Local 35 Closing


Alright kids. It's good news/bad news time.

Bad news first, as always. Local 35, Portland's premiere (by which we mean only) men's boutique, is shutting its doors for good this month. That means you'll have to buy you ridiculously expensive jeans elsewhere. A good spot to start would be Machus, the vaingloriously titled new shop from Local 35's owner, Justin Machus. It's at 542 East Burnside, in good company between the Russian Mafia-owned strip club and the Plaid Pantry.

There is good news though. Seriously good news.

Good news: Local 35 is clearing inventory with a weekly escalating sale where percentages of discount are as ridiculous as the clothing's original price.

From January 2nd to January 8th (right now), everything in the store is 35% off, meaning you just might be able to sneak out with a T-shirt for under $50. But it gets better.

  • Jan. 9th - 15th ------- 50% off (Jeans will now just be regular expensive.)
  • Jan. 16th - Close ----- 75% off (Only XXL screen printed button-ups will be left.)
This may be your only chance to get Japanese denim for under a paycheck, so don't pass it up. But don't get in my way, either.
