Cult Clothing

The name of the shop automatically gives the impression that there is a certain target audience for its products, almost like a ‘cult’ following. Located in the city centre this store grabbed my attention as it looked very fresh and appealing.
The stores big fashion label is Super-​Dry which is known for its extremely fashionable and hard-​wearing clothes. However as with all big names and brands comes and even bigger price tag. The jacket I bought cost £50 and this was on the sale! However as jackets go I have to say that it’s pretty decent. I think I’d only come back here if I had a bit more money to spend or if I got a gift voucher for it. And my birthday is in August. Just if anyone out there was thinking of sending me something.
Anyone?
Overall, I’d recommend this shop for young professionals who have money to spend and want the latest brands and university students who have a loan to spend.

Cult is a store that looks kinda cool from the outside but fails to deliver.
The clothes are pretty bog standard. The mens selection is infinitely boring. Superdry, superdry and yet more superdry. Its all hoodies, jeans and stupid t-​shirts for Sk8er Boi’s.
The girls clothes aren’t much better. There are some cool skirts and dresses (my taste in clothes is so vast and all encompassing I can usually find something, no matter what the shop that could possibly go with something else I have and make another small but steady contribution to my impending bankruptcy) anyway, yeah so some of the stuff is quite funky but I really wouldn’t shell out the prices they’re asking.
An emperors new clothes kinda place.

Cult should really just be renamed Superdry store, because that’s all they seem to sell now. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with superdry, but sometimes a bit of Variety is nice, especially as they used to sell some really nice bench stuff too. My boyf loves this shop, and has been a superdry fan forever, but now it seems to be the kind of place that attracts the pretentious pretty boys bound for the box on a Saturday night. The prices are very high, and you would struggle to get a T-​Shirt for less than £25! Also, we went in to look for pair of ¾ length combats to discover them priced at £45. really, there is no need folks!

A few years back Cult was notorious for being overpriced and full of narcissistic staff looking down their noses at you but at least they did stock some more unusual and unique brands (By Belfast standards I mean).
Pottering in the other day I was assailed first by the dour doorman and secondly by the blazing techo. Suitably disorientated I did a quite circuit of the shop and realised that the shop had turned into ‘The Superdry’ store… everything was branded with the Superdry logo! I’m no big fan of branded clothes at the best of times but this was quite ludicrous and quickly became depressing.
Slightly more depressing was the fact that a security guy oh so unsubtly ‘tailed’ me round the whole shop. I imagine I have quite an honest face but I can assure you this is a sure fire way to get this customer to leave and never return.
Really disappointing. Sort it out Cult.
Pros: Well, if you love Superdry.
Cons: Well, if you hate Superdry.

There is something undeniable pretentious about Cult, I’ve always felt it and things haven’t yet changed.
I hate the Super-​Dry brand they sell. The world und his mutter sport this over rated, over priced nonsense about the city and I don’t get it, have some originally people.
The king of the nonsensical slogan… «SuperDry Club 68» that kind of thing, I’ve always had a few suggestions such as «Chernobyl ’86» or «Nagasaki ’45» although I’d say they have a little air of insensitivity about them.
Prices are insane. I think the store is very aware you can trawl the net or browse outlet stores for the same items but buying from them gives you a certain level of kudos that money really can’t buy.
No.

When Cult opened I was pretty excited! We all thought it was going to be an alternative clothes shop which was a little bit less home-​made than the others in town. Sadly, it wasn’t. Cult sells a lot of brands that people consider cool or trendy, such as Superdry. The price tag on which ever item you’re looking at is enough to cause you to black out, which is why I presume they play the music so loudly that you wake up. It’s set over two floors, guys ground floor and the girls 1^st floor. They also sell trainers and accessories, which are also so massively overpriced they hurt your eyes to look at. Their security look almost like bouncers at a bar and are most of the time just as rude.

What the heck happened this place? It used to sell all the clothing brands that were so hard to get in Belfast like Road and Atticus. However, I went in here recently to find myself something to spend my money on, and it has all gone. Now they sell exclusively SuperDry clothing. It is one massive shop that sells pretty much 1 brand of clothing. Already you can buy SuperDry clothing in House of Frasier, so why they decided this was needed I do not know.
The women’s floor is a little bit better. I have, upon occasion, be brought up her to give my opinion on a dress or pair of jeans, and it looks at least to sell more than SuperDry, though I have to say not much more.

I was never cool enough to even wander into this shop, let alone by anything from it when I was younger. My super-​cool friend was always popping into to purchase ‘Bench’ trousers, coats, hoodies, tops etc., but I always stared on in awe of a) the prices b) the prices. Blimey, they weren’t half expensive!
So, dandering into ‘Cult’ today, after many years was quite strange really. ‘Bench’ has been replaced by the new label on the block, ‘Superdry’, and the clothes are much girlier and… well, nice, really. It was a surprise. Both pleasant and not quite so. Pleasant because ‘Cult’ was a haunt for the goths and emos during my teenage years, so floral tops and colourful hoodies made a heck of a difference. Not quite so because of the copious number of ‘Superdry garments’, to the detriment of everything else. There were a few (make that *very* few) other labels which were a good deal cheaper than the £34.99 Superdry vest top (which, might I add, has an identical twin sister in Primark. Scary).
Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with ‘Superdry’, and I would quite like one of their hoodies (hint hint… my birthday is in 2 days), but when it takes over and lessens the variety, there is something wrong. After all, it is ‘Cult’, not ‘Superdry Central’.
In saying that, ‘Cult’ is a very pleasant shop, and the clothes are really lovely. There is a huge variety of garments, and it’s well stocked too. I’m still not too sure if I’m cool enough for it mind you…

Cult is one of my favourite shops. For girls who hate dresses and skirts and want baggy jeans and Superdry jackets, this is the place to go. You really can’t go wrong with a pair of jeans or trainers from Cult. Having said that, it is quite expensive so customers who shop there are either rich or have enough of a love affair with the store to not mind spending £25 quid on a t-​shirt or £50 for a pair of jeans. If nothing else, the clothes are of really high quality.

Really expensive. Totally extortionate prices for brand names that I really don’t agree with. Also, I don’t like that I can never see any bigger sizes here either, which is a shame as if something was nice enough and actually fitted, then I would definitely be more tempted to buy, despite the high prices. The staff are helpful and very friendly, there are ample changing rooms which some stores do lack, and the staff are always really trendy and well-​dressed — a good advertisement for the store of course, but I really don’t like how bloody loud the music is. I came in here with my Mum and she had to go back outside because she couldn’t stick it. I don’t know how the staff aren’t all half deaf! Worth going to if you don’t care about getting a bargain.

I’m not a big fan of this store, although I do shop in it now and again. It is very expensive. Sometimes ridiculously expensive. Some t-​shirts can be 40 – 50 pound. The names are good however and for those looking to load up on the latest trends this is the place to do so. Also a decent selection of footwear and other little items like belt buckles, shoelaces, hats, scarfs etc. The music really annoys me. I can barely hear myself think in here, they need to turn it down! Sometimes you fill items reduced at more reasonable prices. Plenty of changing rooms and the staff are friendly.

Bench/​animal/​superdry are the main labels you will find here. the clothes are stunning but very expensive and to be honest not always the best of quality but that really depends what you are buying. hoodies here are great — sooo comfy and often with thumb holes in the sleeves ^_^ (please excuse my fondness for these, i don’t really understand it myself)

The clothes in here are lovely, a lot of brand names but can be quite expensive! A big selection of products & good for the fashion conscious. Fashionable sassy staff & they give lovely carrier bags. Music blaring out everytime you walk past.
