A little B-Store knowledge to get you going...
Designed in house by co-owners Matthew Murphy and Kirk Beattie, the b Store clothing collection represents stylish basics – something classic with a modern edge and ultimately, the completing items of your wardrobe.
The duo first crossed paths in the early nineties with Matthew as a menswear buyer for a contemporary fashion store and Kirk as the proprietor of his own boutique. They quickly became friends and shared a common interest in the fashion and music scene – with views they felt were quite different to their peers.
In 2001 Matthew met José Neves – an independent brand owner who was keen to launch a London-based footwear label, and the brand was born. Since, Matthew and Kirk have become the face of b Store, working inside the boutique and designing its collections. They draw inspiration from their mutual interests in art, music and film, in particular musical icons such as the late ’70s Berlin-influenced David Bowie and ‘80s post-punk bands including Joy Division and the Human League.
If you've ever pondered the idea of experimenting with different coloured footwear - or even a different shape - now is the time to do so. This collection of footwear is bringing men back to their sartorial hey-day! Check out this photo on the Sartorialist - wearing the right shoes completes any outfit lads...
