London menswear Sales 2012: Soho
Here are a few of the menswear sales now on in London’s Soho. Soho is interesting because a number of independent menswear stores/designers are based in Soho and they are producing some interesting casual clothes.
Sunspel
This is the new Sunspel store in London’s Old Compton Street Soho, which opened in early November 2011. Sunspel are an English brand with a very good history. As a brand they are known for making fine cottons, including underwear, and good knitwear. Previously they sold their clothes through department stores and concessions but now they are selling through this their own (very nicely designed) shop.
There are some good bargains in this store, especially a range of fine wool sweaters at around 40% discount.

Aqua
A new store and a new brand(around 18 months old, very cult, very hip right now. And a really good collection. Things to buy here are their beautiful skinny jeans, (up to 50% off) designed to perfection. However the top buy has to be their quilted black jackets. These are a re-designed version of an English quilted jacket, but cropped off short and cut tight and slim. Superb, stylish and sexy, in the sale. A must-buy.

Liberty
From the new and the cult to the very big. The Liberty sale is always a very good one, because they sell so many cutting edge menswear brands. I browsed this sale and there are great discounts on edgy brands such as Kris Van Asche, Dries Van Noten, DSquared, Paul Smith and others. As you will see from the picture below there is a huge amount in the sale with some substantial discounts.

Nico Didonna
New designer with some really interesting ideas. Each collection here is very individual, with some great original menswear ideas. A couple of seasons ago they had a modern club take on John Wayne cowboy shirts, which were trulydifferent, clever and stylish. This is a good sale, but the menswear collection is small, so go to this one as a priority.
