" As we look headlong into holiday shopping season, you know what I think to myself? I&amp;#039;d sure love a retail experience that makes me feel like sht. Wait, no I wouldn&amp;#039;t. I&amp;#039;d like shopping to be as painless as possible. Obviously. And yet, somehow, shop-keeps have just caught on to this concept.  According to the WSJ, there&amp;#039;s a new trend in the menswear scene. And, no, it&amp;#039;s not for tartan blazers, fine-gauge knitwear, or double monk strap shoes (though those are also in the air). Rather, the new thing is to take the stuffiness out of the classic apparel-hunting scenario, which has become a bit too highfalutin for some folks.  Believe it or not, stores like Barneys New York and Bergdorf Goodman \u2014 long known for their bougie, gilded reputations \u2014 are leading the charge with remodeled sales floors and rebranded marketing. They&amp;#039;re doing away with glass-enclosed product displays and the solemn, reverential vibes of yore and ushering in a more relaxed, friendlier atmosphere to accommodate a more youthful customer base.  You mean that as I&amp;#039;m considering parting with my hard-earned dough, it might be best to make me feel at ease, not on edge? Who&amp;#039;d have thought?
