Top Man (Shop)

Advantages: Good range of fashionable clothes, student discount, up-to-date and affordable
Disadvantages: Risk of cloning

...a nightclub, wearing the same top as your mates! DON'T BECOME A CLONE To avoid this dilemma, which in my opinion applies more so to girls than blokes, I simply shop for clothes at alternative shops. The kind of shops that yes are more expensive but you get the guarantee of originality, which in this day and age is priceless. ... Read review

Advantages: Good Shirts
Disadvantages: Poor prices, Poor Quality, unfriendly Sale tactics

...an annoying marketing scheme that Top Man have imployed to get you into buying their clothes (and this is only one of my negative points). if you have visited this store in january you will notice that they put big green (or other various colours) labels on the coat hanger saying £10 or £5- this usually gets me interested in what they have to offer especially trousers (which i will come on to later). On trying to purchase an item of clothing you ...
...had the same problem in Top Shop and some of my friends have as well noticed this tedency for Top Man to put these prices on just to attract the customers. i beleive this to be false advertising and very unfair. That was a specific point, but in general Top Man can supply good quality but heavily priced items. The trousers, as afor mentioned, can be heavily priced and even sale price will not bring them down more than £3-5. this much for a pair ... Read review

Advantages: Fashionable and affordable
Disadvantages: Not for the over 40s really

I tend to become obsessive about clothes stores. First it was Gap; what I saw as the epitomy of cool (hey, I can make a mistake!). In the last year or so my attentions have shifted to Topman, and now rarely a day goes by where my clothes are not complimented by a Topman t shirt, pair of trousers or long sleeved top. The recent untimely emission by the Managing Director of Topman, stating that the typical customer belongs to the laddish, hooligan-esque ...
...also not true. I firmly disagree with his notion, 'cos let's face it, I'm no yobbo! And looking at the clothes in stock, it is not exactly the butchest of ranges! It's more, dare I say it, on the camp side if anything! Topshop, the female counterpart, was voted fashion retailer of the year last year and in my humble opinion its more maligned male offshoot definitely deserves the same recognition, and I'll tell you why. More so than the other leading ... Read review

Advantages: Affordable prices, Great range of clothing, Friendly staff and welcoming stores
Disadvantages: There are not enough Topman stores!

Trendy, innovative and damn sexy… TopMan/TopShop is part of the Arcadia group that also owns Burtons, Miss Selfridge, Wallis, Evans and Dorothy Perkins. Topshop and Topman are aimed at the ‘younger’ fashion market, which ranges from teenagers to twenty-something’s. Recent reports show that profits have surged by 60 per cent over the past six months for the second largest retailer in the country. Sales at Topshop and Topman ...
...Much of Topman’s present success is down to the fact that they are providing young males with a wide variety of clothing for all occasions at reasonable prices. They have targeted a market where their only other main competitors are Next and River Island. The Arcadia group that owns Topman closed many branches of the store in recent years as a widespread restructuring project. However, now, I feel there will be many more Topman stores opening ...

Advantages: Some stylish cutting edge clothes at affordable prices / something for all tastes
Disadvantages: Everyone else has it too...

...Anyway i find that Top Man has really got its act together & has a huge range of clothes. Personally i love the 'Moto' range which is quite cutting edge & a little more pricey than their usual stuff. They even have imitations of Prada items but they are a bit hit & miss & u can't help thinking "what on earth were THEY thinking?"! Another range they have is the streety / indie kid range which has some quite hip & funky items. Also don't miss the ...
...think the main strength of Top Man for stylish shoppers is that they get top trends & versions of designer items in really quickly. The downside of the shop's popularity is that u can walk down the street and spot lots of people wearing the same item. Flagship Store This one u must deinitely visit, it's situated on Oxford Street & is HUGE! It's so big that'll u'll definitely find something u like. Service in here tends to not that good, i find ...

Advantages: Clothes
Disadvantages: Spending Little Cash

...only a few of the street styles. If you are a skater don’t bother visiting the store, unless it’s a shiny, clubbing shirt you‘re after! The stores location is ideal in the middle of town and is excellent, if you wish to combine a visit here with all your other shopping. But the lack of choice, styles and sometimes sizes, in the women’s section. Bring the store down to a poorer level. It’s small nature means it is unsuitable for people with wheelchairs or prams. I am also unsure how a disabled male would reach the top floor. All in all I found this store of a great chain very disappointing and a disgrace to the Topshop name.... Read review

Advantages: fashionable clothes, plenty of choice, good qulaity clothing
Disadvantages: quite expensive

...Top shop is a high street fashion shop, and a very popualr shop at that. There are two parts to top shop. There is top shop which is for women and then there is top man for the men. The shops are usally together, like one upstairs and one downstairs or joined together. Top shop sells:- clothes shoes accessories like belts, hair clips, etc. The clothes are quite expensive though compared to some other clothes shops, but the clothes are of good quality though, so you do not mind paying a bit more for them. I bought a skirt from there and it cost me £25 which is quite expensive really for a skirt. The shop is fairly small but they still sell a wide range of items and you have plenty to choose from. Topshop sells fashionable clothes and you find a lot of teenagers and young adults that shop here. Top shop sells... Read review
