GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Ohrbach's began in New York in 1923 with a focus on moderate-priced clothing and accessories sold in volume. The retailer later added men's goods as its business grew, bringing its name to city-center flagships and suburban shopping destinations. This men's sport polo shirt connects everyday style with that apparel history, from the original Union Square store to the West 34th Street flagship and the postwar growth of shopping in California. A thoughtful choice for department-store history fans and Ohrbach's collectors.
Ohrbach's began on October 4, 1923, when Nathan M. Ohrbach and dress manufacturer Max Wiesen opened a store in a fire-damaged New York City building on Union Square. After a dispute, Ohrbach opened a nearby second store and bought Wiesen's interest in 1928. The moderate-priced retailer emphasized clothing and accessories, including ready-to-wear sold in volume, and later added men's and children's goods. In 1954, its flagship moved to West 34th Street, across from the Empire State Building. The company expanded after World War II, opening California buying offices and stores, including a Miracle Mile location in 1948 and branches in downtown Los Angeles, La Mirada, Panorama City, Cerritos, and Glendale. In 1962, Netherlands-based C.&A. Brenninkmeyer acquired an interest and eventually took full control; Nathan Ohrbach retired in 1965. The chain later came under holding company Amcena. In June 1986, Amcena acquired Howland-Steinbach and announced Ohrbach's closure. The remaining New York and New Jersey stores closed in January 1987 and reopened under the Steinbach name two months later.
