Men's consignment clothing store brings low-cost fashions to Ada

For years, women have enjoyed the benefits of stepping out in style with lower cost consignment clothing and now an Ada merchant offers the same price advantages for men.

According to excerpts from the story:

Russ Martin's passion for high-end clothing started early. He remembers wearing Ralph Lauren shirts to work at a chicken joint in his hometown of Allegan when he was 16 and a few grease splatters were the price he paid to be on the cutting edge of fashion. Today, an entire bedroom of his Ada home is devoted to his wardrobe, where the labels read like a catalogue of designer Who's Who. He knows he's not the only man in West Michigan who loves clothes.

Martin, with partner Barri Bevan serving as manager, opened George's, a consignment clothing store for men at 527 Ada Drive SE, earlier this month. The 1,500-square-foot store sells name-brand men's clothing, shoes and accessories such as Calvin Klein, Giorgio Armani, Brooks Brothers, Ermenegildo Zenga and John Varvatos.
