Trunk Club, the Chicago exclusive men's outfitters, is opening its doors at 325 W. Ohio from 6pm to 9pm tomorrow night and 10am to 3pm Saturday for its annual holiday shopping event. Browse their selection of clothing from higher-end men's casual wear, including Eton, J. Brand, Gant, D.S. Dundee, Oak Street Bootmakers and Jack Spade. Truck Club provides one-on-one consultation and delivers ready to wear outfits in your own trunk (hence the name). Food will be provided by 25 Degrees as well as access to a full bar. If there's a man in your life lacking in the clothing department or who would rather spend his days in a torn t-shirt and pleated pants than go shopping, this might be the best gift you can give.
