Best Men’s Shop

Master barber Charles Lenox gives close shaves at Haberdash EDC.
Haberdash EDC
Haberdash co-owner Jerry Kamhi once described this River North shop as a “candy store for men”—stroll through and you’ll want to grab one of everything. The store features everyday casual workwear and gear (neighboring shop Haberdash Bespoke focuses on tailored clothing and luxury sportswear), so look for items such as Psovet watches, D.S. Durga apothecary goods and Portland-made Tanner Supply Co. belts. Thanks to the vintage barber chair in the back where guys can get old-school close shaves, you can leave this store literally looking like a new man. 611 N State St (312-646-7870).—Kevin Aeh
