About Us
When Joe Nadav first came to Philadelphia over 30 years ago, he looked at the empty storefronts and boring fashions that lined the streets and thought, “This city is naked! I need to clothe it.” That is when City Blue was born.
Since opening our first store on 13th and Market Street in Philadelphia in 1981, City Blue has been a leader and innovator in urban fashion. We are committed to bringing the hottest styles and trends in apparel and footwear from the catwalk straight to the sidewalk. With choices from premium brands such as Nike, Levi's, Timberland, Puma, Converse, New Era, Mitchell & Ness, New Balance, Parish and many more to outfit the whole family, men and women, boys and girls, infants to adults; we have the tools to construct your personal style.
City Blue currently operates 25 stores, in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Ohio, including 3 Lady Blue stores specializing in women’s fashions. Click here to find the nearest location for you.
City Blue prides itself on creating one on one relationships with our customers and providing the highest degree of service for total customer satisfaction. Our knowledgeable staff is up to date with all the current styles, and they always keep it real. We make sure you don’t leave the store unless you look fresh. It’s no wonder that we have been around for 30 years and continue to push the envelope in today's retail world.
City Blue has also been committed to helping the communities it serves by partnering with the Philadelphia Police Force in facilitating one of the most successful Gun Buyback programs in the history of this country (1999, 2007). As we look toward the future, our human resource department not only focuses on our internal City Blue team, but places high value on serving the communities we share with our customers.
