Featured – Jake Vintage

Jonathan H. Kanarekis is a haberdasher. A dealer in men’s fashion and sundries. When was the last time you had access to one of those?
Proprietor of the Los Angeles-based Jake Vintage, Johnathan purveys the highest quality of vintage menswear and sartorial advice. An infinite resource of do’s and don’ts, he’ll walk you through his beautifully wood-paneled store front with your best interest at heart. He will guide you through how an article is traditionally worn, and then introduce you to the dressing room… which is an entire second room. A lounge with a sofa, and wet bar, all that you might change your pants in the height of comfort. If you are hunting for a specific item or preparing to look great at an special event, Jonathan may very well offer to personally look for you while he is out buying for the store.
“Vintage has a lot of different meanings. For me, it’s about a mental throwback to days of yore when men dressed better and cared about their behavior.”
