I don't know if it's just my computer, but that website page refuses to load. Could you post a link to another similar store?

Well, now that I've seen the webpage, the only thing I can think of is Bang-On Shirts. There are some local stores that have clothing that is a little more punk or a little more hippie-like, but I don't generally go into the areas that would sell indie clothing. Perhaps check out

(this is one of the hippie-like stores).

You might want to check Main St and Gastown. Lots of indie shops there that are unique.

you'd probably like El Kartel on Robson between Burrard and Thurlow and Urban Outfitters on Granville.
Try some of the shops on Main Street as well
ie/ Front & Co (by main and king edward) and My Orange Bag (i think its about 6-8 blocks down main and king ed, a friend of mine works there i can get you address if you want). theres also a store on main street called Ark Clothing by main and broadway that has some funky stuff.
theres a lotttt more, i discovered this because i take the main st bus home from langara to the main st skytrain and i found all these neat stores!
