Manchester fashion brand bound has announced plans for a brand-new flagship store in the heart of the Northern Quarter.
Marking the menswear brand’s first physical retail location, the store will house bound’s core collections within a ‘clean, immersive environment designed to reflect its evolving identity.’

Founder Jake Messer says he wants the space to be more than a traditional retail store, instead creating a community-focused destination where the brand can connect directly with its customers.
“I’ve always wanted to open a brick-and-mortar store in our hometown of Manchester, a city that has given me so much,” says Messer. “I’m excited to give something back to the city through a retail experience that feels unique to bound and the community around it.”

The 150-square-foot space features a double-fronted storefront and retains a number of original architectural details dating back to the early 1900s.
The launch is being supported by sponsorships from the likes of Estrella Damm, MOTH Cocktails, and Living Things. bound also plans to collaborate with a range of local businesses as part of its ongoing commitment to championing and celebrating Manchester’s creative community.
bound’s Northern Quarter store will open to the public on Sat 13 Jun at 10am.
