Bodega

Bodega started in Boston in 2006, set up by Jay Gordon, Dan N. and Oliver Mak, a trio who'd come up through the city's DJing, nightlife and street art scenes rather than the fashion trade. That background shows in the shop: it reads less like a straightforward retailer and more like a gallery built around a genuine love of street culture, art and design.

The edit mixes established names with independent labels, and Bodega has built a reputation for collaborative releases and editorial storytelling around what it stocks. Expect sharp streetwear alongside more considered, minimalist pieces and designer heavyweights, taking in ACRONYM®, Comme des Garçons Homme Plus, Alpha Industries, CHIMI, Pas de Mer and Jungles, among others. It's a spot for people who want their wardrobe to say something about where fashion, art and counterculture meet.
