AM HISTORY
In 1978, Craig Andrisen and Dave Morton opened a 3,200 square foot store, selling high-end men's wear on the corner of 17th and Stout in Denver, Colorado. After seven successful years, the duo opened a second ANDRISEN MORTON MEN'S location in the Denver Tech Center. They consolidated both stores in 1999, and settled into their current, 10,000 square foot Cherry Creek North location.
Four years down the road, Craig Andrisen and Dave Morton decided to delve into the women's business; they purchased Auer's, located at the opposite end of the block from their men's store. Like its counterpart, ANDRISEN MORTON WOMEN'S features many world-class designer fashions.
In Denver, ANDRISEN MORTON fills a niche for shoppers, as a high-service alternative to department store chains such as Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, who've long lured similar clientele.
A NEW BEGINNING
After three years in the women's business, the Cherry Creek North retailer underwent an extensive $1.4 million dollar renovation of their women's store. The new 11,000 square foot space contains new apparel and bridal sections, expanded fitting rooms, and 1,400 square feet dedicated to accessories – including sizeable jewelry, handbag and shoe departments.
