Accent is a leading retail destination for pinnacle contemporary, designer, and lifestyle brands for women and men. Established in 1984 in the heart of Leeds, Accent started out as a local Denim and Outerwear specialist and quickly became known for its expert fashion knowledge and clear shopping experience. As the brand evolved, Accent is today a global retail destination, recognised for its clear-cut Accent-aesthetic which can be explored through curated collections of iconic and new exciting brands, both in the flagship store and online.
The business was founded in humble beginnings in the North West in 1983. At this time, owner Richard Free would spend his week gathering stock by hunting at flea markets and church sales, travelling down to London each weekend to sell the clothing at Camden and Greenwich markets. Following the expansion and success of the first few Pop Boutique stores, as well as the wholesale business, we began to create a new line of clothing to sit alongside our carefully selected vintage pieces and keep up with the demand for certain items. The first Pop Boutique collection began with cord and denim flares and went on to sell out many times over. This line has since expanded to a twice a year 20-30 piece collection to fill the gaps in demand of the vintage clothing. Our Leeds store was the next to open in 2008 and can still be found at the same location today.

Dr. Martens now-iconic air-cushioned sole was designed by a German inventor, Dr. Klaus Maertens. But while their sole may be German, their soul is undeniably British. British shoe-makers, R Griggs and Co, bought the rights to that air-cushioned sole. Added in the iconic yellow stitch and grooves. Fastened the scripted heel-loop. And set about flogging these 8-eye boots to workmen. But fate intervened. Dr. Martens may have been made for industry but, as it turns out, they were destined for the stage. Subverted early on by subcultures, they paved the way for a new kind of rebellious self-expression. From the punks of 70s London to the grungers of 90s Seattle, Dr. Martens have always stood with those who dare to be different. Subcultures may fade out and evolve but their alternative spirit is a constant.

In 1853, Levi Strauss, an immigrant from Bavaria, opened a dry goods company in San Francisco at the height of the California Gold Rush. While he was working, he recognized a need among hardworking people: clothes built to endure anything. He and tailor Jacob Davis combined copper rivet reinforcements with tough denim, leading to the first manufactured waist overalls in 1873. Today, they call them "blue jeans."
