Quick Nickel Clothing is a Vancouver fashion boutique that was founded in 1989. They sell clothing for both men and women and various accessories.

Quick Nickel Clothing offers a diverse range of women’s clothing, including t-shirts, cardigans, bottoms, dresses, and lingerie. They also have a large selection of plus-size women’s clothing.

In our opinion, this shop is ideal for buyers planning to buy clothes for traveling. This is because this shop has a wide selection of trendy apparel that we think suits any weather.

Unfortunately, they only have a small selection of women’s hoodies, but they make up for it with their jacket and coat collection. In addition, they also have jewelry and accessories available.

In terms of men’s clothing, we noticed they have minimalistic styled t-shirts and tanks, which we think are perfect for lounging and the summertime. They also have a large selection of shorts for casual, beach, and fitness wear.

The best thing about Quick Nickel Clothing is that they offer free shipping for all orders over CAD 100 for British Columbia and Alberta residents. 

This establishment is also open seven days a week to accommodate more customers. We also found it convenient that they accept numerous payment methods. 

Overall, we think Quick Nickel Clothing is one of the best clothing stores in Vancouver as they provide a stylish selection of men’s and women’s clothing.

Kildare Curtis decided to open his own clothing store, Eugene Choo Clothing, after many years of working as a vintage clothing dealer on the West Coast.

We were immediately impressed by the fact that they have a wide selection of branded apparel and accessories made by local designers. 

We also appreciate that they include a brief biography of the local artists they feature, as we believe that supporting locally-made products helps the local economy thrive.

Another thing we liked about them is that they have a wide variety of items on sale every day. Customers can also shop from the comfort of their own homes using their online ordering system, or they can visit their store.

Now, we were a little disappointed by their limited inventory. This is due to the fact that their online store shares inventory with their physical store, which affects item availability.

Even so, we appreciate that they offer free shipping on orders over CAD 100. We also like how they provide gift cards that can be used on any product in their store and have no expiration date.

All in all, we highly recommend you drop by Eugene Choo Clothing, located at 3683 main street. They sell men’s and women’s clothing at an affordable price without sacrificing style and comfort.

Customer Reviews

Wonderful and timeless selection

“I love this shop. It’s small, yet their selection is wonderful and whoever is in charge of merchandising– bravo! The items I have purchased here are unique and timeless and have lasted for a long time. They’re pieces I’ll probably pass down to to family members who I know will take care of them when I’m an old, old lady. Prices are quite high, but you’re really getting what you pay for. If you’re on a budget, they have a warehouse sale annually where I’ll be damned if you don’t find something that you love. The staff is extremely kind and it’s just an overall delight to shop at. Bonus: it smells *amazing* in there like… all the time. I have found that sometimes their prices are just slightly above what you can find elsewhere. Personally, I’d rather support local, kind folks and I hope this shop remains a Vancouver gem forever. Besides, see that point I made about the warehouse sales. Save all that money you would otherwise spend on fast fashion and come here for quality, beautiful pieces. Your closet will thank you!.” -Michelle N. 

Friendly staff

“I’ve gotten genuinely friendly customer service here and no pretentious fashionista vibes as opposed to a lot of other local boutique shops I visit that sell higher priced items. There’s always more than one thing that I find here and end up purchasing with no regret even if I’d gone slightly over budget!.” -Carmela L.

Established in 2008, Vincent Park has been offering classic and contemporary style clothing and accessories for women. 

What we liked best about Vincent Park was their laid-back and chic clothing style. We also liked that they have numerous designs that can fit almost all client preferences. 

This business offers a wide selection of women’s clothing, hats, footwear, accessories, jewelry, and branded apparel. 

We liked that all of their branded clothing collection features neutral shaded colors because we think they are pleasing to the eye and blend well with anything.

But it’s their body care collection that sets them apart. Botanical oils, probiotic cleansers, hand soaps, and manicure kits are all available at Vincent Park.

Another thing we found convenient and unique is that customers can choose to pick up their orders at their Mount Pleasant studio, which is located at 163 W 4th Ave, Unit 2. 

We also found it useful that they provide a pick-up day schedule so that clients know when they can come in to pick up their orders.

