The Dallas Men’s Show welcomes top menswear retailers from coast to coast to shop a curated, expanded array of traditional and contemporary lines in multiple neighborhoods.

The market center offers apparel, accessories, and footwear in permanent showrooms and temporary exhibitors as well as adjacent neighborhoods for western products and men’s gifts thus creating a complete marketplace for retailers.
“We are anticipating the largest and most active Men’s Show in many years,” said Cindy Morris, president and CEO of Dallas Market Center. “The brands are eager to participate in a centrally-located, easy-to-work and enjoyable marketplace that delivers top retailers. Likewise, the buyers are looking for one show that fulfills all their needs across apparel, accessories, and even men’s gifts. We had an amazing winter edition of the show so we’re building upon the momentum of well-attended, inspiring, and safe events.”
