Canali Corner - Harry Rosen

Boboli

2776 Granville St, Vancouver, BC V6H 3J3

While this high-end men’s and women’s boutique could be right off of 5th Avenue in New York, it’s equally at home in Vancouver’s South Granville neighbourhood. With designer labels, styles and prices for the mature set, Boboli offers a range of exquisite, well made ties from a selection of fine fashion houses. Sales clerks are delighted to take their time with you and help you choose the perfect one to suit the occasion and your personality.

Neighbour Shop

125-12 Water St, Vancouver, BC V6B 1A5

Impeccably stylish with very little effort — this is the vibe conveyed at this Water Street men’s store. Crisp, casual and neutral but embellished with subtle design flair — a denim shirt in ombré, colour-blocked sweatshirts, unique buttons — make every item sold here a strong long-term investment for your closet. Ties are no different. Cotton or silk ties in plain pastels or masculine large, diagonal stripes fit right in at either the law office or the summer garden party. One more element adding to your effortless style.
