This coming weekend Racked 38 Member Mark Shale is hosting it’s second “Mark Shale Market,” a flight of men’s spring trunk shows featuring five American luxury brands. This Saturday, March 10th from 10AM - 5PM at the Michigan Ave location men will have the opportunity to speak with reps from the brands and shop a broader array of clothing and accessories not normally available in store. Lines represented include: Hickey Freeman, Gitman Bros., Robert Talbott, Moore & Giles, and Jack Black.

All based and produced in the US, these brands reflect a similar heritage to Mark Shale which was established in Joliet, IL in 1929. Light appetizers, beverages and a whiskey tasting courtesy of Koval will tickle your tastes. Some vendors will offer gifts with purchase; and giveaway items will be gifted for guests who enter the Mark Shale Market raffle.
