Hello Boys

My bf and I went to Nashville to see a show and he expressed interest in finding a great Western shirt. After perusing the reviews on Unilocal,I brought him to Hello Boys. The owner immediately introduced himself and made us feel welcome in his shop. Honestly, it’s worth coming in here just to chat with Gavin, but his store is amazing. He has a great selection of vintage shirts, pants, boots, ties, luggage, and bar ware. The shop is small, but there are plenty of interesting pieces to look at, even for the ladies. The prices are reasonable for the quality of the items. We left with the perfect Wrangler Western shirt and can’t wait to go back next time we’re in Nashville. Hello Boys is a true local gem.

I am so glad the BF and I found this shop whilst attending the Tomato Arts Festival!
In addition to men’s apparel they also have very unique glassware, decanters, and luggage. The staff is extremely friendly and held our purchases until we could come back and pick them up the next day when we weren’t at the festival. You should definitely check out this place if you are looking for unique/​vintage gifts and apparel!

Gavin has a borderline freakish understanding of style, his inventory in the store, and how to match it with what you’re looking for. Super welcoming, totally not pretentious. It’s the place to go for not-​chick-​stuff awesome vintage. GO HERE, DUDES!

Tiny but cute, with a meticulously curated collection of vintage stuff. The friendly owner greeted me but didn’t intrude. Nothing there for me. Pricier than a thrift store, but certainly higher quality than most thrifts too. Visit, if only because there are a dozen other fun shops within steps or blocks.

Gavin is a rockstar, great little shop in the Five Points area. Can be pricey but worth it, everything is hip and superbly high quality

Gavin helped me find two excellent pieces. Very pleasant with a refined taste.

Super cute little shop with special things! Gavin is really friendly and gave great recommendations for things to do around town!

I love this shop. Gavin is super helpful and nice. I have friends who are musicians back in my hometown and this is my go-​to for their stage wear. Like, cool bar stage wear, not Opry Stage wear. Although Hello Boys could easily dress any act on the AmericanaFest circuit. Back to my friends, I have to look out for them cause if you’re a friend of mine, you need to know you can not pull off the Luke Bryan look with a fricking baseball cap stage wear (cause that is not ok, Luke Bryan, if you’re reading this.) Get yourself a cool Kenny Rogers Vintage short sleeve shirt and take off those fucking oakley wrap around sunglasses. Boots, not Sneakers, dudes, you ain’t Willie Nelson! Get it together or you’re probaly gonna send the rest of your life in that hometown bar playing Tom Petty covers. HELLO BOYS IS AWESOME!

I showed up at this shop after closing time and desperately in need of a last minute gift. The owner had just finished loading everything into the shop to close up for the day. I walked away bummed out, but he came out to the parking lot and offered to open back up for me to have a look. I had never been there before and was AMAZED at how much cool stuff had been crammed into this tiny little retail spot! Vintage shoes, boots, clothes, bags, etc, all of it very well maintained and cared for. Most impressive, however, was at the end of the work day, the owner took his time and helped me sort through various items in pursuit of something special. I walked away with an awesome and unique leather bag I couldn’t have found anywhere else. It was so well kept that the person I bought it for didn’t know it was vintage until I told them. They thought it was a knock off from Off 5^th or somewhere of the sort. I plan on returning and I plan on letting everyone that ever asks about it know that the only thing better than their merchandise is their customer service. Top notch!

This all-​male vintage shop in Five Points is awesome. Went in to get a shirt for my husband and left with half my Christmas shopping done for him and my brothers. Got awesome pointers from the super knowledgeable and friendly staff. The prices are unbelievably reasonable for such nice stuff. Definitely worth stopping in for the deals and a chat with the least snooty boutique staff ever.

«Hello Boys» is the complement to the neighboring «Goodbuy Girls» boutique in Five Points. First, I would NEVER envision any place like this in Nashville. I would EXPECT it, now that I’ve seen it, but would have never dreamed it. In a nutshell, it’s urban cowboy vintage meets attitude-​free hipster fashion smack-​dab in the middle of Music City USA. Owners Gavin O’Neill and Jeremy Ryan may have stumbled onto every music industry’s project cover shot in this town. Their taste is exquisite. When I worked in the music industry, our stylist would search for days for outfits for our male artists and walk away with ho-​hum stuff at a $ 3000+ price tag for the entire photo shoot wardrobe. Not here. A stylist could walk into this place with $ 300 bucks and walk out the envy of even the most savvy New York and Los Angeles stylists.
Their collections of ties, bags and shirts are impressive. I ran into a guy on the street wearing one of the handmade western shirts bragging to another guy about the deal he snagged. It’s so great to see this kind of place on the Eastside! The merchandising sets are pretty swift. If you’re a fan of primitive modern sleek, you’ll love the fixtures and set-​up. Bravo and HELLLLLLOOOOOO BOYS! Welcome!
