This very special anniversary edition of the Men’s Apparel Club of the Carolinas (aka the Southern Clothing Market/Charlotte Men’s Show) begins on Friday, August 6th and runs through August 9th. According to menswear rep and longtime show supporter Lynda Carpenter, “We expect great attendance as stores in the Southeast are actually doing quite well right now.”  

Celebrating its 80th year anniversary (which got pushed back six months due to the pandemic), the Charlotte show will have approximately 160 sales reps showing multiple lines, so hundreds of great brands will be represented. To celebrate the anniversary, the show is hosting a barbeque and country music event on Saturday night, and a super 80th-anniversary cocktail party with a grand Motown review on Sunday.
