It’s been part of the shopping scene in the Cronulla mall for decades, but the Lowes clothing store is no more.
The shop closed without explanation or warning in recent weeks.
Just an empty space remains.
Signs in the windows provided no answers.
They state simply, “Goodbye from Lowes Cronulla: (Your nearest Lowes store is Miranda”.
The closure is catching the attention of many of the people walking through the mall.
“It closed down overnight,” said one local resident.
“I have got no idea why.
“It was there one day and gone the next.”
The store, which specialised in men’s wear, including extra large sizes, will be missed by shoppers looking for budget-priced clothing.
Cronulla resident, Darryl “The Big Marn” Brohman, has featured in the company’s ads for many years.
The Cronulla store was also a major provider of uniforms for schools in Sutherland Shire.
The Leader is seeking comment from Lowes.
