I'm going to reveal a big secret about myself today on The kind of way I observe things: I am a gigantic Joe fan. What is Joe, you may ask? Well, Joe is one of my top favourite clothing shops - yah, you know the one, tucked inside many a Superstore, with some floating out there on their own as well.
Within my shopshot (heh, heh, get it, instead of earshot?!) there is one at Queen's Quay, one at Don Mills and Eg, one at Forest Hill... and you know, they kinda all fill the bill.
But, when one goes a little further out of the GTA, say, towards Kitchener, Ontario (just steps from the bustling 'burg of Waterloo--my hometown) the biggest, best, most glorious Joe can be found at Highland Hills Mall, at the corner of Highland and Fischer-Hallman roads.
This store is the mothership. When I was back in Waterloo for a week stint earlier this month, I ventured into the store early one morning. I wouldn't be long, I told myself. I was used to whipping through my closest Joe (Don Mills and Eg) in about 15 mins when I'm in TO. But, really, when you're in this Joe, you're going to need to allot yourself about TEN-15 min. blocks of time.
This Joe has it all, the Men's, the Women's, the Children's, the workout wear section, the loungey section, an extensive shoe and flip-flop section, an intimates section, if you will, outerwear... what am I leaving out here!? They really got it all. And I even told a couple members of Team Joe just how I felt about the amazingness that is their store.
So, there you have it. That's a little blurb about Joe and how fondly I feel about the place. Oh, and the stuff in it, too. Share your Joe story with me!

St. Clair and Bathurst JOE-
Is that "Forest Hill"?
I have been noticing many older ladies sporting JOE's brightly coloured rubber boots around town.
Yes, that be the Forest Hill der.
there are semi decent joes in wan-couver as well, but the GOOD one is way out in surrey, which is like a burb/city - hell of a drive but when it comes to joe, it is certainly worth it
I love how one can fill (stuff) a large plastic bag full of durable wearable cuteish clothes for approx. 100 dollars
I couldn't agree more riza. Joe seems to be my yearly go-to shop for a quick Spring/Summer wardrobe update! Bring on the bag!
