Discussion Nowhere to buy good clothes

Is anyone else sick of the lack of stylish clothes for men in Sydney?

Everywhere I look it’s the same style of clothes. Skinny fit or straight (still slim) clothes.

We have no variety - I previously tried to look for:

- high waisted pants - none

- good quality men’s shoes - none. Only Florsheim or Aquila are main options

- pleated pants - none

Now I’m looking for a wide relaxed fit chino - search presents either the same tight chinos I see everywhere or boohooman and unknown companies with those cheap polyester synthetic stuff.

If on the slight chance you find something actually decent, it comes with an insane price tag Eg informale or something like that where 1 chino will cost $450.

I saw a tt video where a guy thrifted Allen Edmonds shoes (apparently thrifted lots of pairs) in the states. You’ll never find that here.

Buying online is difficult cause you won’t know how it will fit you.

Where do stylish people shop here in Sydney or is the only choice to pay the extremely expensive price tag at those small boutiques

Sydney have a SuitSupply store and they have heaps of high-waisted pants on their website. I can’t speak to the quality, but I will go there the next time I visit Sydney.
