Oi Polloi




Manchester's premier men's clobber and accoutrement shop, Oi Polloi, now stocks Sideburn. They sell a load of other good stuff like Barbour, Tricker's, Fjall Raven, Victorinox knives, in fact, just about everything a fella needs (except steel shoes and full-face helmets). This is their mission statement.

'Oi Polloi was started in 2002 as a reaction to the mass of bland, uninspiring men's fashion stores lining the UK's high streets. With sports shops becoming lowest common denominator fashion shops and shoe shops becoming trainer shops, Oi Polloi decided that it was time for a change. With a vision of putting together the ultimate selection of classic, functional outerwear with innovative contemporary labels and a serious arsenal of casual footwear, Oi Polloi was born.'
