1. Elk Head Clothing at Ponce City Market – Gift Shopping for Men in Atlanta
Elk Head Clothing is a men’s clothing store located in Ponce City Market. Elk Head Clothing is similar to the Banana Republic or Bonobos.
Think slim-cut clothing for metro-sexual, attractive men in their 20s, 30s, or 40s.
I’d recommend checking out Elk Head Clothing in person. It’s on the second floor at Ponce City Market, and Ponce City Market is cool to explore.
I personally love the simple long-sleeved shirts and the colorful shirts from Elk Head Clothing.
Elk Head Clothing also sells cool Atlanta hats that would make the perfect Christmas gift for men.

Okay, this is embarrassing. I discovered Oak for Men because I was at a guy’s house, making out, and well – he smelled amazing. After I complimented him, he shared his secret: the Oak for Men Grooming Wash.