We also felt it was important to mention that customers praise this shop’s customer service because they go out of their way to expedite orders. The staff also assists customers in selecting suitable clothing.

Despite only selling women’s clothing, we thought Vincent Park deserved a spot on our list because they have an impressive curated collection of apparel and accessories.

Top-notch customer service

Blue Sky Clothing was founded to provide women with ethical and comfortable clothing. Since then, the business has expanded to provide diverse and inclusive clothing to men and women.

In our opinion, Blue Sky Clothing is an accessible clothing store as it has almost all sizes available, and they don’t charge any additional fees for plus-size clothing.

In addition, they also have over nine store locations in British Columbia where customers can shop. They also offer pick-up and delivery options. 

What we liked best about Blue Sky Clothing is that they use eco-friendly fabrics like bamboo to make their products. They explain that bamboo is their preferred fabric for comfort because it is naturally moisture resistant, anti-bacterial, and hypoallergenic.

Aside from apparel, Blue Sky Clothing also sells home decor items such as hand carvings, puzzle boxes, and wooden ducks for display.

Now, we were a bit bummed that they don’t sell children’s clothing as we think this would’ve been a great addition to their store’s expansive collection. We were also slightly disappointed that they only have a limited supply of men’s shorts.

Despite that, we still think Blue Sky Clothing is one of the best clothing stores you can shop at in Vancouver as they provide clothing and accessories that are both fashionable and eco-friendly. 

Customer Reviews

Great selection of high-quality apparel

“I love Blue Sky Clothing.  My whole closet is full of great clothes that fit very flatteringly.  I have 6 pairs of different black comfortable dress and casual pants. They match well with my large selection of tops and sweaters.  All their clothing is so versatile and never needs ironing.  I have always had a a bigger back than most women and carry most of my extra 20 lbs on my stomach area and Blue Sky clothing fits me perfectly. You don’t even notice my tummy in their clothes. There are many types of styles so you can pick what you like. I am not that much of a print style person so I stay with the basic one color tops and pants.  I even have their bamboo underwear and socks.  Of yes,  they also have a great selection of necklaces which I am proud to own three of.  Their cowhide wallet is still in great condition even after 4 years of constant use.  I give Blue Sky clothing two thumbs up and a 10/10 rating.” – Angelika O.

Wonderful material and knowledgeable staff

“Fantastic experience: great clothing well made from wonderful materials, fantastically knowledgeable and helpful staff. If I lived in the city, I’d be back often.” -Marnie S.

Urbanity offers women’s clothing that is both comfortable and sustainable. Their collection includes beautiful designs from Scandinavia, Europe, Canada, and other international designers.

What distinguishes them is that they collaborate with designers who incorporate tradition and history into their work. We also liked that they have a wide selection of ethically crafted pieces that are eye-catching and one-of-a-kind.

In our opinion, the diversity of apparel that Urbanity offers makes them unique. Their inventory ranges from tops, dresses, bottoms, outwear, hats, scarves, and many more. 

Aside from that, Urbanity also sells jewelry, wrist warmers and gloves, and accessories.

We appreciate that they have items on sale daily, ranging from 25% to 40% off. With that said, we were a bit disappointed that they don’t offer free shipping.

This company has only one office location, but customers can shop in-store or on their website. In addition, Urbanity only sells women’s clothing.

Despite this, many customers we’ve spoken with have commented on their lovely clothing choices because they are high-quality and easy to wear.

If you’re looking for unique apparel, we think Urbanity is worth visiting for your next shopping spree, making them one of the best clothing stores in Vancouver.

Wonderful selection of easy to wear clothing

“Beautiful selection of Danish styled clothing made from New Zealand merino wool, unusual cottons, and distinctively Scandinavian fashions that are easy wear but with flare!  A gem of a store with warm, personable service.” -Jeannie S. 

Charming facilities

“Urbanity is hands down the number one store to find quality linen clothing. They have a large selection of dresses, tops, pants, anything you want in good linen, you’ll find it in Urbanity. The store is one of the most charming stores I’ve been in, and there isn’t an item I don’t love.  The owner personally picks out every thing in the store and her taste is impeccable.  I highly recomend Urbanity, even if you don’t buy you must drop in and just see it, its worth while.” -Viola E.
