Introducing
Our Story
Manchester’s Original Alt Fashion Sanctuary
Since 1996, Punk’d Image and its sister brand The Alt Hub have been dressing the real misfits – not the posers. From punk to goth, emo to grunge, and every subculture in between, we’ve built a cult-status brand based on authenticity, attitude, and community.
Operating from Afflecks Palace in Manchester, we’re a destination for those who live outside the algorithm. Every piece we stock is handpicked – no filler, no compromises. This isn’t fast fashion. It’s slow, deliberate, and unapologetically alternative.
“This isn’t just fashion. It’s a culture. It’s a community.”
From iconic brands to exclusive drops, we bring together the loudest looks for real scene kids. Join us – you’re not just buying clothes, you’re joining a tribe.
Alt Fashion. Cult Status. No Compromises.
What We offer
We deliver raw, real fashion with no fluff — just the good stuff.
Curated Collections
Shop handpicked threads, accessories, and merch from trusted indie and scene brands.
Built for the Underground
Rooted in passion, not profit. Every item reflects the energy of the subcultures we serve.
Fast, Fair & Transparent
No inflated prices. When you see “Ships in 10–14 Days” it’s real—no guesswork.
Community-Driven Vibes
We live it, and we back the artists, bands, and creatives doing it.
Who We Dress
Our customers are gig-goers, artists, outcasts, ravers, emo heartbreakers, and punk poets.
They’ve been with us since the MySpace days — and they’re still here.
“The Alt Hub isn’t just clothing, it’s culture.”
