Here's where to get it fixed at 44 Stanley.
Denim revivals at Ifuku
Ifuku gets its name from the Japanese word for clothes and its easy to see why when chatting to the owner Rodney Mudzengerere. His deep knowledge of the materials and history of the clothes he sells means that almost every item on sale has a story behind it. Rodney specialises in denim and while his store sells rare vintage and selvedge pieces he also offers denim restorations and customisation knowing that few things can top a pair of jeans which have been through it all with you.
Smooth sounds at Mr. Vinyl
Brett Dugmore and his team at Mr. Vinyl have been involved in all things vinyl since long before its recent return to the limelight. This means it's not only a great spot to get records but also that you can get turntables repaired, advice on maintenance, and records cleaned of all but the most set in scratches. Bring that old turntable you inherited or thrifted, and after a quick evaluation, they'll be able to tell you what's wrong with it and how long it will take to fix. When collecting, bring any old vinyls in to renew them at their cleaning station.
Custom shirts at Five8ths
Don't leave the house in an ill-fitting shirt when you can get a custom-made shirt from Five8ths. Their exquisitely tailored shirts are made in house and they have a range of high-quality fabrics to choose from to ensure you get the perfect shirt. Whether its a casual everyday shirt or one for a special occasion Five8ths have you covered.Fine-tuned tailoring at Land of Kin
Land of Kin sells bespoke menswear from their store at 44 Stanley and every item purchased can be altered by James the tailor to ensure it fits just the way you want. You are also able to bring in any clothes or suits for alterations and James' sharp eye for fashion means a far more careful approach than a simple stop at Levingers.
Green thumbs at JFF Plant Shop
JFF Plant Shop began in Braamfontein with a Rooftop Farm and the store in 44 Stanley allows for a more customer-focused approach. Starting an urban farm is no small task and when chatting with owner Ash and the rest of the team at JFF its easy to see why they were able to succeed. Their knowledge of the plants they grow is second-to-none and if you're struggling to keep that delicious monster you received as a gift alive they'll be only to happy to help.Perfectly framed at The Atelier
The Atelier sits in the back corner of 44 and is the place to go for framing photographs and artworks. With a deep understanding of archival framing processes, you can be assured that the frame is not only going to bring the best out of your picture but that it will last for many years to come. They offer great advice on a range of pricing.
