This is a better Celio than the ones in Madrid, maybe I went during the summer season in Madrid. I liked the one in Nice, but this being Spain I did not think it would measure up to the French ones because this is a French men's store. But to my surprise, this store has a robust inventory. I do my annual holiday shopping here for the man I know who is more European in heart than American back at home. Granted, he had spent childhood in Germany with his grandma and adult life in Scandinavia. It does not carry extra tall or extra large, so abnormal sized Americans (aka most Americans) won't fit the clothing, so if you have friends who are a Medium or Large but slim back home you are in luck, this is designed for European men, but mostly French and Spaniards and not Scandinavians. Read between the line, these basically are clothes designed for slim Mediterranean people with French sensibility. I also like their casual selection in addition to button down shirts, the colors are very pastel or clubby but understated and not loud like Italian or Spanish. But they most certainly are not American in style at all. I find their scarves and wallets total stand out. You don't get that kind of design elsewhere.
While you are in Europe, mostly in France or Spain, you will find Celio as common as Gap back at home, but this being a French store for men, you will find American style cut. It is also just a men's store which I think is unusual. Your guy friends may need to live in metropolitan cities to feel confident enough to wear these clothes out, assuming they have zero body fat. But if they are qualified to do that, they will stand to get stares from other women as they look "European" and a bit too stylish. Ask yourself, do you have friends who could pull that look off? If you do, get them clothing from there. It will make women sway. read more
