Trüffelschwein

This whimsical shop on a winding side street of the popular Mitte shopping district provides wearable morsels for the modern male fashionista. Owners Ralf and Lyon carefully cull items with all the care of a Parisian chocolatier and his ganache: hard-to-find labels like YMC, Paul & Joe and Lee Gold; international flavor with classic apparel from American brands Penguin and Keds, and chunky knits from Japanese label Haversack. Tongue-in-cheek accessories like silver necklaces with Lego pendants wax equal parts nostalgic and unexpected.

The minimal, handsome space invites several perusals through the racks, though Trüffelschwein’s well-tailored goods warrant one caveat for men with lady-friends (who might ask to try on their newfound purchases): She’ll likely refuse to give them back.
