Jackson, Wyoming (October 21, 2014) – Stio, the Jackson,
Wyoming-based mountain apparel brand, has announced the securing of a
lease to open its next Stio Mountain Studio™ in Chicago’s flourishing
Bucktown neighborhood. Stio’s real estate partner Jones Lang LaSalle
(JLL) assisted in completing the transaction.
Stio
will bring to Bucktown its unique line of “mountain town style meets
backcountry performance” apparel. After a rigorous national search, the
North Damen location was selected for its active, outdoor-centric
population and status as a hotspot for affluent young professionals. The
ambiance of the historic warehouse storefront will be respected while
being transformed into a modern, multi-level space that emulates Stio’s
successful Jackson Hole Mountain Studio™.
“We
are excited to open our second Stio Mountain Studio™ in Chicago. We
have quickly fallen in love with the Bucktown neighborhood and think it
is a perfect fit for the Stio brand ethos,” stated Stio CEO/Founder
Stephen Sullivan. “With year round airline service and four direct
flights per day in the summer and winter, Chicago and Jackson Hole
already have a strong connection. We look forward to bringing a bit of
mountain soul to outdoor enthusiasts in this great American city.”
Retail is a key component of Stio’s long-term strategy and the company has plans to open Stio Mountain Studios™
in carefully selected locations yearly. The brand continues to grow its
direct-to-consumer business and recently launched its widely acclaimed
Fall/Winter 2014 Collection.
The Stio Mountain Studio™- Bucktown will open early in the spring of 2015.
