WHEN we dropped in to interview Paul Jerome at Talisman Menswear, we were shocked to find him in an exhausted heap slouched upon a chair in the corner, stock draped across him as he snoozed. The poor bugger had been working so hard on the gorgeous new renovations; half-dead, he had to rush to get changed into something presentable for the interview.

Scanning the new store, you can see that so much love and sweat has been poured into the passion project. It’s something Paul has envisioned for almost 12 years and he is excited to be finally able to present his spectacular stock in a way he’s always wanted.

The store is now fully decked with excellent exposed brick and gorgeous crates sourced from local orchardists expertly utilised throughout. The store now boasts a uniquely rustic charm that also feels markedly modernist.

Ready for summer, the new Talisman Menswear is fully stocked for the celebratory season. Spacious enough to enable comfortable browsing, the store is fitted out with a great range of suits, ties, hats, shoes and all kinds of smart casual and formal wear.

Once fed with coffee and awoken from his sluggish slumber, Paul Jerome said, “I’m very pleased to be able to finally present fresh new stock in this roomy new location.

“I must give a warm thanks to all my customers for their patience throughout the renovation and I’m so appreciative of all the kind words from those who have already visited the new store.”

Visit Paul Jerome at his spacious new location at 78 McLennan Street, Mooroopna to pick up that perfect Christmas gift or give the store a call on 5825 5170.
