Meet Your Maker Pop-Up

As the name implies, this weekend-long pop-up is your chance to meet the brains behind your favorite jeans, button-downs, reversible bow ties, watches and shoes crafted from as close as SF to all the way out in Brooklyn, LA and Portland.

IN THE BUFF

World Naked Bike Ride SF

Consider this fair warning for when you see a bunch of naked bikers pedaling from the Embarcadero to Golden Gate Park and back. Dubbed "Critical Ass," they're demonstrating against pollution in what looks sort of like the Bay to Breakers for the bicycling set. Ah, San Francisco...

Hundreds of Wines for You

For four hours straight, you can weave around Fort Mason's massive pavilion, alternating from food station (nearly 40 of them, including Delfina, Il Cane Rosso and A16) to wine station (pouring about 200 wines from France, Italy and California) and back. Not that anyone's counting.
