On Friday, November 7th, Vancouverite Jeff Martin launched his latest retail store called Freshmans, which is conveniently located downtown Vancouver along Robson Street. Those in the city know that Jeff Martin also owns another local store called Dipt and has been up and running successfully since 2000.

So why another store under a different name? Well, quite simply put, Freshmans is for the grown gentleman. Carrying brands such as Bruxe, Canada Goose, Crooks & Castles, Hot Air, Levi’s, PRPS, Reigning Champ, Staple, Stussy Deluxe, Converse, Gourmet and Clae to name just a few. The lines that are carried will be more simple with a back to basics approach while helping you look fly and not like a kid will all over prints.

Check out the beautiful photos of this store, as it definitely has that gentleman’s polo club type feel. For more info check out http://freshmans.ca/.

Dipt was the first in Canada to do Canucks logos on New Era caps years ago. This package has 4 caps, 2 original stick logos with the logo in the original colorway. One with a white body and lime visor and one with a black body with scarlett visor and 2 original skate logos with the logo in original colors and one cap with a royal body, black visor and orange undervisor and the second with a green body, black visor and orange undervisor. These are available now exclusively at Dipt in Vancouver at 819 Hornby Street. www.getdipt.com.

These are 3 new colorways of the ever popular VC logo Vancity Original Cap. There is the black body with purple visor and white VC, the navy body with scarlett visor and white VC and the white body with cardinal visor and white/orange VC and cardinal blue new era logo. These are available now exclusively at Dipt in Vancouver at 819 Hornby Street or hit up their website at www.getdipt.com.

These caps are new colorways of 2 Vancity Original New Era favorites. The cardinal blue with purple and white Vancity cap is a ltd edition colorway and also comes in classic white with red and black and black with red and white with the 604 hit on the back. These caps mark the end of an era as New Era will no longer allow area codes due to various law suits incurred in the US regarding ownership of area codes and supposed gang affiliations. The 604 has been an integral part of all Vancity Original designs and will be missed. The black and grey with red accents VC Vancity Original cap was produced to coincide with the release of the Jordan Collezione 19/4 pack and is a must have for anyone with the OG J4’s and the forrest/green VC cap is a new colorway sported recently at the Pemberton Music Festival by N•E•R•D member Shae. Look out for many more New Era designs and colorways and matching tees from Vancity Original this summer.
