Made in small numbers
Independent fashion around Brick Lane sits between studio work and street wear. Think small labels, limited drops, and shops that back their own point of view. It’s less about seasons, more about what’s on the rail right now.
Independent Fashion
KIN Store London
KIN trades on Brick Lane at 131 Brick Lane, and also has a spot inside Brick Lane Vintage Market at 85 Brick Lane. The edit mixes vintage with reworked vintage, backed up by sunglasses, hats and other accessories. The feel leans colourful and early-2000s in places, with plenty of smaller pieces that work as quick add-ons alongside the rails.
SCRT®
SCRT® (Stay Creative Co.) is an independent London streetwear label with a flagship shop on Redchurch Street, a short walk from Brick Lane. Started in 2010 as a self-funded project, it still works closely with artists and creatives, releasing small-run capsules. The clothes lean utilitarian: box-fit silhouettes, cut-and-sew workwear references, simple fabrics and detail-led construction, with themes pulled from cult films and odd corners of media.
Folk
FOLK is a London label founded in 2000 by Cathal McAteer, built around “style without drama”. The clothes sit in that premium everyday lane: clean silhouettes, strong fabrics, and subtle trims that show up in the small decisions — buttons, stitching, linings, texture. Collections cover men and women, often borrowing from workwear without leaning on loud branding. Alongside seasonal ranges, the brand also runs collaborations that bring in artists and other makers.
Sunspel
Sunspel’s Shoreditch shop focuses on pared-back essentials: T-shirts, polos and underwear, alongside menswear and womenswear. The brand dates to 1860, founded by Thomas Hill, and still manufactures from its own Long Eaton factory. It’s often credited with bringing boxer shorts into the UK mainstream. A calm space, with a rotation of collaborations and guest brands.
UJNG
UJNG is a compact Redchurch Street shopfront with a changing retail edit that suits a quick browse or a purposeful stop. The space is small and straightforward, built around limited floor stock and a tight selection rather than endless rails. Worth dropping in when you’re already doing the Redchurch loop—new pieces can appear and disappear quickly.
Wear London
Wear London is a small Hanbury Street store with a curated, minimal shop floor—more showroom than department store. The selection tends to rotate, so it rewards repeat visits and a slower look at what’s currently in. Handy for picking up a single piece without getting stuck in a long browse, and easy to pair with nearby coffee stops.
