Reasonably Priced Mens Stores A Paris?

Question

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew about some good mens stores, that have more clothes aimed at a younger generation, and have reasonable prices too, since I'm going to be in Paris soon and I wanna be sure to pick up some stuff I wouldn't normally see back in the States. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Merci beaucoup!

Answer 1

A stroll down the Blvd. St. Michel will lead you past dozens of stores selling  men's clothing aimed at the student population in the Latin Quarter.

Answer 2

Considering the US dollar is at its weakest point (or almost, if not that), I'd suggest you save your money. Popular stores like Zara and H&M have branches in some big U.S. cities (though selection may be different). If you insist on clothes shopping in Paris, you will find these and other mens' stores in shopping/tourist districts, like Champs-Elysees, boulevard Haussmann, rue de Rivoli (near Hotel de Ville, BHV).

If you want to do one-stop shopping, there is the Les Halles shopping center (centre commercial), or you can go to Printemps or Galeries LaFayette department stores, which are for the most part high-end, but have dedicated sections for less expensive labels as well.

I would also recommend you check out the basement level of Galeries Lafayette. It is GL's younger, hipper section and has a great selection of lesser-known designers, clothing you won't easily find in one place elsewhere in Paris. Likewise, there's no H&M nor Zara here. The downside is that it is more expensive than the aforementioned (you can find less expensive stuff, but it's hard), but if you're into finding one cool, different item instead of buying 3 not-so-interesting items, definitely check it out.

Answer 3

Zara and H&M are your best bet... the easiest place to go is on the Boulevard Haussmann at the Chausée d'Antin metro stop.

Answer 4

LOL!!!

That's a good one!
