Great online service and clothes
I think I am developing a mild addiction to shopping this place online. I have ordered from Yoko multiple times, and every time the clothes arrives at my door in under 48 hours, and looks amazing! That service smokes any other online experience I've had!
I would describe the style as comfortable hip. Everything tends to fit well (not too loose or tight) and fall nicely. I'm not sure what they do to their fabric, but it is ridiculously comfortable, and seems to be of very high quality as well.
Next time I'm in Brooklyn, I'll definitely check this place out in person. Until then, I'm sure I'll be clicking my way to more Yoko clothes, as it gradually takes over my weekend wardrobe.
Highly recommended!!

I make sure to stop into Yoko Devereaux about once a month just to see what’s new, I love the place. They have some really great men’s clothes and rumor has it that they may be carrying women’s clothes soon, so your girlfriend will have something to look at while you’re shopping.
First of all, everything is sooooooooooo comfortable. Almost everything’s made out of pre-washed t-shirt or sweatshirt material and it’s so soft and comfy. Y’know your favorite t-shirt that you’ve been wearing for 5 years? This stuff is better than that. I love the fit of the clothes too. Everything looks great on the hanger, but as soon as I try it on it looks EVEN BETTER. They fit perfect every time. Thirdly, the clothes are just plain cool. There are always some really interesting colors in the store that I haven’t seen anywhere else. The designs are always new and inventive while not being overly “fashiony.”
As a bonus, I really love the store itself. The silkscreen wall behind the counter; the exposed brick; the cool old luggage; the posters of Michael Jackson in the main space and Farrah Fawcett in the dressing room; everything looks awesome.
Definitely check it out next time you’re in Williamsburg.
