If you have a pair of shoes that need a new life then this is the place to take them. I usually take my new shoes here to get a sole which is always done with such precision. I also have a pair of boots which have been rescued more than a couple times by these guys meaning I've got now three winters instead of one out of them. Their craft isn't necessarily limited to shoes either - I had a tired leather bag that I got dyed which brought it back to life for another season. The service is always friendly here - they'll go out of their way to try and do something to a specific time frame if you need it. Overall it is a pleasure to do business with these guys - I highly recommend them.

Harrolds. What is there not to love? Beautiful clothes, friendly atmosphere and wonderful staff -…read moreHarrolds seems to have it all! This store was originally near Martin Place before relocating too much larger premises in Westfields Sydney. The new store is absolutely amazing. The fit out is breathtaking and definitely up to world standards (think Opening Ceremony in Tokyo or Colete in Paris, only slightly more conservative in aesthetic). The product assortment is beautifully curated. The last time I was there the lady that served me was really helpful. I was looking to buy a shirt. She showed me the whole collection and explained the differences in each of the shirts. Her knowledge of the products they sell was incredible. They take a very service orientated approach to sales, which I love. They even offered me a cup of tea or coffee while I was viewing the collection. I will definitely be coming back. Very highly recommended.

Onituka Tiger is a Japanese Clothing design company best known for their very popular footwear…read moreline, no gym would be complete without people everywhere wearing these shoes. Onituka Tiger pride themselves on making products of high quality and this attention to durability is to be respected if you are making shoes. The Bondi Junction Onituka Tiger store in Westfield offers their full range of clothing products and cleverly in their displays throughout the shop they coordinate their clothes with their footwear to show you what has been designed to suit each other. I would rather make these choices for myself and try to avoid wearing an entire outfit consisting of one brand name, Although I like Japanese design, these clothes are not so much for me, but I do very much like the shoes.

It's pricey, there's no getting around it, but there's some pretty sweet gear here if you're in the market for new kicks or some bad-ass jeans. They've got all the usual suspects - Converse, Lee, Wrangler, Nike Air, Henleys (WHY Glue WHY, Henley's couldn't design their way out of a wet t-shirt contest, it demeans your whole brand). Pro tip: wait for their quarterly sales, drop some plastic and save mad bucks.

It is a great place for kid's shoes of all other kinds. Great set up for fitting shoes. Kids sit on high steps against the wall so a staff member can measure them and fit the shoes. Kinda like Best Buy in the States-- you have to make an appointment. Unfortunately, due to heavy rains here in Australia for the last two weeks, there were no boots left in the size we needed. On to the next store!

Absolutely needless worry as, once we entered Man About Town Suit hire, David had him fitted, styled and all was simply 'tickety-boo'. David worked like a magician as he fitted, stylised and adjusted. The first thing we said as we left the shop was 'Wow; that was so easy' and that is why I am giving Man About Suit Hire five stars - the experience was painless and seamless. David was also generous and warm.

Albert got us all measured up and when he realized that my dad's pants would need hemming he hemmed them right there in front of us- for a RENTAL! Not only did he hem them immediately, he also ironed the entire tux. As if this was not already amazing customer service, he also picks up your rental from your hotel's concierge if your flight schedule is chaotic- for no extra charge! And wait, there is more. We were expecting to pay for a multi day rental as we picked up today (12/28) and need it for NYE. Nope. Just the flat fee for the tux. The price came out to be roughly $125 USD/person. This is comparable, if not cheaper, to what I would pay to rent a tux in D.C. for a wedding. The icing on the cake is that these tuxes are arguably better made than anything I have ever rented as a groomsmen. 10/10 would recommend Albert!
