Not quite over the cancellation of HBO’s Deadwood?
Get your weekly fix of all things rustic at the unique men’s store, Freemans Sporting Club. Owners Taavo Somer and William Tigerrt, have filled the store with Somer’s collection of suit’s made from vintage deadstock wool, an assortment of moccasins and boots, and even a saloon-style barbershop in the back co-owned by Sam Buffa, an extremely amiable gentleman who might as well have come with the “time machine”.
The barbershop not only offers what Buffa describes as “the perfect blend of a salon and barbershop haircut” (aka, more reasonable prices for great cuts), it offers shaves and a collection of great products by Dr. Harris and Co., imported from London.
Not looking to give grooming products for the holidays? Well, there’s always the more creative gift- utilitarian artifacts and tools from the eighteenth century. Jewelry not being something the men of the store wear or “understand”, as Buffa explained, they thought it more appropriate to fill the store with something they took interest in.
And no one can deny that this store is interesting.
