STAG
Going stag has always had a bit of a cool factor to it, but now going STAG might
just keep guys from, well, never going stag again. The Austin-based, independent
men’s apparel and lifestyle store opened up a Houston outpost next door to Sloan
Hall at the corner of Westheimer and Kirby last month. With stores in Dallas and
Venice, CA, as well, the precisely edited shop features apparel, accessories, grooming essentials, unique gifts and one-of-a-kind vintage finds. The men’s store is the only
one to be featured in the top ten lists of both GQ and Esquire. It seems fitting that
the store’s signature rugged yet refined style will be sold out of the old Buffalo
Hardware location. Staples like Ralph Lauren RRL, local company Hamilton Shirt
Co., Red Wing, Filson, Gitman Bros., Mascot and more will hang stag atop the
hardware store’s restored original terrazzo floors from the 1940s. They also kept the
original storefront. Going solo never looked so good.
