It's definitely a unique space that you should be checking out.
ISTO
ISTO, nestled in Lisbon's eclectic Alfama district, is a haven for those seeking contemporary Portuguese style and yet another sustainability conscious Lisbon store.

Arches Global
A (fairly) newcomer to Lisbon's fashion scene, Arches Global has quickly made a name for itself with its cool basics such as t-shirts, totes and hoodies. It's a must-visit for streetwear enthusiasts looking for excellent quality and versatile pieces for their wardrobes. Interestingly, Arches Global not only sell their own apparel designs but are actually first and foremost a merch and custom manufacturing business. They produce high quality 'blanks' which other brands can put their brand and design stamp on and sell on to their own customers. Arches Global believe brands are only as good as their factories so part of their mission is to enable their customers access to the finest quality factories in Lisbon to produce really great apparel. Aside from this, they sell their own Arches Global branded clothing that is worth snapping up.
