A family-run independent retailer bringing together heritage brands, timeless style and genuine customer service since 2013.
Welcome to Empire
When you shop with Empire, you're shopping with a real, family run, independent business, not a warehouse with a logo.
Since opening our first store in Kent in 2013, we've built a reputation for carefully selecting the very best heritage menswear brands from around the world. Today, with five stores across Kent and thousands of customers shopping online, our passion remains exactly the same.
We believe in quality over trends, genuine customer service and clothing with a story to tell.
A Real Store. Real People.
Nothing builds trust better than knowing who's behind your order.
Every order placed on our website is picked, packed and dispatched by our team from our own stores in Kent. If you call us, email us or message us on social media, you'll be speaking directly to people who know the products inside out.
We're proud to still be the sort of shop where customer service comes first.
Heritage is in Everything We Do
The brands we stock aren't chosen because they're fashionable today.
We choose them because they've stood the test of time.
From Sergio Tacchini's tennis heritage to Fila's sporting legacy, Gabicci's iconic knitwear and Trojan's roots in British music culture, every collection we stock has earned its place.
Our stores are filled with vintage memorabilia, classic sports references and music-inspired displays because we love the history behind the clothes just as much as the clothes themselves.
Carefully Curated Collections
Every season we personally visit the brand showrooms, hand-picking collections we believe our customers will love.
Rather than stocking thousands of random products, we focus on pieces we'd genuinely wear ourselves.
That means classic polos, premium track tops, quality knitwear, tailored suits and footwear that never go out of style.
More Than Just an Online Store
Whether you're looking for casual weekend wear or a three-piece suit for a special occasion, our experienced team is always happy to help.
