Chaco Launches Pop-up Store in Chicago to Celebrate Grateful Dead Concerts

June 16, 2015 (ROCKFORD, Mich.) Chaco is opening its first-ever pop-up retail store in Chicago in concert with the Grateful Dead’s Fare Thee Well shows at Soldier Field. The store will open at Timbuk2’s Bucktown location, June 22-July 6, and will feature the brand’s limited-edition “Dancing Bears” and “Steal Your Face” Grateful Dead sandals.

Last month, Chaco introduced two sandal options featuring the band’s iconic Dancing Bears and Steal Your Face designs. The limited-edition sandals sold out in a matter of hours on Chacos.com.
“Our store activation in Chicago gives us a great opportunity to celebrate with Deadheads and also to engage a broader consumer group in a key market,” says Josh Weichhand, Chaco’s brand marketing manager. “The store concept marries classic Deadhead psychdelia with a modern design aesthetic to create a retail concept that we think is really unique.”


Chaco will host a launch party at the pop-up store on the evening of Monday, June 22, which will include a DJ, beer provided by local brewery, Revolution Brewing Company, and appetizers supplied by local vendors.

Chaco's Fit for Adventure national tour will also make a stop at Soldier Field’s vendor area during the Grateful Dead concerts, featuring a booth with product try-ons, sweepstakes entries, and giveaways.
