Men’s lifestyle shop Righno to open in OTR after launches in Indianapolis and Columbus

Columbus native Corey Bee will open his lifestyle boutique Righno in March at 1417 Vine St. in Over-the-Rhine. The business started off as a men’s and women’s online retailer, but when Bee opened his first shop in Indianapolis in Fall 2014 he decided to focus on men’s only.

He opened the second Righno last Fall in Columbus.  

“When I started Righno, a storefront was always in the future,” Bee says. “I always wanted a physical location for the shop, and an online shop was a way for people to see what was coming — almost like a lookbook or showroom of sorts.”

Righno is a true men’s lifestyle shop that embodies the attitudes, opinions, interests and overall way of life of its customers. When a customer walks into the shop, he’ll find clothing, accessories, books, plants and hygiene products inspired by European, Australian and Southern Californian streetwear styles.

“I think OTR is the perfect spot to expand to because of the diversity and culture of the community,” Bee says. “It’s so raw and natural in every aspect. It’s said to be the largest and most intact urban historic district in the United States, and the best part is that the city is doing everything in its power to keep it that way while making it even more beautiful and keeping its charm.”

Righno will be the third men’s-only lifestyle shop in OTR, but with something different to offer.

“We believe Righno will give guys the complete shopping experience, but if we don’t have it we will direct customers to a neighboring shop,” Bee says.
