the garbstore
The lower ground floor sees Ian Paley's menswear brand, "Garbstore" come to life with a cutting edge collection of classic unfamiliar vintage items and accessories.
The philosophy of the Garbstore label is richly ensconced in the history of clothing produced after the Second World War and draws influence from what can be coined "Unfamiliar Vintage", familiar garments that reference the past but with a modern edge. For example jeans and trousers are tailored with fifties grip tape, all buttons are Tri-hole and sweats and tees follow vintage models. In essence pieces are re-imagined and made "historically new".
The Garbstore also sells a selection of casual and reproduction clothing from cult international labels such as Rittenhouse, Mountain Research, Post Overalls, Bedwin & The heartbreakers, shirts and accessories by Engineered Garments and shoes by Terrem and Pointer, many of these labels exclusive to Couverture & The Garbstore in the UK. Garbstore collections are available in our online store.
The culmination of Couverture & The Garbstore's unique style being showcased under one roof has guaranteed Couverture & The Garbstore's status as a favourite haunt for both fashion and interiors stylists, as well as for the discerning customer.
