Top 3 affordable department stores in Zurich

Hi there

Im looking for the top 3 most affordable (non-touristy) department stores to buy mens clothing e.g. brands like Tommy Hilfiger Timberland etc. I assume that would exclude the Bahnhoffstrasse?

I forgot to add: in Zurich or surrounds. I am in Pfeffikon.

There's a TH flagship store on Bahnhofstrasse, you could try there. Globus will carry those brands and you pay the appropriate price for them.

When it comes to department stores, I like to go to Manor, it carries the widest range of sizing and is reasonably priced. Globus is also quite good, I just wish they would stop shifting all the stuff around. I really hate Jelmoli, the layout of the shop drives me mad and the shop assistants can be incredibly snooty, with the prize for most insulting reply going to the lady who answered my asking for a pair of size 44 trousers with "Our usual clientèle usually make sure they do not require such large sizes, so we don't carry them". Seriously. Its prices are also usually higher than you pay for the same thing everywhere else.

If you want loads of choice in one place, you could make the trip to Glattzentrum.

Tommy Hilfiger hahahah. I guess it's a free world :-)

"Yes or No" at the basement level of Manor store (spelling) also have a Tommy section.

Personal advise- Don't waste your money on crappy labels like Tommy.

Hi,

There is Globus Outlet located in MediaMarkt building in Dietlikon. It's not that big but they have selections of brands sold at the usual Globus (incl TH and Timberland). And everything is half the retail price. Depending on luck, you might get nice, good bargain there.

Anyone for Esprit? There is an outlet in Dietikon industrial area. It is very cheap there. Shirts can be as low as Chf6 .

Hello Marish,

Do you have the address of Globus Outlet and Esprit? I'm hoping to buy a good winter jacket or two before it starts to snow.

Thanks!

Globus Outlet address:

Neue Winterthurerstrasse 7, 8305 Dietlikon

Esprit Outlet address:

Riedstrasse 3, 8953 Dietlikon

Hope you find what you are looking for.

Funny enough, I was just noting to myself how many Tommy labels I see on the streets of Geneva. The past few years, I saw Tommy rarely on the US East Coast and thought it was passé. The stuff here does look more conservative though. The Tommy clothes I saw in California in late 90s looked like walking advertising with 10-inch-high 'Tommy' letters or logos.
