We’re always looking to build on what we already have by adding new brands to The Garbstore roster - each with its own story to tell.

The Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star returns with a premium update in the First String line.

Available in three new designs in Men's and Women's, First String is limited to just a handful of select stockists across Europe, including Couverture & The Garbstore. 

TDR returns for AW25 with a collection that champions genre-less British design, revisiting signature styles and introducing new silhouettes shaped by fabrics sourced across Japan, Scotland, and Canada.
