Do you feel it's always much easier to find Christmas presents for the ladies in your life than the men?

If this sounds familiar then we have some good news - Maidstone's Fremlin Walk Shopping Centre will welcome two new stores, aimed exclusively at men, in time for the festive period.

New Look Men, the male branch of the popular ladies clothing shop, will open on Friday, November 11.

During 2015 the high street retailer trialled selling menswear and, after hailing the experiment a success, announced its intention to open 20 New Look Men stores throughout the country, including in the county town.

As if that wasn't enough good news for Maidstone's menfolk, gift retailer MenKind is also headed for Fremlin Walk.

Founded in 2001 and with more than 40 stores across the UK, the company aims its products at men who love gadgets and claims to be the place to shop for the man who has everything.

Lloyd Wright, Fremlin Walk centre manager, said: "It’s very exciting to be able to announce the arrival of two new excellent retailers for Fremlin Walk. The centre is performing very well and this addition to our fashion and gift offer will give even greater choice to our customers."
