Hey, so I saw the best Mexx post and that inspired me to make this, the best Winners. Ive been to my fair share of Winners, but i have never seen any "designer" items. So which Winners do you think has the best selection?

you aren't looking around much are you? every time i go there i see good stuff. just last weekend i was there i saw things like fendi, diesel, sfam, corpus, also some like ed hardy. other times i've seen g-star, prps, nudies, and in the summer they have pretty nice sunglasses there...that's like the only winners i like going to cause they always have nice stuff, they usually carry a decent collection of designer jeans there

how many times did you go last year? pretty hard to place judgement if you only visisted once. its all about timing at winners IMO.

Exactly.

There's no such thing as "this Winners carry more designer stuff". Most likely they'll get scooped up regardless if they look crappy or not.

I've been going to Winners for years now and it's a hit or a miss.

One thing I can advice is that don't go to the small branches e.g. Queensway

I tend to find big scores when searching for something not typical to an area. For example, if I'm in the mood for some ghetto rocawear or ecko, the Woodbridge location isn't bad. However, if I'm in the mood for some parasuco or whatever, the Rexdale location is where I go.

With that said, I've had the best luck at a Winners on Centre Street in Richmond Hill. Also, great luck in Montreal.

In Niagara Falls, NY, there are 2 versions of Winners: Marshall's (almost identical to Winners) and AJ Wright. Both are great, AJ is more for ghettowear but also has the most ridiculous markdowns. I picked up a limited edition Rocawear sweater last weekend for $20, suggested Rocawear price on the tag: $450. No lie.

Picked up Giorgio Armani sunglasses (ladies) this past summer at a small one in RH. Made my day. I think it was the Centre st one :D.

If you're looking for designer clothing, I'd suggest one of the following:
- Vaughan mills (huuuuuuge)
- College park
- The ones in the financial district (Scotiaplaza, and another on Front)

Ones that I avoid (never found anything good, went many times):
- Gerrard square
- Spadina & King

The 'Yorkville' one that people are referring to is the 5-level flagship on Bloor right?

If people are looking for designer brands, then go to a winners with a Runway Designer boutiques section, those tend to have more name brand selections, such as DKNY, RL, CK, Guess, etc. Usually, not super high end brands and products but better than the norm, I guess.

I go to the Winston Churchill Location, its right by my house...whats the boutique section? Is it just on the woman's side, because the men's side isn't much different from other Winners that I go to.

I've had the most luck at the College Park location. I've never been able to find anything nice at the Yorkville one.

They are just brand specific racks, should be in both mens & womens side.

I've seen premium desginers at Winners that have Runway locations. They have carried Gucci, Burberry, Missoni, Coach, Rock and Republic, True Religion. You just have to go at the right time. These items always go fast.
