Maven Menswear is located in Lafayette, LA, in the heart of Cajun Country. Maven is well-known for carrying unique, trendy fashions, and for providing excellent customer service in a laid back, friendly shopping environment, and we’re proud to share that they carry our wooden bow ties and lapel flowers. We had the opportunity to sit down with Daniel Barbier, co-owner and founder of Maven Menswear.

What was your vision behind Maven Menswear? (give a brief summary of why you opened this store)
My wife, Christina Barbier, and I began Maven Menswear in 2011. With Christina’s 15+ years of experience in luxury retail and my business management experience, we wanted to create a concept that would give our customers in Lafayette the best of both worlds: a luxury shopping experience in a store with two price points. One price point is attainable to your average college student and we also offer higher end products for the more established professional.
Our Men’s concept has been extremely successful in the past two and a half years and has helped us to open our women’s version (Maven Womenswear) directly across the street from the men’s store. The women’s store has been open for about a year now and is based on the same values as the men’s store: offering unique fashions and styles and excellent customer service to the people of Lafayette.

What sets Maven Menswear apart from the other stores around it?
Maven brings a big city style to a small town. We wanted to carry different brands that weren’t available at other stores in Lafayette and some aren’t available in the state of Louisiana. We wanted to have cool, trendier clothes that cater to people of all ages with the same style.

What’s one item in your store that is your personal favorite?
It’s hard to say since I personally have purchased every item in the store and love them all. The wooden bow ties from Two Guys Bow Ties are definitely one of my top favorites through. They’re a really good conversation piece and will have you thanking people all night long for the compliments! When I first saw them on Uncrate.com, I knew they would be a perfect fit for our store ad I had to have them. I always tell people if a regular bow tie isn’t loud enough for you then the next step are the wooden ones from Two Guys Bow Ties.

Why do you think our Two Guys Bow Ties wooden bow ties and lapel flowers are a good fit for Maven Menswear?
The bow ties are a perfect fit for Maven. We have a very eclectic style and people who appreciate our style know that when they come into our store they will find fashions that are on trend and cool that will set them apart form the rest of the people they will be around when they are out at night or attending an event. That is exactly what Two Guys Bow Ties is about.

Any future plans you want to share?
Be on the lookout for more Maven stores to pop up in 2015! We’re still discussing what locations will be the best fit for our stores but expansion is definitely on the agenda for the early part of next year. Feel free to give us a shout if you would like to see the Maven stores in your city.

Forage Modern Workshop was born out of a love for the Midwest and good design. The result is a store that celebrates modern craftsmanship and unique designs, textures, and tastes, while still holding to the ruggedness and beauty that makes the Midwest what it is.

The owners of Forage Modern Workshop had a desire to take the pressure off buying great design. They wanted to provoke consciousness in purchasing by encouraging people to think twice about what they buy: who made it, where does it come from, how was it made? The products in their store reflect this desire for quality products made with a quality purpose. Each item in the store has been chosen with care, creating a selection of Midwest modern design, rustic gifts, and items made with the highest levels of craftsmanship.

Forage Modern Workshop believes that the home is a reflection of each person and family’s unique personalities. Your home is the physical representation of your story: it’s filled with furniture and decor that is old and new, gifts from those you love, and items that required months of saving and waiting. The pictures around us are reminders of places we have been, people we have loved, and moments we will never forget. The home is a space for inviting, welcoming, and warming. It should be beautiful because it reflects our stories, and our stories are beautiful.

What sets Forage Modern Workshop apart is its combination of old and new merchandise. Of the new merchandise, 60% is from local Midwest designers and makers, reinforcing the owners’ love for old school craftsmanship, their region, and modern design. They wanted local artists, craftsman, and designers to have a platform to showcase the quality, modern furniture that comes only from the Midwest.

But Forage Modern Workshop isn’t just about great furniture. They see themselves as a lifestyle store, and carry well-designed products for every aspect of your life. A mutual appreciation for craftsmanship in all things led to Forage carrying Two Guys Bow Ties. They appreciate the mixed elements found in our ties, an effect that is reflected throughout their store. We’re told they look really good next to the Eastvold Credenza, a classic piece with a distinct style.

