“At Eastwood Ave. we are dedicated to inspiring men to look great and be confident in what they wear by sourcing established and emerging brands from around the world,” says owner Steve Walsh. After moving to Prince Edward Island in December of 2007, Steve began to notice that it was difficult to find the European menswear brands he loved. “We are proud to offer a wide range of established and emerging brands from around the world, with a nod to British and European fashion. We carry brands from the UK, France, Denmark, Japan, Portugal, Canada and USA, amongst other countries. The majority of the brands we carry – we’re the only stockist east of Montreal.” Despite the challenges of the pandemic, he has fulfilled his vision for Eastwood Ave., as people discover some of the brands and styles that had not been available locally on PEI and indeed throughout the Atlantic provinces. “We have been thrilled to see how keen Islanders have been to visit and shop and explore new brands,” says Steve.
Eastwood Ave.’s brand portfolio includes Fred Perry, Universal Works, Armor Lux, Veja, Far Afield, Edwin, Gramicci and many more, as Steve and his staff continue to seek out the latest styles and trends, season after season. For Spring 2023, they’ve already added Nudie Jeans, Italian-shoemaker Astorflex, You Must Create and Battenwear to their brand roster, with more in the pipeline. More and more people are becoming aware of the limitations of buying “fast fashion” and instead are choosing clothing, shoes and accessories which are well made and intended to last. “We curate the best brands in men’s clothing that are not only great looking, fit well and fun to wear, but are also produced responsibly by companies who pay fair wages and use high quality fabrics and construction.” Happily for those shopping for Christmas gifts for the special men in their life, Eastwood Ave. is open seven days a week. Steve and team look forward to your visit to help select that perfect gift.
