Founded in 1999, as a discount shop for luxury brands; Surplus was way ahead of its time with its affordable luxury concept. With a focus on denim brands and casual sportswear; the boutique was holding sample sales before everyone and their grandmother jumped on the sample sale bandwagon.
Making its home on St-Laurent street, the shop took on the vintage-vibe of neighboring fripperies; with a worn-in, lived-in feel that is typical of the Plateau. In turn, Surplus catered to its stylishly clad neighbors, filling its walls with one-of-a-kind samples and damages (a little hole in the seam never scared anyone).
Today, Surplus remains the locale for multi-designer sample sales. Counting several boutiques in its roster with locations in Saint Sauveur and Mississauga. Now a haven for men, women and kids alike. The shops stock a multitude of sought after brands including Diesel, Juicy Couture, Seven Jeans, Scotch and Soda, Miss Sixty, True Religion, Splendid and Ella Moss.
Stop by one of their shops, you might be surprised with what you find.
