Menswear designer Todd Snyder has officially opened a new retail storefront on Music Lane. The shop serves as the designer's second Texas location, featuring a curated mix of store-exclusive apparel, vintage finds, and a built-in bar.

Why it matters

The opening marks a long-term shift for the designer, who has spent over a decade visiting Austin for wholesale operations before finally establishing a permanent retail presence here.

The new storefront follows 15 years of the designer visiting Austin for wholesale operations and five years of searching for the right site. Construction for the new Music Lane space took one year to complete.
