Gant Rugger

Midwestern transplants and bankers in search of new weekend wear will go bananas for this brand’s all-American menswear line. The design of the 700-square-foot West Village space mimics the label’s old New Haven factory in the late 1940s, right down to the cast-iron fixtures and steel benches. On the shopping front, we’re eyeing the handsome blazers with dead-stock buttons ($495), fitted baseball jackets ($395) and preppy plaid button-downs ($115).