Above all, the members of Forage Modern Workshop believe that work should be enjoyable, and they like having a good time. They hope to provide a space that supports young and fresh design and are collaborating with friends and other local businesses to hold galleries, pop-ups, and other fun events. Their store is a reflection of their passions, risks, and desires to encourage creativity and collaboration.

We’re proud American craftsmen at Two Guys Bow Ties, and try to pay homage to the grand ole USA in anyway possible. Many of our handcrafted, hardwood products take their names from great American cities, landmarks, and historic personalities. That’s one of the reasons we decided to use white oak for many of our hardwood accessories, like our Earl (pictured below).
White oak is about as American as a wood can be. Its acorns were once a food source for Native Americans. And years later the USS Constitution was built from it. If you’re not up on your naval history, you probably know that ship by its other name: Old Ironsides. Built to stave off the Barbary pirates of the Mediterranean—American Hero, Paul Revere made its bolts and breasthooks—Old Ironsides outlasted similar vessels, remaining seaworthy to this day. White oak is a pretty special, hardwearing tree whose wood we’d be crazy not to use while on this quest to bring back true American craftsmanship.

Speaking of American crafts, white oak was Gustav Stickley’s favorite wood. Stickley was the originator of the “American Craftsman” style we’re all so familiar with in wood working circles today. The godfather of the American Arts & Crafts movement chose white oak to be the bearer of his legacy.

Another fine-crafted, truly American article owes its perfection to white oak—bourbon. Bourbon’s a Southern American whiskey thought to have been brought to the new world by Scots who’d have likely made something that tasted more like Scotch whisky if it weren’t for North America’s different ingredients. Instead of barley, wheat, and rye; Americans used a corn mash. Once the whiskey is aged inside a new charred white oak barrel, it’s ready to become the backbone of your old-fashioned.

We love using white oak for all the same reasons as those who’ve come before us. It’s a historic wood that’s made its mark on the American identity. White oak is the wood of American artisanship, and we’ve been honored to be able to use it on our Earl and Chester wooden bow ties, as well as several lapel pins: including the Cambridge, Deerfield, and Concord. Most recently, we thought it appropriate to use it for some of our own stylish furniture on our Mammoth Valet Tray.
Start a fire, put a wooden bow tie and lapel pin on, pour a bourbon, have a seat in your early century American chair, and toast all those who came before’s brilliant use of white oak.

