Address book: special "go back to school" for Millennials

Every week, we are offering on the blog, a special series of articles highlighting different establishments in the Old-Montreal. The holidays are over (or almost!) and it’s time to go back to school or work. To help you get ready, we have put together a special list, focused on Millennials so that you can start September on the right foot. Time to get ready with new things but also new habits, the Old-Montreal has everything you need!

If the shoe fits, wear it

Last month, the streetwear shop Off the Hook collaborated with Vans on a special and original collection of sneakers! For this partnership, OTH revisited the famous Era Lx shoes by Vans to offer you three different pairs of shoes, inspired by three different neighborhoods in the city. Their message? “Montreal is our home”! Come discover their special pair of sneakers, inspired by the historic neighborhood of the city, in their shop located in the Old-Montreal, on Saint-Vincent Street!

Stay stylish
A good bag is a vital accessory when you go back to school or to work! If you’re looking for a practical and stylish design, you should head to the Magasin General. The shop offers a large variety of handbags and backpacks where you can put all your essentials. You will also find many useful accessories such as beautiful pencil cases, watches, wallets… You are spoilt for choice!

Be comfortable in your own skin
The “go back to school/back to work” period is also a good way to go adopt new habits… Like working out for example! It’s perfect because, until November 14th, Multigym Montreal offers a special deal so that you can join the gym without paying registration fees! Moreover, this offer also allows you to enjoy a free personalized assessment with one of their personal trainers.

Take care of yourself

The Scandinave Spa recently renovated their interiors, and they are still providing the best service to their clientele! If you are obsessed with massotherapy, they have the perfect offer for you!

Yearly, quarterly or monthly… You can enjoy the membership that suits you best to have unlimited access to the baths. What’s more, the workers and the people of the Old-Montreal can also enjoy a special offer!

To start the day properly
There’s no secret: a good day starts with a good breakfast! For that purpose, Aloha Espresso Bar has a membership card that allows you to enjoy 10 to 15% discount on food and desserts.

Let's go out!
