North West is best! Our two favourite Oregonian brands have collaborated to create the Poler x Pendleton collection, featuring Pendleton’s traditional Journey West pattern in unique Poler Stuff colours. It includes classics such as Poler’s original Rolltop, The Rucksack, Napsack and Two Man Tent, as well as a Pendleton Blanket and oversized Beach Towel. Shop the collection in our Boxpark store or online now!

The lovely Suzie McCracken came to interview me for Cooler Magazine for her feature about women who run outdoor businesses. Read it here, “Love the outdoors? Meet the women making adventure into wildly successful businesses“.
She took these photos of me in the shop too. Thanks Suzie!

We now have an in-store Fjällräven Waxing Station! We can wax Fjällräven G1000 jackets and bags while-you-wait on weekdays. We are not able to wax on weekends as it gets very busy, but you are welcome to drop off your item and collect it during the week.
Waxing is free-of-charge for items bought from us, simply show us your email receipt.
For items not bought at The Brokedown Palace there is a £30 charge for jackets and £20 for bags.
Waxing a whole jacket takes around 30minutes.
Please note waxing is not suitable for Kånken backpacks, except Kånken No. 2 (which is made from G1000 fabric).
We have moved into Boxpark’s flagship units formerly occupied by Nike! Come and see us at Units 37-41 right by Shoreditch High Street Station.
Brands stocked in-store include Fjällräven, the Swedish brand known for their iconic Kanken backpack – which takes up an entire wall of the store in every conceivable colour. The American north west is represented by Pendleton, Poler Stuff and Filson. Ethical Californian outdoors brand Patagonia is a recent addition, and fits the concept perfectly.
Also stocked are Australian surf/motorbike brand Deus Ex Machina, Bellroy wallets also from Australia, Makia Clothing hailing from Helsinki, and Stance the cult sock brand from LA.
Our Boxpark neighbours, Moo have blogged about our transition to bricks ‘n’ mortar (or metal ‘n’ nails!) in our new container store.
Read all about it: ‘Shop talk with The Brokedown Palace‘
We have opened a store at the Boxpark pop-up mall in Shoreditch. Boxpark is a shopping mall made entirely of old shipping containers – perfect for our cabin vibe.
“The Brokedown Palace is the only place in east London to stock the cult Swedish outdoors brand, Fjällräven, including the brand’s iconic Kånken backpack and its sought-after Greenland Winter jackets. Other brands in store include Pendleton, Out of Print, Sitka, Makia and North Sea Clothing.”
Come see us in Unit 24!
Our new business cards have arrived! Designed by super talented illustrator William Exley, who has done all our branding.
