Shopping in Chicago

[FCS]

Planning to go there tomorrow for a few days. Did anyone see any good deals for shoes and clothing accessories? More generally, where are the better places to find deals?

I live in chicago. my best clothing deals are on STF, SF B&S, ebay, ehaberdasher, VCH, etc.

but while you are in Chicago, you should stop by Morris and Sons at 557 W Polk, but not if you wear smaller than a size 40 suit. also just walking around michigan avenue this time of year you'll probably find all sorts of deals. prada, hermes, jil sanders, gucci, etc all have boutiques at the north end of michigan avenue or just off of it to the west (towards rush street). brooks brothers, ralph lauren, zegna, ferragamo, burberry, bloomingdales, saks and neiman marcus are all on michigan avenue within easy walking distance of each other. skip water tower place.

best to start at the far north side of michigan avenue (i.e. around 900 north or slightly north) or on the far south side (maybe 400 or so but definitely not over the river) and just walk the whole thing, especially if it's your first time there, you haven't been in a while or don't go often.

Thanks for the info, guys. Just walked around the Loop tonight, missed Syd Jerome unfortunately. Will check other stores tomorrow.

I just went to the Barneys Las Vegas today, and seeing as how the Chicago store trumps this location by a hell of a lot, there are probably many deals to be had there (33% off most sale).

sorry to bump an old thread for a mediocre question... but I saw that there are two H&Ms in the chicago area that arent too far apart. I was curious which one usually has a better stock with regards to mens clothing?

The one on Michigan Ave definitely has a better selection. The other one you are talking about is on State St. right?
