"The longer you leave Christmas shopping, the more it feels like a chore, and the less likely you are to find presents that you're happy with. There's still more than a month to go until the big day, so this is your sign to start thinking about what to get your loved ones right now. Our top tip for finding the best present? Bypass high street chains and browse one of London's hundreds of brilliant indie shops instead."
"Every east London trendy worth their salt knows Goodhood. Opened in 2007 by streetwear obsessed couple Kyle Stewart and Jo Sindle, it originally lived on Coronet Street for seven years, then moved to Curtain Street before relocating to a larger space by Spitalfields Market. Now, the 5,500 square ft shop sells a deftly curated collection of clothes, shoes, accessories, beauty and grooming products, homeware, audio equipment and fancy camping gear from brands like Stussy, TEKLA, Studio Arhoj and Tabi."
"If you don't get a chance to visit Goodhood's bricks and mortar store, you can always purchase its stuff on its website instead. Rosie Hewitson, Time Out's things to do editor, advised: 'If you want to be ahead of the curve when it comes to streetwear-influenced fashion, be sure to keep tabs on the brands represented here; Goodhood has a knack for stocking interesting indie brands that go on to become major labels.'"
Christmas shopping becomes more difficult the longer it is left, and unique presents are easier to find by exploring independent shops. London has many indie retailers offering specialized gifts, such as London Graphic Centre for art supplies, Next Door Records for vinyl and Daunt Books in Marylebone for books. The Goodhood Store at Spitalfields Market, opened in 2007 by Kyle Stewart and Jo Sindle, expanded from Coronet Street to Curtain Street before moving to a larger 5,500 sq ft space. The store offers a curated range of clothes, shoes, accessories, beauty, homeware, audio equipment and camping gear from brands like Stussy, TEKLA, Studio Arhoj and Tabi. Online shopping is available.
