Note: Some US/UK stores will ship to Australia, so check them out too.
| Brand | Tier | Description | Website |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dilettante | Artisanal/Luxury | (Perth) High fashun shit. Stocks a tonne of next level brands for both guys and girls. Henrik Vibskov, Marsell, Gareth Pugh, Vivienne Westwood Man, Helmut Lang, Peachoo + Krejberg, A.F.Vandevorst and Y's by Yohji to name a few. | http://www.dilettante.net/ |
| Zekka | Artisanal/Luxury | (Perth) Dark high fashun shit. The works. m.a.+, InAisce, Devoa, Julius, LUC, Ann D and so on. | http://zekka.com/ |
| Claude Maus | Artisanal/Luxury | Lots of black | http://www.claudemaus.com.au/ |
| The Annex | High | (Sydney) Classic boutique clothing, designer styles. | http://www.theannex.com.au/ |
| Apartment | Medium | Mostly leans towards the jap-streetwear look but also has some brands that aren't as commonly found. | http://aptmnt.myshopify.com/ |
| Asos | Mall/Fast fashion | For the home brand quality can be variable, although as the price entails it usually isn't the best. The site also offers items from higher-tier brands. Frequent sales. | http://www.asos.com/ |
| Black Milk | Mall/Fast fashion | For all your galaxy leggings needs! | http://blackmilkclothing.com |
| Connor | Shit | Similar to YD except worse, tries to do menswear, but often poorly fitted and terrible build quality. Every man and his dog shops there though, avoid at all costs. | http://www.connor.com.au/ |
| Cotton On | Mall/Fast fashion | Dirt cheap basics (<$10); great sales. It can be hard to find good fits here, but the upside is that you won't have wasted a lot of money if you decide you don't like something. | http://www.cottonon.com.au/ |
| Country Road | Mall/Fast fashion | Very similar to Industrie, some nice "dressy" clothing. Definitely higher end of Mall Tier | http://www.countryroad.com.au/ |
| Culture Kings | Medium | Decent quality streetwear options, plenty of imported stuff thats tricky to get in Australia. | http://www.culturekings.com.au/ |
| Dirtbox | Medium | Good quality streetwear and casual, lots of brands that's tricky to get in Australia. Stocks Acne , Norse Projects , Lyle and Scott etc | http://www.dirtbox.com.au/ |
| FAT | Medium | Some solid streetwear pieces, nice button ups as well. | http://www.fatstores.com.au/ |
| Foot-Locker | Shit | Good if you need shoes for sports, but for things like air jordans/adidas originals you'll find much better prices elsewhere. | http://www.footlocker.com.au/? |
| For-Tomorrow | High | Great resource for Australian brands, from Andrew McDomble Shoemaker to Song for the Mute. Even has some BBS on the way | http://www.f-t.com.au |
| General Pants Co. | Mall/Fast fashion | A mixed bag of trendy/streetwear, you will have to dig a bit to find something good. | http://www.generalpants.com.au/ |
| Glue | Mall/Fast fashion | Not as good as General Pants, but if you dig you can find some cool streetwear gear. Very "mainstream" if you will. | http://www.gluestore.com.au/? |
| HypeDC | Mall/Fast fashion | Not bad for sneakers, they sell limited run shoes that may be hard to find elsewhere. Stock Vans, Supra, Adidas, etc. Can be a bit pricey. | http://www.hypedc.com/ |
| The Iconic | Low | Pretty huge range with decent quality, ships around the country. | http://www.theiconic.com.au/ |
| Incu | Medium | Nice range, stocks quality denim as well as some more exclusive brands. Well above mall-tier. | http://www.incuclothing.com/ |
| Industrie | Mall/Fast fashion | Pretty good basics/chinos/knits, probably the best mall tier store thats near you. | http://industrie.com.au/ |
| Kmart | Shit | Only for underwear/socks. | http://www.kmart.com.au/ |
| Marcs | Low | Some decent menswear, good for business etc. | http://www.marcs.com.au/Marcs-home.html |
| Myer/David Jones | Low | Some nice dressy gear if you're willing to search, make sure the fit is good. | http://www.myer.com.au/ |
| Nike Store | Low | Pretty standard, handy shoes for streetwear fits. | http://www.nikestore.com.au/ |
| Roger David/RDX | Mall/Fast fashion | Similar to Industrie in that its at the higher end of mall tier, not a bad place to start out if you have no clue. Only buy when on sale. | http://www.rogerdavid.com.au/ |
| Salvos/Vinnies | Uncategorized | Thrift shopping is pretty common in Australia, great for the tumblrcore look. Alter clothing to fit. | N/A |
| Saxony | Medium | Limited range, avant-garde style, decent quality. | http://www.saxony.com.au/ |
| Supply Store | Medium | Plenty of streetwear, can be very pricey though. | http://www.supplystore.com.au/ |
| Surf Shops | Shit | Clothes might be alright but you'll be paying out the ass for something you can get elsewhere without a tacky logo on it. | Various |
| Tarocash | Shit | Pretty much identical to Connor, stay away. | http://www.tarocash.com.au/ |
| Up There | Medium | Tons of streetwear, good selection of shoes and hats. | http://www.uptherestore.com/ |
| Vanishing Elephant | Medium | Mostly menswear, nice shirts. | http://www.vanishingelephant.com/ |
| Witchery | Low | Mostly business/prep clothing, has brogues and other #menswear accesories. | http://www.witchery.com.au/ |
| YD | Mall/Fast fashion | Pretty low quality but useful if you are looking for small sizes. | http://www.yd.com.au/ |
| Zanerobe | Low | Entry-level clothing, brands itself as streetwear. | http://www.zanerobe.com/ |
