Upstanding Citizen


If you have been paying attention then you already know that there are a few new faces breathing some much needed life into a few of the villages around town. Cook St. Village has always had a certain curb appeal to the young and trendy and, in the last year, Fernwood Village has been amping up it's cool factor with some amazing cuisine and culture. Hot on their heels is the soon to be stylish Estevan Village... I know what you're thinking... where??

Estevan Village has long been home to Paprika Restaurant (a local favourite) and very little else. But that is all starting to change thanks to a few new local innovators like Patrick Tier ( formerly of Outlooks for Men). Patrick's newest incarnation is called Citizen and it's been getting quite a buzz.

The store is as well designed as the clothing they sell and it's evident that the owner has spectacular taste in haberdashery. Armed with a "bring the mountain to Mohammed" attitude towards it's unusual location, Citizen is leading the way in what we hope to see as a growing trend in well executed community based businesses.

So, if you are on the search for something to give the style savvy the man in your life... we highly recommend this place.
