Doug Cureton loves consignment shopping but noticed there weren’t any stores exclusively for male clients in Wilton Manors. Realizing the need and the potential draw, he went to work setting up South Florida’s only upscale men’s consignment store.
Located in the heart of Wilton Manors on the drive, Some Men Like it Haute sells men’s fashion and accessories of the best and finest quality. The items are not to be mistaken with those found in your average thrift store. The only way designers like Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren make it onto store racks is through their most premier labels — the only kind of items for sale.
The store only accepts apparel and accessories that are like-new so customers receive the best product for their buck. Doug has also developed a nifty bargain system that helps customers save even more dollars. All items in-store for 30 days gets a red dot indicating a 25% reduction off the regular consignment price. Items in the store for 90 days get marked down for an additional 25% off (indicated by a green dot). A green dot means a discount of 50% off the consignment price. It’s a great way to save but it can be risky because the store doesn’t lay away items for purchase, so your perfect find could be snatched up before your eyes.
Consignment allows both the buyer and seller to save money. Buyers save while they spend and the store makes a return on their investment from the sale of their merchandise. If you have any items that you would like to reinvest, you can bring them into to be evaluated during siesta hours, Tuesday – Thursday, 11:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. & 5:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m.
Doug also sells Talk to the Fans at his store. They are accordion fans with quirky sayings on them. Check them out video.
