NAVIGATING TO SHAO'S OF WEST SOHO
The SHAO flagship emerges from the concrete veins of West SoHo, perched above the raw energy of Canal Street's northern edge—where TriBeCa's polished surface meets the unfiltered pulse of the city. Our design studio and showroom occupy the space above DOGPOUND Gym at 511 Canal Street, NY, NY 10013, a location that mirrors our philosophy: luxury streetwear grounded in authentic urban foundations.
Clients traverse continents to experience what we've cultivated here—a testament to SHAO's global resonance in luxury streetwear culture. Every path to our doors tells a story of convergence, much like the East-West fusion that defines our collections.

The lounge, accessible through either threshold, offers respite that matches SHAO's ethos of refined accessibility.
