With 10 years of experience in covering the best in men’s fashion, our editors have come together and created a list of the best menswear stores in Sydney. You’ll recognise names like INCU, Maplestore, and Supply Store, we’ve gone so far as to include lesser-known spots that stock Japanese workwear, Americana, streetwear, in-house labels, and plenty of designer options. Sometimes, it’s hard to know where to start, with what feels like a minefield of different brands, shops (online and offline) and opinions on what’s in season, and what’s not. So without further ado, these are the men’s fashion stores in Sydney.
Best Menswear Stores in Sydney at a Glance
Highlights from our list include the following options:
- Best menswear store in Sydney overall: Maple Store
- For modern menswear: INCU
- For suiting: Mister Mister
- For streetwear: Supply Store
- For designer labels: Parlour X
- For Japanese and Americana: Blue Works Men’s Clothing
- For an in-house label: Charlton Studio
Now we’ve had a look at our favourites, let’s check out the complete list.
1. INCU
Still the best menswear store in Sydney, an innovative, personable and unique experience is what you get when you shop at INCU. This has been a favourite of ours for years, and the much-loved Australian brand focuses on designer labels that you often can’t find anywhere else. INCU first hit our radar for their selection of Comme Des Garcon PLAY, but we ended up walking out the door with everything from Stone Island to Jacquemus and Auralee. Whether Australian or from overseas, the brands rotate regularly to help keep the selections fresh. Our favourite store if you’re still in the process of building out your style, INCU has a great selection of modern menswear, and you’ll find everything you need right here.

2. Maplestore
A staple of Newtown and Balmain, Maplestore has a curated selection of the best menswear in Sydney if you’re looking for workwear-style pieces. You won’t find suits here, as the store has a focus on brands that are pragmatic, made well, and from labels you won’t find anywhere else. Favourites of ours include orSlow for denim jeans, Pendleton for button-up shirts, and Danner for boots. While other men’s clothing stores in Sydney focus on high fashion or hype beast brands, this clothing store for men focuses on quality brands that will last forever.

3. Big Trouble Store
Drawing inspiration from vintage Americana, military and heritage pieces, Big Trouble Store is the place to go if you want hard-to-find pieces from Japan and the USA. While there’s some brand crossover with Maple Store, Big Trouble is our go-to men’s clothing store in Sydney for Nepenthes umbrella brands, such as Needles, South2 West8, and Engineered Garments. However, they also have some of our favourite quality basics from Lady White Co. and Knickerbocker.

4. Above The Clouds
Above the Clouds has been one of our favourite menswear stores in Sydney since they hit our radar back at their old Oxford Street location. Perfectly bridging that gap between the classic styles found at Maple Store and Big Trouble, they put more of a focus on refined skatewear and sneakers. Boasting a line-up of brands, our favourites include ERL, John Elliot, thisisneverthat, C.P. Company, Awake NY, and Noon Goons.
Address: Shop 8/285a Crown St, Surry Hills NSW 2010

5. Blue Works Men’s Clothing
You can’t call yourself a menswear aficionado if you’ve never made your way down to Darling Square and checked out Blue Works. Stepping inside is like going back in time. If you’re after a more traditional workwear aesthetic in Sydney, this is the store for you. We love Blue Works’ curated selection of Japanese and American workwear, think of brands such as Nigel Cabourn, and you’ll catch our drift. One of the only places in Australia to stock some of these brands, we can’t go past the likes of Iron Heart, Fullcount, Red Wing, and Mister Freedon. Maybe the most surprising thing is the pricing, pieces are very fairly priced when you take exchange rates and importing into account.
Located in: Darling Square
Address: Shop 10/1/19 Little Hay St, Haymarket NSW 2000

If you’re a fiend for vintage Japanese threads, look no further than 108WAREHOUSE. Located in the semi-industrial suburb of Marrickville in the inner-west, this awesome little shop stocks all the new and vintage brands and designs you could ever dream of. Plus, they even have a coffee cart to help fuel all your shopping. You’ll find past season styles that we never received Downunder from brands like South2 West8, And Wander, Needles, Comme Des Garcons, Porter, and Yohji Yamamoto to name just a few.

