Vineyard VinesGreenwich CT Flagship Store & Various Locations
The store was inspired by the owner brothers, Shep and Ian Murray's lifelong passion for boats, marine culture, and the nautical lifestyle. Notably, the cash wraps in the store were uniquely crafted from real boats, and the fixtures were made of teak wood with intricate finishing wheel details. This attention to detail and incorporation of nautical elements helped create a distinctive and authentic shopping experience for customers. Even to this day, Vineyard Vines has maintained this design concept, with over 30 stores.
