Haberdashers sell men clothes like ties, gloves, and hats.

Haberdasher actually comes from medieval times. when merchants in Germany pushed their carts up and down city streets in the early morning. House wives would call out, "do you have...cloak, hat, a pan, etc?" and merchants called back Ich Haba das (I have that). So they were "habadasers".

Harry Truman was a haberdasher, and continued his natty yet dignified style through his presidency.
