Spectre & Co.
For all those times you need to grab a quick shirt or tie, or even an extra layer to fight the chill, Spectre & Co. is there. The brand’s line-up of slim-fit dress shirts, blazers, vests and menswear accessories — everything from tie clips to leather goods — are geared to help you look your best as you travel on the go. No more worrying about that spilled coffee on your shirt or tie — it’s as easy as stopping in at Spectre & Co. before you catch the subway.
Dog & Co.
There’s no question that as guys have gotten into dressing better, that same approach has carried over across all lifestyle facets — including pet care, grooming and yes, pet style. Say you need a quick dog treat or accessory as you head home — stop through Dog & Co. “TurnStyle’s openness to being dog-friendly, and (the location’s) fashion-meet-function sensibility really sealed the deal for us,” founder Mindy Montney said — hence the idea of a pet lifestyle shop where you wouldn’t normally find one. The store stocks everything from neat dog toys to dog coats and jackets — all made with style in mind, of course.
Doughnuttery
Got a craving for a delicious doughnut to go along with your morning coffee? Swing through Donuttery for one of the shop’s famous sugared donuts, featuring flavors that run the gamut from classic — cinnamon sugar — to eclectic (the Purple Pig features maple, purple potatoes and bacon). It’s a welcome gourmet touch in an area where a premium doughnut — or gourmet food — is usually very hard to come by; you’ll never see eating or shopping as you travel the same way again.
Specs
Among the many moving parts of your everyday carry, finding the right pair of sunglasses can be a tricky endeavor. And managing to hang onto those sunglasses through your commute? Even more difficult at times. That’s where Specs comes into play.With a range of stylish, premium sunglasses fit for all occasions, it’s tough to go wrong. Seriously, from Ray-Ban to Persol to Oliver Peoples, the store’s list of brands has you completely covered when it comes to picking up a sweet pair of shades on your commute.
Batter & Cream
Certain sweets can evoke fond memories — who wouldn’t want that during a stressful commute? Batter & Cream takes that approach when crafting its tasty gourmet whoopie pies. Never had one? You’ll likely want to try as many of the shop’s flavors as you can — especially if you commute through Columbus Circle every day. They run the gamut from banana salted caramel to cookies and cream & peanut butter and jelly — talk about an enjoyable treat to snack on before, during and after your trip.
