WHILE THE FOURSOME FINE APPAREL AND SHOES is well known as a local go-to spot for fine menswear, the store hasn’t always focused exclusively on men’s clothing. “We actually used to carry women’s clothing,” says Nicole Chose, an owner and marketing director at The Foursome. “There was a time that we were The Foursome Family Clothing and Shoes.”
Now, The Foursome is expanding its scope to include womenswear alongside menswear with a new athleisure and outdoor activewear store, Boundary Clothing. The idea, Chose says, was born out of the pandemic and how it has affected the community’s sense of style.
The increasingly popular work-from-home model amplified the opportunity to introduce a more casual style into people’s workweek looks. The pandemic has also moved some people to forego the gym or workout clubs in favor of outdoor activities, including biking, camping, hiking and walking.
“It’s been really fun how excited people, especially the women, are about the brands that we have over here (prAna, Toad and Company, Vuori and Mountain Hardwear, to name a few),” Chose says. “So many people come in, and they know these brands, and they’re so excited to find them here ...”
TAKE BOUNDARY CLOTHING OUT ON THE TOWN
Activewear should never be short on versatility. A casual look can carry throughout the day, depending on how it’s styled. Chose culled outfits that dovetail with a couple’s busy day out and about.
