A popular clothes retailer has opened a new, larger location in one of the North East's premier shopping and dining destinations - Newcastle's Eldon Square.
Damaged Society provides alternative lifestyle, fashion, trends and streetwear to shoppers, including "edgy" brands, like Vans, Dr Martens and The Ragged Priest.
The store also includes a vast selection of alternative band merchandise from heavy metal bands such as Metallica, Guns 'n' Roses and AC/DC, as well as new artists such as Billie Eilish and Yungblud – there is something for everyone.

This new opening adds to the Damaged Society empire, which already has stores across the UK in cities like Glasgow, Nottingham and Bristol.
Advertised as offering products that are "distinctive, unique, and fiercely independent", Damaged Society has carved out a loyal customer base.
Its new, larger store will be located on the upper mall, opposite its current store on High Friars, providing shoppers with "even more choice when seeking unique and quirky brands and merchandise not available anywhere else on the high street."
Bernice Nesham, Senior Asset Manager at Pradera Lateral commented: “Due to the incredible success of Damaged Society in Eldon Square, we are thrilled to be able to provide a bigger unit for them to continue to establish their brand and offer even more exciting and unique fashion and products.
