What is the Stussy brand?
Stussy is a California based brand that sells streetwear style clothes and accessories with a laid-back, stylish aesthetic.
Starting off in the 1980s, Stussy influenced many subcultures such as skateboarding, hip hop and surfing.
They were one of the first brands to sell caps and varsity jackets that were not explicitly designed for sports teams which is what made them stand out from the rest.

Here in Margate you can take a look at the evolution of Stussy with hand picked, exclusive, vintage and past products as well as hard to find items that have come out of the warehouse and are back in store for everyone to enjoy once again.
In this treasure trove, they believe that clothes should be worn and loved, not hidden and thrown away and they pursue this by giving us access to iconic, rare, collectable items that may not have been available for a while.
