“We’ve been looking at Atlanta for a while. It’s such an amazing city, especially the Old 4th Ward neighborhood with its rich history and creative energy. Once we heard about the Ponce City Market space, we knew it was a perfect fit for our brand. We think there’s a big opportunity for us to find a strong customer base in the Atlanta region” – Brendon Lynch, Rudy’s CEO. 

Free haircuts ALL day! To celebrate its grand opening in Atlanta, Rudy's Barbershop, located at Ponce City Market (on North Ave) is giving free cuts all day starting at 9AM! 

I got my cut yesterday and got a chance to meet and chat with Rudy's CEO, Brendon Lynch. They are very excited to be in Atlanta and feel there is a hip crowd here that will embrace Rudy's. I can tell you, there is and they will. While the space is full service, ,offering everything from a basic haircut to coloring, Rudy's is a welcoming place - you want to enter and the staff makes you feel welcome. That's great but what about the quality of services? Excellent, of course! I love my haircut.

chubbies ponce city market

On November 18th, revolutionary lifestyle brand Chubbies is bringing their unique-yet- beloved brand to Atlanta with a pop-up store in Ponce City Market. Through the end of January, San Francisco-based Chubbies is excited to offer their festive, fun and distinctive offerings to Atlanta shoppers.

After four close friends realized that most clothing companies were all about abiding by “fashion” norms, they set out to revolutionize the clothing industry. With just a handful of pairs of shorts, a vision to do something different and inspiration from their dads’ 70s and 80s attire, these friends and Stanford graduates launched Chubbies in 2011 on two fundamental premises: that pants represent the work week and that the state of shortswear was dire. Fast forward a few years and the brand’s collection of short shorts has become a phenomenon for men’s clothing, or as their motto states, a Weekend Revolution.

Due to the rapid success of their shorts, which are available in everything from khaki to holiday-themed Santa shorts, Chubbies has expanded to offer swim trunks, Hawaiian shirts, half-zip sweatshirts and more.

The Weekend Revolution spreads to Atlanta this holiday season with the Chubbies pop-up shop on the second floor of Ponce City Market. In addition to a vast collection of their signature clothing pieces, the showroom will feature arcade games, a tiki bar and lounge area, exclusive accessories and free koozies.

“Atlanta is one of our top markets, so it felt completely natural to select the city for our 2016 holiday pop- up”, says Jon-Mark Craddock, Chubbies’ Retail Operations Manager. “Not to mention, Ponce City Market is one of the coolest storefront set-ups we’ve ever seen with such an incredible selection, making it a one-stop destination for all holiday shoppers. We’re thrilled to be here!”

Chubbies will launch their pop-up at Ponce City Market with a Grand Opening Party in their showroom on Friday, November 18th from 5PM – 10PM. Then, they will kick off the weekend every Friday at 5PM with a weekly Happy Hour complete with free beverages, hot dogs and koozies.