7. Corlection
Simple and different, Corlection is one of the best menswear stores in Sydney if you’re in search of quality denim and leather. Their brands have a strong Japanese influence, with the likes of Momotaro, Red Wing, Loopwheel, Stevenson Overall Company, First Arrow’s, Lewis Leathers, and Samurai to just name a few of our favourites. We like to think of this store as the intersection between Blue Works and Big Trouble Store, it’s a great place to shop if you’re hunting for men’s clothing stores in Sydney CBD.
Address: G/503-505 Kent St, Sydney NSW 2000
Hours: Mon-Sat 11am-6pm, Sun 12-5pm

8. Chinatown Country Club
Finding the intersection between designer and streetwear, Chinatown Country Club is what happens when you combine the likes of INCU with Harrolds. The resulting brands are some of our favourite high-fashion streetwear options in Sydney, think Andersson Bell, Kiko Kostadinov, Eckhaus Latta and Rhude.

9. The Standard Store
The Standard Store is a great mix of the best modern menswear, offering brands you’ll struggle to find anywhere else. Scouring the globe for the best in clothes, we love the selection of brands that includes YMC, Universal Works, and Haulier. We think this store is best described as the intersection between Maple Store and INCU, but above all, these folks know how to find a brand before it hits the mainstream.
Address: 431 Crown St, Surry Hills NSW 2010
Hours: Mon-Sat 10am-6pm, Sun 10am-5pm
Phone: (02) 9310 1544
10. Supply Store
We’ve been going to Supply Store for the better part of 10 years, and while we find ourselves returning for the rare and sought-after sneakers, there’s a great selection of streetwear brands on offer for men as well. Some of our favourite brands include Comme des Garçons, Neighbourhood, Palace, Reebok, Vans and WTAPS. It’s also worth noting that this is the only store in Australia to sell Supreme at retail prices, not resale. Keep an eye on Supply’s Instagram account and get ready to run (not walk) to the store if you want to grab some.

11. P.A.M. Store Sydney
We used to head upstairs to P.A.M Store (Perks and Mini) when they sat right above Supply on Riley Street. These days, the brand resides around the corner on Palmer Street in Darlinghurst while offering the same great shopping experience. Originally from Melbourne, you’ll find their own brand Perks and Mini sitting alongside our favourites such as Stray Rats, WTAPS, Cav Empt, and Aries, along with Snow Peak accessories, toys, gifts, and even books.

12. Five By Flynn
Making some of our favourite camp collar shirts in the Harbour City, Five by Flynn is a friend of Man of Many’s and they’re taking on the world stage. We love their retro vibes and selection of bright colours. Also one of our favourite Australian fashion brands, this label is defined by laid-back cuts, casual but curated products and quirky designs. We love their cotton shorts – so comfy, versatile and perfect for the summer months.

14. Stussy
Not to be confused with ‘Stussy Australia’ that you’ll find in the likes of General Pants Co. the flagship Stussy store in Sydney is home to a truly timeless (and completely different) collection of high-quality pieces that blend Carharrt workwear with a Supreme aesthetic. The iconic street-wear brand is our one-stop shop for hoodies, tees and casualwear. And while the price points are higher than your average menswear brands like Polo Ralph Lauren or Carharrt themselves, the Stussy logo has become an internationally recognised emblem at this point.

15. Carhartt WIP
Another popular brand, Carhartt WIP (Work In Progress) is a division of the American brand Carhartt, and the brand is all about durable, comfortable clothes for men. Originally a workwear brand, their selection of clothing and accessories offers a continuation of these roots, resulting in practical, sturdy clothes that also look, we think, very cool.

It houses pieces from the in-house label that includes Woolmark-certified Merino garments and Japanese-sourced fabrics. If you’re looking for great button-up t-shirts, check out their signature camp collar shirt that’s constructed in 100% Japanese cotton seersucker and features signature large buttons and a boxy and cropped cut. Alternatively, the trousers are top-notch, including the straight-leg Pleated Pant that’s made from 100% Japanese cotton sateen and is hand-sewn at the brand’s atelier in northern Japan.

20. Pieces Boutique
Pieces Boutique is Sydney’s ultimate stop for all the best designers, with a focus on Japan and Paris regions. The store houses brands such as Heron Preston, Mastermind Worldwide, Palm Angels, and Yohji Yamamoto so expect prices to be higher than those at INCU. If you couldn’t find the ideal piece at Harrolds, head over to Pieces because there’s a good amount of brand crossover between the two menswear stores.

They’ve won just about every major Australian retail fashion award you’ll find, including ‘Best Australian Retailer’ by Australian Fashion Laureate and the Prix De Marie Claire Award for ‘Best Australian Boutique’. However, we’ve always known them as a great menswear store for designer options. Look for brands like Dries Van Noten, Craig Green, JW Anderson, Bottega Veneta, Sacai, Junya Watanabe, CDG, MM6 Maison Margiela, Raf Simons, and more.
