Patch Picks: Take a Peek at Unique Boutiques

Looking for a place to find something that's one-of-a-kind? Patch has you covered.

Sometimes, buying something mass-produced is okay.  Like, plain white undershirts, for instance.  Or tube socks.  But other times, you’re looking for something uniquely tailored to you and your tastes, or a gift that really stands out.  Special occasions call for something... special.   In times like these, you don’t need a discount warehouse or a nationwide retailer; what you need is a boutique.

Luckily, Lisle has some of those available for your shopping needs and pleasures.  Here’s five you might want to check out:
