The Good Company
- Price band: 2/4
Stylish guys will want to head to this menswear boutique for casual threads ($20–$200) and accessories ($5–$18) with a streetwear edge. After his three-year-old clothing line, FreedMinds (thefreedminds.com), gained popularity with indie rap group Odd Future, California designer Kumasi Sadiki opened his first store with friends Kahim Smith and Quinn Arneson. The narrow industrial space stocks house-label goods, such as graphic T-shirts ($32) and lighters that read "bottle opener" ($5), alongside clothing from established brands, including MellowHype cotton hoodies ($60), After Midnight flannel button-up shirts ($70) and Death Precision Inc. baseball tees ($34). On your way out, pick up reading material such as photographer Sean Vegezzi’s I Don’t Want to Grow Up ($40), which documents his experiences in New York City. (212-966-0903, 97allen.com). Mon–Sat 11am–7pm, Sun noon–7pm.

Nomad Vintage pop-up
- Price band: 3/4
Vintage enthusiasts have another high-end spot for unique wares, thanks to this temporary shop from veteran dealers Katie McDonnell and David Brockman. The store is an expansion of McDonnell’s e-commerce site (nomadvintage.com) but a new venture for Brockman, who was a buyer for both now-closed East Village Honeymoon Vintage locations. The duo scoured the U.S., Europe and South America for one-of-a-kind finds and were even lucky enough to be invited into the homes of collectors to shop their private closets. The small, 250-square-foot space makes the most of its size with an eight-foot-tall glass case brimming with jewelry ($88–$225) and sunglasses ($125–$250), and an accent wall boasting an antique-looking mirror. Score standout pieces such as a 1970s Giorgio Sant’Angelo ribbon skirt ($385), a Michelle Lamy draped cotton top ($125) and a Kansai Yamamoto wool jacket with rubber-tire elbow patches ($995). Don’t miss the selection of Berlin-sourced leather handbags with brass hardware ($125–$295). (718-644-7634, nomadvintage.com). Mon, Tue by appointment, Wed–Sun 1–7pm. Through Mar 31.

The Spa at the Out NYC
- Price band: 2/4
Located on the second floor of gay-friendly hotel the Out NYC, this chic spa caters primarily to guys—but that shouldn’t keep ladies from booking an appointment.

Beauty guru Christopher Drummond (christopherdrummond.com) is the brains behind the oasis, expanding on the offerings previously available only to hotel guests, such as massages (60mins $150, 90mins $195), facials (60mins $140, 90mins $185), manicures ($35) and pedicures ($55). Body treatments (65mins $175) include detoxifying massages, scrubs and Turkish hammam services. You can even nab a haircut ($50) and beard trim ($25), as well as sugaring hair removal on brows, ears and nose ($15 each), or a full Brazilian bikini ($50–$65).

Summer Phoenix and Ruby Canner—owners of Lower East Side repurposed-vintage shop Some Odd Rubies—have opened this womenswear boutique with designer Lindsey Thornburg.
