A wide selection of major and minor streetwear brands. A nice broad range of products on a friendly and clear website.
A refreshing break from the normal mess that an Urban / Streetwear website normally comes across as. The site targets the UK market and due to it’s offline presence is able to carry some brands on it’s site that other ‘online only’ shops are not allowed to. Well worth a look!
Monsieur T. is a streetwear brand based in Portland, Oregon. It was put up in 2004 by Quentin T. who was born in raised in France. Influenced by music and extreme sports like skateboarding and snowboarding, the designs reflect the kind of lifestyle that is now part of his life.
Although it is a relatively young company, its website shows a potential to gaining a wider audience in the long run.
The shop section shows all the t-shirts in its collection. To help shoppers make their decisions easier, each shirt is labeled whether it is on sale or currently sold out. It saves them the frustration of finding out that the product is out of stock only after they have paid for it. Also, the products are divided between collections for males and females which makes it even easier to navigate the shop.
The shop policies are neatly outlined at the info section. They are straight-to-the-point which make them easier to understand than the usual policies which are filled with too much legal jargon.
Meanwhile, if you are interested to buy their products and would like to know where to get them, the site has a section on the list of retailers. They are divided into online retailers and those based in the United States and worldwide. They come with essential contact details like their addresses and websites, making it easier to locate them.
But aside from the website itself, the brand’s strength lies in the uniqueness and simplicity of their designs and their willingness to collaborate with artists and create designs with them. It ensures not only having a variety of designs but also the cool factor that the artists can add to an already cool product.
Originally opened in 1987, and now joined forces with Odd One Out in Edinburgh, Dr Jives has been at the forefront of streetwear in Scotland for 19 years.
Currently stocking Obey, Maharishi, Mhi, Ambiguous, Pointer, Baracuta, Tonite and own label Oddities.
