| Brand | Tier | Description | Website |
|---|---|---|---|
| American Apparel | Mall/Fast fashion | Has basic t-shirts in a variety of cuts. Tees fit well even for slimmer people. | http://www.americanapparel.net/ |
| All Saints | Medium | Decent construction but sub-par materials for the price, they often try to sneak cheap fabrics into the mix. Good for edgier clothing on a budget, but advised to buy only on sale, avoid their jackets unless at a steep discount - the jeans and t-shirts are arguably their best products. | http://www.allsaints.co.uk/ |
| ASOS | Mall/Fast fashion | Online. 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.co.uk/ |
| Albam | Medium | Online, London. Pretty minimal stuff, is slightly heritage-influenced. | http://www.albamclothing.com/ |
| Ben Sherman | Online, lots probably | http://www.bensherman.com/ | |
| The Bureau | High | Online, Belfast. Stocks a wide range of designer brands, including some that are fairly difficult to acquire in the UK, including visvim, Ten C, and Needles. | https://www.thebureaubelfast.com/ |
| Cos | Low | Online, London. Owned by H&M, but better materials and a more mature aesthetic. More designer influence - best for its particular minimal, Jil Sander-influenced look in its price range. | http://www.cosstores.com/ |
| Dogfish | Medium | Online, Cambridge, Norwich (also incorporates Sevenwolves in Cambridge and Norwich). | http://www.dogfishmen.co.uk/ |
| End Clothing | Medium | Online, Newcastle. Wide range of brands stocked, including some Japanese streetwear brands - WTAPS, Neighborhood. Good sales, also has a horrific "Monday Blues" competition on facebook, post an outfit, win a £50 voucher. Everyone in it always looks terrible though. | http://www.endclothing.co.uk/ |
| Farfetch | High | Online, sourced from boutiques around the globe. | http://www.farfetch.com/ |
| Flatspot | Low | Streetwear. seasonal sales are good. | http://www.flatspot.com/ |
| FUSshop | Low | Online. Streetwear - some good items, but pretty small range overall. | http://fusshop.co.uk/ |
| Goodhood Store | Medium | Online, London. Recently opened a homeware store too, has a cool range of brands. | http://goodhoodstore.com/ |
| H & M | Mall/Fast fashion | Its not the worst for the price. Some stuff looks good. | http://www.hm.com/gb/ |
| The Great Divide | Medium | Online. Fairly small range, but has good sales and frequent discount codes. | http://thegreat-divide.com/ |
| Hackett | http://www.hackett.com/ | ||
| Harrods | High | Very renowned retailer. Mostly high end clothing. | http://www.harrods.com/ |
| Kafka | Medium | Online, Aberdeen. Similar range of brands as End Clothing, but more focus on heritage type clothing rather than streetwear. | http://www.kafka.co.uk/ |
| Mr. Porter | High | The male version of Net-a-Porter. Designer clothing from Givenchy, Prada, Alexander McQueen, Loro Piana, etc. | http://mrporter.com/ |
| Mandon | http://www.themandonstore.com/ | ||
| Massimo Dutti | http://www.massimodutti.com/ | ||
| Next | Mall/Fast fashion | For cheap clothes the construction is decent. Occasionally have nice items but do not spend too much here. While some times they make alright looking trendy clothes they aren't the most 'hip' brand. Chinos/Jeans fit like shit. | http://www.next.co.uk/ |
| Oi Polloi | Medium | Online, Manchester. Originally focused on the 'casuals', has now developed and become one of the premier menswear stores in the North. | http://www.oipolloi.com/ |
| Pull and Bear | Mall/Fast fashion | http://www.pullandbear.com/ | |
| Ralph Lauren | Mall/Fast fashion | Overpriced for the quality, has some decent pieces but are often ruined by rampant branding. | http://www.ralphlauren.com/ |
| Reiss | Medium | Mostly menswear. Quite similar to Ted Baker. | http://www.reiss.com/ |
| River Island | Mall/Fast fashion | Extremely similar to TOPMAN; possibly worse. | http://riverisland.co.uk |
| Selfridges | High | Very similar to Harrods. Mostly stocks high end pieces but also sells mid range items as well. | http://www.selfridges.com/ |
| Stuarts London | http://www.stuartslondon.com/ | ||
| Ted Baker | Medium | Menswear and womenswear. Mostly known for large variety of high quality shirts and dresses. The polos are nice but the quality may be dubious at times. | http://www.tedbaker.com/ |
| Topman | Mall/Fast fashion | Similar to ASOS it tends to be hit and miss, however they do have a good returns policy and if you avoid the typical 'lad' items (usually t-shirts with pop culture references) and it should be decent. Their Stretch skinny jeans and chinos stretch out quite a bit. Suits and blazers are great looking especially considering the price | http://www.topman.co.uk/ |
| Uniqlo | Low | Online, London, possibly other cities too? Great for the price, but don't buy your whole wardrobe here or you'll look boring as fuck. Has detailed measurements for all it items online. | http://www.uniqlo.com/uk/ |
| Urban Outfitters | Low | Decent clothes, a little more on the expensive side of fast fashion. Use discretion - some pieces are wildly overpriced for the quality. | http://www.urbanoutfitters.co.uk/ |
| Zara | Mall/Fast fashion | Notorious fast-fashion retailer. Jumps aboard every trend's bandwagon and mass produces their own knock-off versions. Poor quality clothing for cheap. Generally very slim-fitting. Not awful if used sparingly. | http://www.zara.com/ |
