Istanbul has seen quite the wave of young entrepreneurs and designers who create everything from hand-painted axes to the perfect T-shirt. We explored the best places where you can get your hands on these lovely items.

1. Tru Project

Shop

The perfect T-shirt is what has made Tru Project a favorite among Istanbul’s young and stylish. What more can we say about the super soft T-shirts in muted colors that seem to fit the body so perfectly? You’ll want to buy them in every color available. Also make sure to check out the other clothing varieties such as skirts, shorts, and sweatshirts. ‘Perfect basics’ indeed (for men and women).

2. Bey Karaköy

Shop

You’ll feel like you’ve wandered into a Kreuzberg boutique when you happen upon Bey Karaköy, where a male-only collection focuses on the most hipster of hipster aesthetics. The shop provides modern basics, leather backpacks, colorful socks, and even a collection of independent magazines, all on sale in a very minimalist interior. Also, you will be supporting local designers with your purchases.
