The Best Menswear Stores In Melbourne

Named after the historic district in Paris, Marais is a sleek boutique specialising in luxurious French fashion houses, including Kenzo, Balmain, Givenchy, Balenciaga, and Lavin, among others. The original store in the Royal Arcade, which once housed both men’s and women’s fashion, now caters exclusively to men, with the women’s boutique located on Bourke Street. If you’re looking to add a rare item that defies trends, then look no further than Marais.

Whether you’re after a limited edition, one-of-a-kind fashion find or staple item to fill in the gap, head to Incu in Flinders Lane. After launching their Sydney store in 2002, twin brothers Brian and Vincent Wu brought Incu to Melbourne. Short for incubator, Incu houses an eclectic range including Vanishing Elephant, Paul Smith, Acne Studios, A.P.C., Comme des Garçons, Kloke and more, plus a huge range of accessories and lifestyle products. The interior is fuss free, and the staff provide down-to-earth customer service.

From Converse to Vans, Norse Projects to Hancock, Up There Store serves up a healthy selection of casualwear from across the globe, including work wear from French brand Vetra and Japanese crafted socks from Anonymousism. Born in 2010, Up There Store is easy to navigate with its modernist design, and it now has three convenient Melbourne locations.
