Craig Cooper at Pops for Champagne

When we were looking for men for our Spring lookbook, No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service, we were looking for a certain level of culinary prowess or behind-the-bar accumen. We only had to go a few steps to find our latest subject, Craig Cooper, the Partner/Beverage Director at the widely acclaimed Chicago staple, Pops for Champagne. “[Haberdash] is next door, five steps out to the right,” says Craig Cooper. “We’re in the same building, and everyone here is pretty close… we’re neighbors and friends.” READ MORE

Baldwin’s Henley in California Wash

Fact: You’re going to need a pair of jeans with a light wash for summer. Nothing looks better with tan feet, and those raw denims won’t breathe well when the mercury rises. When it comes to washed jeans, you’re either buying vintage, or a new pair that looks like this. Let me save you the trouble: vintage is smelly. Meet my favorite pair of light jeans in the world, the Baldwin Henley in their California wash. READ MORE

Chef Martial Noguier of Bistronomic

“All the time I want to change the menu, and I try to change the menu,” says Chef Martial Noguier, “But people get upset, because people come here often to have the same dish.” It’s true: the Gold Coast gem known as Bistronomic is that perfect blend of neighborhood familiarity and delicious quality that inspires diners to pick their favorites again and again, thanks to Noguier’s ability to meld classic French techniques and locally sourced ingredients. “They come for the mussels, they come for the tuna tartare, they come for the short ribs, they come for the whitefish, for the dessert, for the creme brûlée, the country pate, the chicken liver pate…”

No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service Style Guide

This idea was born out of our love of fashion and food; style and substance; all, easily and highly interchangeable. All of us at Haberdash resolutely believe that it’s a great time for menswear as well as a great time for food, especially in Chicago. Our astonishing group of highly regarded chefs, mixologists and restaurateurs share in our belief. So much, that they enthusiastically agreed to be photographed in their own culinary environment outfitted in Haberdash style, and even shared personal recipes. Yes, we truly appreciate what they do…they tantalize our sophisticated taste buds, quench our thirst for the exotic, and strive to meet our every whim.

Meet Jason Mason

If you’ve ever met Jason Mason, one of our sales associates at Haberdash, you’ve witnessed first-hand what makes him so easy to work with—his one-of-a-kind demeanor and laid-back, classic style make him a perfect example of the Haberdash man. The Chicago native went to school for small business management, says that every man should own a navy blazer, and no matter what bucks he might be wearing today, will always be a sneaker dude at heart.

April Dose Market: The Recap

Substance of Style: The Mackintosh

Read up on the Mackintosh (or “mac,” for short), and you’ll come across plenty of praise. It’s a coat with heritage. It’s traditional, even nostalgic, yet somehow ever-contemporary. The coat is marked by its simplicity and its timeless design. And while all of these words do pique our interest, there’s only one that comes to mind when we’re faced with sheets of icy rain on a cold day in Chicago: Waterproof. READ MORE

No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service

You might have seen some mentions of a photo shoot on our Twitter feed last week, or perhaps you saw yesterday’s article on Eater, Haberdash Taps Chicago’s Fashionable Chefs, Restaurateurs for New Look Book.

You might have seen a photo we posted a few weeks back on our Instagram (are you following us yet?), featuring our very own Adam Beltzman getting in some roof-time with a photographer from CS.

Phil’s Spring Music Picks

If you have not heard of this band, fear not. Not only will come to know who they are, you’re probably already familiar with the band’s members. Rocket Juice & The Moon is yet another project headed by everyone’s most diverse frontman, Blur’s Damon Albarn, joined by former Fela Kuti drummer for Tony Allen, and the bassist Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. It’s a 62-minute journey into a West African psychedelic-funk adventure. Most of the album is primarily instrumental, but there are a few tracks that have vocals from the likes of Erykah Badu, M.anifest, M3nsa, Fatoumata Diawara, and, of course, Damon Albarn himself.
