Man’s World

My boyfriend who is the only male I have wandered in her with, is not one of Mens World’s few fans. I am not sure I can envisage who would wear an outfit head to toe from Mens World.
I find it hilarious walking round the shop putting random clothes up against my discontented boyfriend and telling hom how swell he’d look in them. Never gets old, sometimes I even try them n myself.
Mens World is much better than I am making out, I think it is just the fit of the clothes isn’t that good for guys who put a little effort in. That meaning the sleeves aren’t made in just that shape that hugs the bicep! and they are just a bit box shaped.

There is something decidedly sweet and endearing about this place. Even though, it looks rather past it and has a strange mix of stock; it is, I reckon, the handiest and most decent male clothes shop on Byres Road. It has good quality materials and this is reflected in decent — not taking the pee — prices.
However, my main YAY! for this shop does come solely from an experience which happened a couple of weeks ago. The boy’s mother came up to Glasgow for the day and while I was hard at work, they went for a stroll. On this stroll, the boy was bought some brand new, spanking clean socks by his mother.
Not, really the kind of thing I would normally make a big deal of. But for the past month he’d been wearing either socks with massive holes in them or purple thermal numbers of mine. Who knew a pair of new, clean black socks could be so so sexy?

I can’t help but feel this shop would do a lot better if it changed its signage. I mean, a blue background with tacked on gold letters? This is 2010 not 1972.
However, Man’s World does remain one of the handiest clothing outlets on Byres Road on account of its stock of uniforms for nearby schools. Confusingly, despite what you would assume to be a fairly self-​explanatory name, it also does well through the renting of dresses.
As for the fashion, well i have to be honest and say I’ve only ever bought socks from here. Good socks, admittedly, but I’m not sure the quality is matched by the rest of the stock which appears to be a little tired and dated. Worth a look though for every day essentials.
