The Topologie Soho Store marks the brand’s third London retail location and expands the Franco-Japanese label’s presence in the city. The Topologie Soho Store is located at 79 Berwick Street in Soho, placing the climbing-inspired accessories brand near cultural destinations such as The Photographer’s Gallery, Chinatown, and Oxford Street. Founded in 2018 by climbing enthusiasts from France and Japan, Topologie designs modular bags, straps, and accessories influenced by mountaineering gear and everyday urban functionality.
The store showcases the brand’s Topologie Wares System, which allows customers to combine interchangeable straps with bags and cases to create customized carry setups. More than 100 rope-inspired straps can be paired with modular accessories, producing over 1,000 possible combinations. The interior uses pegboard displays and scaffold-like metal structures to reflect the brand’s climbing heritage, while extensive under-counter storage supports the modular retail format and keeps the full range of components readily available.
