Manwear!

Yes, we have expanded our men's department. Here are several examples of the new men's clothing in sizes S-XXL and accessories modeled by shop manager, STORM and my hunky husband, Alex Alfaro. Photos by Eartha Goodwin.

This Medium Reality shirt and tie are billed by the brand as "sustainable as hell". Their upcycled clothing gives a man a distinguished, one-of-a-kind, West Coast flavor while still suitable for the office. Alex shows the men's embellished sport coat on Divisadero St.

Not so subtle, but also very distinguished is our amazing co-op artists, DAS work: waist coat -ready for the best dressed dandy.  We also carry boutonnieres by Eileen as seen on Alex here.

STORM is wearing a Wayward Shiftys vest and shirt. This line is made by our very creative new co-op artist, Tiff.

STORM also wears a Gibbous shirt below- photo by Bleu Loo. This, like most of their amazing work is full of details and becomes its own wearable piece of art. We have an expanded collection of Gibbous gear for men, including vests, shirts, hats, pants and ties. Meet the Gibbous designers at our upcoming art opening and Gibbous Fashion Show.
Come in and browse our T shirts, hoodies, Top Hats, and more by other menswear artists, like new co-op artist, Phoenix's label, Pixiebird, or Novy, Animal Instincts, Callibug, and Donna Lee. See you soon at Swankety Swank! -Yabette

Buy Nothing Day 2009

"There’s only one way to avoid the collapse of this human experiment of ours on Planet Earth: we have to consume less." -Adbusters Magazine

In honor of Buy Nothing Day, North America, we'll be closed Friday, November 27th, 2009.

When you do buy, we offer a healthy planet alternative: all local, handmade, indie produced conscious consumer commodities- but NOT on the 27th. We'll be off the grid and in the woods enjoying friends and family.

Peace on Earth and Goodwill to all people.
-Yabette
