I just recently stopped into The Simple Man's current location on Pacific street to check out the…read morestore for something neat for my boyfriend. I had only been to this location once before and it had been awhile so luckily I live fairly close and was able to make a quick shopping trip before work. It pains me to see small business and restaurants holding on to threads this year and holiday season so I love supporting these small shops as much as possible to do my part to keep them going during this terrible pandemic.
It was a pretty cold morning when I got here but the ambiance is sophisticated and warm right when you step in the door. I love the collection on gentlemen items here, you've got cozy beanies and scarves just as you enter, soft eco-friendly t shirts on the shelves, and really cool nick knacks against the walls. There are carefully selected drinking glasses with Star Wars etched graphics on them, game cards, and a bunch of stuff that just whisper, "this is perfect for a man space." I walked around the small boutique conflicted on what else to give my boyfriend. I had already ordered something online but just in case it sadly comes in late I wanted something to put under the tree now. I picked up a soft shirt that I thought would be nice, but decided to wait until next time to buy that and ended up choosing this TV/movie trivia card game and some lip balm. Something he loves to do and something practical for the chilly weather.
It was a small purchase but I'm happy I stopped by. I could have probably spent another thirty minutes in there just looking at everything displayed there and taking a better look at the clothing they have. I definitely love the scarves, beanies, and shirts here. If you are still searching for the perfect gift for an important gentleman in your life, your dad, cousin, brother, boyfriend, personal trainer, or co-worker, I highly suggest you check out The Simple Man, they have funny cheeky gifts, sophisticated apparel, and just cool items you'd really only find at a shop like this.
