Aphrodite

In 1994, Aphrodite was established by two brothers, Andrew and Duncan McKenzie, who had a passion for bringing good menswear to people in their city. Since then, they have been providing designer clothing from a range of high-quality brands that have large scale appeal to those who love fashion such as Stone Island, Canada Goose, DSquared2, Kenzo and Balmain – though that list is not exhaustive as they have clothing from every brand from A-Z. They also have a great range of shoes and trainers (or sneaker, to borrow a term from our American cousins). Accessories are also a key part of the products offered, from the best in men’s socks to wallets, hats, phone chargers and the now ubiquitous face masks – so you can stay safe and stylish at the same time.

While they started local, the world has grown since 1994 and the development of the internet has made the world flat. Now, it is possible to purchase the amazing clothing from Aphrodite via their website and supplying these great brands to customers wherever they live. Whenever you buy from Aphrodite, they want to ensure that you have the best experiences possible and keep this this at the core of what they do as a business. In fact, their core vision is ‘supplying the best products and the best customer service’ – with their approachable, friendly, and knowledgeable team able to help you while you shop, both in-store and online, this is a key part of the experience you will have shopping with Aphrodite. If you are interested in the most current and up-to-date information from Aphrodite, they are highly active on their blog showing the newest in clothing and updates in the wider fashion industry from years of personal knowledge and experience. They also are active on their social media for direct messages so you can find out all about specific products.
