The Monocle Shop

Despite the small footprint of this West Village store— a trademark of all the Monocle shops, from London to Tokyo, Hong Kong and Los Angeles — it carries a fairly large, well-edited selection of merchandise. Monocle is a global briefing headquartered in London with bureaux in Tokyo, Zürich and New York, covering international affairs, business, culture and design defining the spirit of a generation. For the Monocle readers the shop is an oasis, for the others we recommend it as a great discovery.
