02 03 Oi Poloi The UK’s unofficial second


city has a seriously impressive menswear scene, of which Oi


Polloi is a long-time stalwart. Open since 2002 it quickly became synonymous with the


city’s swagger, and now, 13 years later and housing brands such as Folk, Beams Plus and Stone Island, it’s still a must-visit store for chaps in the area. oipolloi.com


End Clothing


Flying the flag for the North East, End was established in 2006 as a fuss-free shopping destination with global brands for the men of Newcastle. Offering a decent variety of


street wear like Arpenteur to the smarter end of the scale with Grenson it’s evolved to showcase the very best in contemporary menswear. endclothing.co.uk


04 Dover Street Market


From sneakers to stylish sweats to more cutting edge couture,


DSM is on a mission to change the way we market shop. At the helm of it all is Rei Kawakubo, the brains behind Comme des Garçons, who set out to, “create a market where various creators gather together in an ongoing atmosphere of beautiful chaos.” We believe she’s nailed it. doverstreetmarket.com
