STORE CHECK - TODD SNYDER, ROCKEFELLAR CENTER

With over 15 stores in the USA, Todd Snyder is not that rookie anymore who started is career as a designer for brands like J.Crew and Ralph Lauren. In 2011 Todd Snyder started his own brand and with a lot of success. His great taste for style, colors and fabrics combined with wanna have brands, his stores are looking like a candy store for men like me.

During my last trip to New York, I paid a visit to his Rockefellar Center store, and I was blown away with the use of colors each room has a different vibe due through the colors used on the walls. My favorite is the blue room with the big print above the fire place.

Whenever in New York (and why shouldn't you) take a moment to visit Todd.

THE BROOKLYN CIRCUS + CHAMPION FOR TODD SNYDER

                        

                                              

Founder of Brooklyn Circus, Ouigi Theodore focuses on urban apparel, hats, and shoes that sport a vintage feel. His clothing gets respect for its quality, and his attention to detail has found him collaborating with brands like New Era, and now Todd Snyder, and Champion for a collection inspired by boxing, and more specifically, Muhammad Ali.

Borrowing from the feeling that must have stirred the air at Fighter’s Heaven, while Ali trained there in the 1970s, Theodore created this boxing inspired collection that show a vintage sportswear feel, and take elements from Ouigi Theodore’s aesthetic like a 1920 logo that speaks to his grandmother’s birth year in tribute to her.

Todd Snyder did it again, he has a great feeling of making the best collaborations in fashion!

TODD SNYDER X LLBEAN COLLABORATION FW2020

WOW!!

For me this is the best collab of the year! Todd Snyder X LLBean. It's the first time the Freeport, Maine brand does a collaboration with another brand. That makes it unique and one of a kind but it taste like more.

THE LIQUOR STORE "UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT"

My favorite go to in New York was always the Liqour Star by J, Crew, how suprised I was that it is under a new management and just a new one it becomes a Todd Snyder Store.

When Todd Snyder heard that there was a “FOR SALE” sign in the window of J.Crew’s Liquor Store outpost on the corner of West Broadway and White Street in Tribeca, he immediately picked up the phone and called its owner. Snyder worked for J.Crew when the brand first rented the space in 2008, and watched it become a gathering place for menswear enthusiasts from around the world.

“This place is special to me, and to menswear in general,” the fashion designer told the Cut before his store’s opening this week. It was a place for discovery, for like-minded people to gather and geek out over clothes — not to mention an architectural gem. When Snyder eventually decided to leave J.Crew in 2009 and launch his own label, the store’s success had a lot to do with it. “I wanted a chance to have my own crack at it,” he said.

The “FOR SALE” sign seemed to say that his chance had arrived. So he went straight to its owner — a third-generation New Yorker who still lives part-time above the space. He told her his plans to “keep it alive.” He wanted to preserve the integrity of the architecture, but also give the shop a new life. She approved. “For me, it’s always been about paying homage to something that’s original, but then upgrading it,” Snyder said of his aesthetic.