The wood on this bowtie is very pretty and the leather in the middle gives it a little bit of fun flare. I purchased this for my husband for our 3rd wedding anniversary. It came quickly and the personalized message was etched nicely. A beautiful products and great talking piece.
My husband is a carpenter and this was the Perfect gift for our 5th anniversary!! We both appreciated the details in construction right down to the packaging.
I gave this tie to a young man working for me and he went crazy! The tie is rich and looks expensive, not to mention, unique. I loved giving the tie and he loved receiving it. Well done!
Big hit at the wedding couldn’t of asked for better
As they already warned, the bow tie doesn’t look exactly like on the foto – still it is very beautiful and well made. I love it and get complimented on it all the time.
Only minus: the “belt” that let’s you fasten the tie to your neck could be more elegant to match the great style of the rest if the product.
Awesome bowtie, and friendly and very very helpful customer service! Just what i wanted and that I imagined!
The leather goes very good to Lumberjack shirts or more rough shirts, but also an awesome touch to a stylish shirt. All in all a awesome product!
I just have to now be cool enough to wear it like a boss T!
I bought the “Mr. T” tie for my son who wore it to church. We’re probably not supposed to draw attention to ourselves at church, but that’s exactly what this tie did. His young lady-friends were attracted to that tie like a moth to the flame! If I had known the reacion was going to be that strong, I would have thought twice about the purchase. Needless to say, my son loves the tie. My only complaint is the price, which is pretty steep for a tie. That being said, it was a very impactful birthday present.
The perfect piece to add to any classic menswear look, Princeton, is made of a charming Walnut wood with a blue silk centerpiece. This wooden lapel flower adds suave and sophistication to your outfit, sharpening the gentlemen appeal.
My first wooden bow tie and I’m glad I chose the Arthur. Can’t wait to wear it!
Gave this to a 13 year old grandchild……..he LOVES it it is well made & the knot color is perfect. He wants more also
I purchased Arthur and the matching pocket square as a birthday present for my 27 yr. old boyfriend. He loved it, but I think the the most unbiased reviews came from his friends when he wore it out that night. He got ENDLESS compliments on how cool it was and cool it made him look. Now all his friends think I’m the best girlfriend for giving such a great gift 🙂 Every material is the highest quality, the orange color coordinates with more than you’d think, and my boyfriend says even though he can feel the wood occasionally against his neck it’s actually very comfortable. Would definitely recommend this product and company to everyone.
I love my bow tie and will be buying more very soon! It was a huge hit and adds to my unique style for sure
I got this bowtie for my brother for Christmas, and it totally rocks! It was really hard trying to pick out which awesome bowtie to get him, but Arthur was a great first wooden bowtie. It is very subtle, so you don’t notice that it’s wooden at first, but has that unique flair that gets comments from EVERYONE. Love, Love, Love!
I love this bow tie. It’s my first from here, and it was a great choice! People love that it is real wood, as I got lots of hands on it. Good craftsmanship, good style. A+

I ordered this fedora for my husband for Christmas. He LOVED it! It fit perfectly and he has gotten so many compliments! Quality construction! I will definitely be ordering another one soon!
I love this, so much so I purchased another one! I get a lot of compliments on it and people asking me where i got it. I always give them your info. The craftsmanship on these are amazing I was skeptical to spend so much at first but like I said…I bought another one after I received this one!
Loved this fedora so much I purchased a 2nd the day after it arrived! The attention to detail and craftsmanship really says alot about this company’s charecter. They have my buisness from now on! Great job and keep up the good work. Hope to be able to customize a fedora with different types of wood one day.
I received my black fedora this morning – along with a skyline bow tie, lapel, and handkerchief – and I have to say I am beyond satisfied with the products. I have the smallest head and the 55 cm is a perfect fit. Very lightweight, sleek, stylish, and extremely fast shipping. Now I can’t wait for my friend’s wedding. I highly recommend. Thank You!
I’m a hat guy, plain and simple. I mostly wear cabbie hat’s and fedora’s. I’ve got plenty of fedoras, but this one takes the cake! The feel is great, the brim is beautiful, and this fedora goes with everything, from shorts and a tee to a 3 piece suit. I love it! It’s hard to decide to wear any of my others now, unless it’s raining… now 2 guys should make a wood brimmed cabbie hat!
I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend. We actually discovered them by seeing the company on Shark Tank, and I was waiting for a perfect time to purchase this for him. He absolutely loves it, and he looks very fashionable in it!
Gave it to my husband as a Christmas gift and he loved it!!!
It’s a beautiful hat, however my husband is disappointed in the fact that it cannot get wet at all. I thought the hat was a bit small… the brim could have been a bit larger. It looked a little awkward on him. I’ll send a photo if necessary.
A normal fedora is a bit bigger with a larger brim .
I’m a 27 year old woman and I bought this fedora after I saw it on the Shark Tank episode. I work in fashion and I thought the hat was really unique and stylish. I was concerned about sizing because I am a female so I bought a small after being confused by the sizing on the website. The small fits but it is snug. I probably could of gone for a medium. I have an average size head, not big or small. I think a take away would be that the sizing on the website could be improved (maybe give a measurement of the length /width of the opening of the hat. Right now I’m not sure what 55cm is but it’s certainly not the length of the opening of the hat.
Regardless I love the hat and I recommend a medium if you consider yourself to have an average sized head.
My husband loved the hat but even the large was to small. Please make larger sizes.
