If you
don’t look carefully, you might miss
it. Cosily tucked on East Street, just next
to India Café, is ‘The Basement’.
Don’t judge this store by its insignificant
entrance as the insides tell a different story!
Sprawling, classically and sparingly designed,
this store is a must visit.
Essentially a ‘brand stand’,
The Basement houses almost 24 multinational ‘upmarket’ brands
under one roof! Stress is mainly on leisure,
casual and sports wear.
The entrance has an interesting display
of Reebok and Lee Cooper shoes alternating
with jackets and T-shirts. With brands like
Adidas and Jockey not far behind, there is
ample of variety to choose from.
What you can’t miss is the perfume
counter at the entrance. With almost 25 brands
to choose from, Pacco rabanne, Gucci and
Burberry’s are some of the favourites!
Each brand allotted a section; Jockey has
its range of T-shirts, undergarments, socks,
and even shirts. The sweatshirts and formal
trousers from Ruggers and trendy denims from
Lee Cooper are the highlights!
One simply cannot ignore the section of
Prax while the wide range of T-shirts from
Crocodile International are worth consideration!
One of the last sections is Provogue, where
you can take your pick from its huge range
of shirts, denims and formal trousers.
The women needn’t be disappointed
as there are locally made designer salwar
kameez, scarves from Silk Weaves and a range
of western casuals. Accessories like caps,
belts (Lebuck), wallets and bags are not
uncommon here.
Popular brands like Scullers, Indigo Nation,
Newport and Burlington’s are all available
here as well!
Their best brand however is their service,
they say. Open 7 days a week from 9.30 am
to 8.30 pm, this shop doesn’t believe
in lunch breaks. And what’s more, you
could end up blowing your wallet, before
you even know!
With offers and discounts a common feature
here, not to forget the interesting ‘on
the spot’ gifts, you might be surprised
at what you get next!
