Khaki's of Carmel
Carmel Plaza, Ocean Avenue and Junipero Street, Carmel, (831) 625‑8106 khakisofcarmel.com
In an architectural landscape where the primary color of the palette is khaki, it’s perhaps not surprising that Khaki’s of Carmel wins top honors for best men’s clothing store – not to mention that the county’s famed literary son, John Steinbeck, favored khakis as well. But Khaki’s of Carmel has a lot more on offer than cotton pants of a beige variety – it has near‑everything a well‑heeled man could want, from shirts to shoes to pants of all kinds. Jackets, too. It’s often said “dress for the job you want,” and if that job is starring in a potential sequel to Big Little Lies, Khaki’s has you dialed – the clothes may cost a pretty penny, but the quality shows.
