A Showdown in Chinadown
Last week a few of the NKPR team jetted to NYC to join NBA athletes and custom menswear e-tailer Indochino for the ultimate sports and style showdown: a Showdown in Chinatown to be precise.

NBA athletes including Tony Parker, Marcin Gortat, Brandon Jennings and Steve Nash were suited up by Indochino for the 4th annual charity soccer match. The event benefits under-served children with medical support, education and personal development through the Steve Nash Foundation. But before the athletes hit the field, they connected one-on-one over ties and tape measures.

Aimed at sophisticated, stylish guys, event sponsor Indochino is the world’s first online provider of made-to-measure suits. Bloomberg Businessweek dubbed Indochino a start-up to watch.
And if there’s one thing the ladies on the NKPR team would watch a lot more of, it’s basketball – but only if the players are wearing stylish Indochino suits!
