NYLA Fresh Thread We're a locally owned men's clothing & accessories store in the heart of Downtown Nanaimo. Est. 2014. Hi, I’d like to introduce myself.

Mission Statement:

NYLA Fresh Thread is; YOUR VANCOUVER ISLANDS DESTINATION FOR MENSWEAR. My name is Leon, owner principal of NYLA Fresh Thread. I’m born and raised in Nanaimo and over the last few years have seen the lack of locally owned menswear in our area. NYLA Fresh Thread is a new upstart men’s fashion retailer that expects to lead our local market in business, casual, contemporary menswear with a price range to fit any budget. We have created a man driven environment that gives our clientele a comfortable place to relax and shop in style. NYLA Fresh Thread is about confidence, the confidence to live up to the fine traditions of past merchants, with styling and quality. We represent exceptional quality, good priced, well known trusted brands that our clientele is currently traveling outside our local market to shop for. NYLA Fresh Thread prides themselves on carrying a great selection of small and multinational Canadian brands and companies, with products still made in Canada. We carry a wide selection for men of all ages, with good pricing and sizes from S-3X, long or tall. From; jeans, t-shirts, golf shirts, sweaters, cardigans, chinos or khakis. Too; dress shirts, dress pants, sport jackets and all the accessories; ties, bow ties, belts, suspenders, cuff links, etc. Our company shares its current address 206 Commercial Street with well over 50 prior years of formal gentleman’s haberdasher, starting with Ken Thompson Menswear in 1957 for 42 years and Rickwood’s Menswear for over 10 years. We are sharing in this tradition of family owned and operated menswear downtown Nanaimo. NYLA Fresh Thread will follow in the traditional menswear before us but by keeping menswear fresh and evolving with the fashion thread trends in our global community. I’d like to personally invite you to our store at 206 Commercial Street, downtown Nanaimo. We are an independent family owned and operated menswear store downtown Nanaimo. Please help us build awareness, tell all your friends and family, word of mouth is our strongest marketing, I’d like to personally Thank you for your continued support.
