I suppose this is not the appropriate place for my tantrum, so let's move on. This store comes across as a little of a disorganised jumble, but once you get past that you realise that it actually stocks a lot of well-known brands. Basically any form of men's clothing you are after, you can find here. There is work wear, formal wear and casual wear, along with lots of the most popular surfing brands. When I was there it was busy, full of men of different ages attempting to withhold the right to choose their entire wardrobe from their wives. Even though I didn't particularly like the setup, the staff were courteous and helpful, and there's no denying there was a lot of good stuff to choose from.

I first went to David's Mensland years ago, because it was near my then work. I'm a bit on the…read morecheap side and don't usually wander into shops unless there's a sale on and I have to say I've picked up some great bargains for my Dad and partner there at times - like a couple of Italian dress shirts at about 75 percent off for under $30 each; golf shirts, jeans... there's always something on the racks outside. That's the grown up side of the shop. then there's Cylinder Surf Cleveland, a more recent addition to the store. They are adjoined, so you walk from one section to the other internally, but what a difference. Cylinder Surf is for guys and girls, and is on the corner of Bloomfield Arcade, so long windows on two sides are filled with cool surf gear. I like the summer and winter sales, when I've picked up some great Roxy gear, boots, bags, jumpers, tops, at really good prices. The range of stock is good for a relatively small store.

They can also help you with suits, ties and cufflinks, but the main focus is quality Italian shirts for men and women. This isn't really a store for me, but if you're into business shirts (and why wouldn't you be?) I'm sure you'll find their expertise more than helpful.

Great for Christmas shopping! Very classy retail shop for casual and formal mensware…read more DBS is great for those particular men in your life, family or otherwise, when you simply do not know what to give them as a gift. Nice and classy. They have high quality accessories and some great brand names like Tommy Hilfiger, Ben Sherman and Levi's. I bought a really nice black collared dress shirt for my partner. The only small thing I would say is the atmosphere in store is a little like a library. Very quiet and lots of brown paper hues. This could be because I am not hugely familiar with buying men's clothes and the experience is really different to the bubbly female stores I usually frequent. On the plus side, they have a handy alteration service!

From sports gear to business, casual and even formal wear, the big name brands are here and the prices are pretty competitive. DBS even has formal hire, which I haven't used, but I have bought presents for the partner and father here, from belts to golf shirts and board shorts, and the staff are really helpful.

This place stocks fancy styled business and smart casual attire for a pretty casual price which is exactly what we all like. Sure the quality isn't top of the line, but to be honest, no one will know but you and whoever you blabber mouth to. It's a great concept that all men will appreciate.. now they can buy something for that formal event... wedding, black tie.. New Years Eve party and not worry about the damage it will cause to their bank account. They have a great range of ties and belts as well if you want something to match up and look cool. Very cool little guy store... it's fresh because it's not for your skate boarder type or Jay Jay too casual type.
