Brooklyn Clothing

Brooklyn Clothing has been a fixture in Kensington, Calgary, since 1989, and it remains an independent Canadian menswear shop with a clear point of view. Japanese denim and heritage workwear sit at the heart of the edit, with selvedge from Samurai Denim, Iron Heart and Omoto Denim, and boots from makers such as Wesco, Buttero and Il Bisonte. The labels lean towards durable, characterful pieces: Bleu de Chauffe and Simmons Bilt for workwear, Kamakura Shirts and UES for woven fabrics, and White's and The Flat Head for classic boots and Japanese workwear.

The team offers knowledgeable, personal service, which suits anyone buying a first pair of Japanese jeans or a pair of boots built to last a lifetime. Everything is chosen for its materials and construction, and for its ability to develop character with wear.
