The name is a good indicator of the kind of goods sold here and the kind of prices you'll have to pay to walk out with something.There's small but excellent range of briefcases,luggage,leather hold-alls,wallets and leather-bound hip flasks,as well as other luxury items from stunningly elegant chess sets to really big swords-because nothing says ambitious go-getter like a smart wallet,quality briefcase and a four-foot,jewel-encrusted,barbarian broadsword.Would you deny that man a promotion?. |

Open Sat-Thu 10am-10.30pm;Fri 2-10pm Credit Amex,MC,V.
Swiss cobblers Bally produce footwear with a subtle difference.Trading for over 150 years,Bally borders on the eccentric,with loafers and Chelsea boots in unorthodox colours and materials,and golfing shoe-style creations for the podologically adventurous.The high quirk content is matched by quality.This is reflected in the price tag,which won't so much dent your credit card as write it off completely.But if you want top quality,sometimes you have to pay top prices for it,and their tasselled loafers are essential footwear if you expect to be taken seriously as a smooth lothario. |

More shoes than you can shake a shoehorn at,from trainers and work shoes to casual sandals.Other than the sizeable is that the store is split up into shoe sizes,so you go to the zone for your sized feet and everything they have is right there in front of you.No longer do you have to wait 20 minutes for the sales clerk to rummage around in the storeroom and then come back with disappointing news.

All the usual trainer brands are stocked here,including Adidas,Puma,Converse,Sketchers,Blend and Reebok,but they also stock roller blades and a small selection of tops.For those looking for casual footwear that's a little bit different from the norm then how about this-the Bob Marley range is available here.Yes,there's a collection of trainers and casual shoes with the late reggae singer's name attached to them.We'll never know what Bob thinks about that but at least now the Rastafarian Exodus can righteously go on with comfortable and rather jazzy footwear. |

Of course,you probably know about their-famous pens,which have been signing everything from peace accords to multi-million dollar deals for over a century now,but their watches are just as desirable.Like the fountain pens,they're beautifully crafted and the mark of a man who knows quality.If you have the money to spare,then wearing it on your wrist is as good a way to spend it as any other. |
