Welcome to Doherty For Men

Established in August 1975 Leo Doherty Menswear had an instant impact on men's fashion in Castlebar and Co.Mayo. Housing high quality designer brands which had not previously been available in the area it did not take long for people to realise that something new had arrived in men's Retail.
For the official opening in August 1975 Leo a brother of Sean Doherty then current Dublin Gaelic Football Team Captain and All Ireland Champions, proudly placed The Sam Maguire Cup in the new store window creating quite the atmosphere which spiked massive local interest, the store had instant success and 11 years later in September 1986 the company needed to expand and then purchased and relocated to its existing 4,000sq ft premises on Main Street Castlebar.
A building steeped in history, in the early 19th century owned by the Durcan family and trading as T. Durcan Ironmongers. This multi purpose business also housed a travel agency which sold tickets for the Titanic's maiden Voyage, unfortunately out of the 14 people from the community Abbergoole and village of Lahardane known as "Ireland's Titanic Village" it was the largest loss of life of any one community in Ireland. 11 of these unfortunate people were lost with the Titanic on April 14th 1912. This history has not been lost on the Doherty Family and within the store today you will find a small room dedicated to this history, locally know as "The Titanic Lounge" which houses some old photographs of the Durcan Family and Store in 1905 along with front page headlines from local papers and the national press the day after news of the tragedy spread around the world
