A Guide To The Bonobos Guideshop

You're probably familiar with Bonobos' website and catalog and well you should be. Although they are known for great fitting chinos, Bonobos offers a wide variety of clothes for golf to the beach to even black tie affairs. Recently, they've expanded the world of Bonobos and started opening Guideshops throughout the U.S including their newest addition of their flagship Guideshop on 5th Ave, in New York City. I visited their Brookfield Place and the 5th Ave Guideshop locations. They're both great and worth checking out! Here's what to expect and how to get the most out of your first appointment.

Get the lay of the land...
No matter the size of the Guideshop take your time and walk the whole store and soak it all in. In addition to the meticulous details on the clothes you'll also see it in the design and how they curate each Guideshop.

Ask questions...
The Guides are extremely helpful and knowledgeable, they know the products and fits like the back of their hands. They will not steer you wrong.

Step out of the fitting room...
There are no mirrors in the fitting rooms (gasp!) You'll have to come out of the fitting room to see how you look in front of the 3 way mirror. The Guides will be able to better help you determine if that's the best fit, style or color for you.

Leave happy...
Once you figure out what are the best fits the next step is selecting your favorite colors or patterns. Bonobos loves color and patterns, and you'll love their options.

Everything you've chosen is just a click away...
The Guides will place your order and within a couple of days it'll get delivered to you home or office. As simple as that!
