Clothes Shops, Shoe Shops, Fashion and Bargains
  • Pollys a boon at Christmas.. great stuff
  • Pollys...cool 30's to 70's gear and great trinkets
  • Cafe society, franks, deffinatley gusto opposite burger king, but you might have to buy everything in there cause its all SO nice!!
  • Hurrah for Cheap Charlies!
  • aint got any really but the don is good for unique t-shirts
  • the don 4 crazy gimic t-shirts and clubs andn societies. u can get ne thing u want printed on a t-shirt here check out there website www.absoluteprintwear.co.uk they also sell lodsa posters!!!
  • Unless you want to buy either a)Bad quality, over-priced trash (a la Cafe society/franks b) Hippy trash (a la Polly's) c)townie trash (a la New Look) go else where
  • Ummm, let me think ..... clothes shops .....in Aber... what about going to Cardiff instead? Did you know Aber used to have a top shop but it closed down and became Evans (that shop for the slightly larger lady)
  • Franks, Cafe Society, Monsoon, Magic Point - no department stores.
  • Absolutely CRAP..gusto/cafe society ok but massively overpriced
  • Stormriders by the station is the only place selling boardrider s**t that would turn any guy into a love god. Guaranteed or your money back.
  • If you live in aberystwyth you dont need clothes! everyody wears crap - except mildly rich students who look extremely poncy with their golfing caps and pre-torn jeans
  • Stormriders by the station sells guys and girls clothes from most of the core surf skate and snow brands. Very cool kit and sensible prices.
  • plenty of clothes shops if u like new look or middle aged style womens clothes...not exactly much other than stars for gothy/grungy looking clothes
  • Hmmm 'Burtons', is the only place where you can get clothing fromn the 21st century!!!! B'wise Ok too if you want cheap clothes
  • If you go into any of the wonderous clothes shops,as usual,the clothes as always, will not fit you. Take them to (a very friendly) "Swansons Dry Cleaners" in the middle of town,you cant miss them. They have a wonderful and most importantly RELIABLE alteration service. I took three pairs of slacks there to be shortened,one which also needed a new zip,they were ready the following day,all pressed up and packed in cellophane and they did'nt charge me a fortune,I checked out the prices in Newtown's Dry Cleaners and they were twice the price and would take a week!. Full marks Swansons Dry Cleaners! Small town.....Big on customer relations!
  • What clothes shops???
  • er peacocks for granny, stewart seconds for poor or students, otherwise shop else where( the nearest is Carmarthen and thats 50 miles away).
  • Go into Magic Point in Terrace road......check out what you want, even try it on((they'll help....ever so friendly there))then when the sale is on.....get in there and save yourself a bomb!
  • Lits of old-ladies type shops. Franks is pretty good, if a little pricey.
  • dream on...
  • lettice and melbury is crammed full of stuff by french connection,in wear (to name but a few).I got a brilliant fleece by footprint there for only £47 (down from £95).Other womens clothes shops are either normal high street ones - dps,new look or old biddy ones.
  • franks off pier street(don't know what the actual road is called). usa clothing opposite burger king(in process of changing name) a few others but most are crap and anything you'll buy you'll see on 20 other ugly nerds before you get it home cos aber has so few shops.
  • Numerous charity shops. Will provide all your student clothing needs in Aberystwyth
  • Cheap Charlies
  • Again there is Burtons on the main street and a Cirro Cittero (suppose thats Italian for expensive crap?) but why not go somewhere else to buy clothes...
  • Check out Stewart's Seconds for the occassional chain store bargain!
  • Neville's has indeed shut. But in its place is Stars, not bad, with friendly staff. Polly, near Cheap Charlie's is also good, if you like smelling of patchouli... Lettice and Melbury, on Pier Street does smart stuff, but costs a small fortune, for Aber.
  • Aber's finally getting some new, cheap clothes shops. We've had a B'Wise for 18 months now (I should know, I work there!)
  • Dotty P's, Burtons, Fosters, usual chain stores in economy size versions.
  • Neville's Boutique kits out students in cheap tie-dye kaftans and grungewear.
    Neville's Boutique no longer exists.
  • On the other hand, as far as some people are concerned it's a case of: "Do you want to go shopping by train or by coach!"
