NN.07, the Copenhagen-based menswear brand, is set to open its first flagship store in the United States this summer in New York City’s SoHo neighborhood, marking a significant milestone in the brand’s international expansion.

The announcement comes as NN.07 continues to experience steady growth and seeks to establish a presence in key markets worldwide. The new flagship store, located at 276 Lafayette Street, will be a strategic partnership with Justin Berkowitz, the former Men’s Fashion Director at Bloomingdale’s.

Anders Rahr, CEO of NN.07, expressed enthusiasm for the brand’s expansion into the U.S. market, stating, “A store in New York is a true manifestation of brand momentum, and today we’re proud to announce the opening of our first flagship store in the United States.”

With over 15 years of experience in the industry, Berkowitz brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to his role as strategic partner. He was instrumental in introducing NN.07 to brick-and-mortar destinations in the United States in 2016 and has been a longtime advocate for the brand.

Commenting on his new partnership with NN.07, Berkowitz emphasized the brand’s commitment to quality and sustainability, stating, “NN.07 offers the customer quality garments built on interesting design concepts made to last for everyday use. I’m thrilled to partner with NN.07 to open its first store in the United States.”

NN.07’s expansion into New York City represents just the beginning of its broader strategy to establish branded spaces and flagship stores in cultural hotspots across the U.S. and Europe. The company aims to carefully select locations and partners that align with its vision and values.

The new NN.07 flagship store is scheduled to open in late summer 2024, offering customers a curated selection of the brand’s signature wardrobe essentials and fashion-forward designs.
