next year’s Seersucker Thursday (we missed it this year but it’s already on our calendars for 2011).
