about us

Physical Element was founded in 2003 and has earned a reputation of offering fashion-forward European apparel with a nod to the avant-garde. Here is where you will find offbeat, distinctive labels from Europe, Japan, as well as the United States and Portland. We work hard to carefully edit our lines and make your look unique. To that end, we don’t order “deep” which ensures you won’t see yourself coming and going.

Physical Element is located in Portland’s art and independent shopping sector, the Pearl District at 1124 NW Lovejoy Street (corner of 11th Ave & Lovejoy Street).
