A DESTINATION FOR DISCOVERY

JANUARY 30TH - FEBRUARY 2ND, 2027

Twice a year, Chicago Collective brings together hundreds of the industry's leading brands and retailers inside THE MART. Spanning the entirety of the 7th floor and an additional 33,000 square feet on the 4th floor, the show's open-booth format creates an easy-to-navigate environment for discovering classic and contemporary menswear, accessories, and footwear from domestic and international labels. Beyond the show floor, attendees enjoy a lineup of events, tastings, giveaways, and gatherings, all set against the backdrop of downtown Chicago's vibrant River North neighborhood. Whether you're visiting for the first time or returning season after season, Chicago Collective combines the energy of a major market with the welcoming atmosphere that keeps attendees coming back year after year.

  • “Chicago Collective has all the new styles coming out. I’ll be here every season until I retire. I want to see everything that is coming out before I give it to my customer and be able to see how the market is going to fluncuate so I can provide the best service for my customers.”

  • “It’s perhaps the largest and most important men’s retail trade show in the country. We caught up with vendor, previewed new fabrics, talked tarifis and got inspired by other attendees. We’ve been to 20 of these over the last 10 years and it feels nice to roam the booths and talk shop with our friends, suppliers and competitors.”

    @BLVDIER

  • “So proud of our team and our ever-patient partners who make this show light years ahead of all the rest. Thank you all for an incredible season feeling those Italian summer vibes!!! You guys are the very BEST!"
