This store is located in Commercial Road, the main shopping area in central Portsmouth. This makes…read moreit easily accessible, both by public transport and from the central car parks. The store itself sells the usual range of menswear, including a large selection of jeans and t-shirts. They also sell shoes and work clothes. My boyfriend buys his work shirts there because he finds they are easier to iron than those from other stores. The prices of some of the clothes can be quite expensive when compared to the cheaper stores such as Primark. However the quality does appear to be much better and therefore they are good value for money. They also offer a student discount if you have a valid NUS card. This is a good, reliable store where my boyfriend can always find something he likes.

Suits You are quite good value anyway, but this place is great for getting everything for men to…read morelook smart for work or play. They do everything a normal suit shop does (including hire) but also hold loads of sale/clearence stock. We picked up a suit reduced from £270 to £70! Bargain! They inevitably tend to be obscure sizes or lengths but it is great if you need an extra long suit etc. There is a great selection of shirts, but it varies whether they are really good prices or just average value. Definetly worth having a look in here if you want to save some pennies!

I find it a bit of a chore to work my way around the store to find anything but at times I have found a good bargain. The store is generally clean and tidy, just has a lot in it. There is a large range of gifts, especially now in the run up to christmas but I would say they are a bit pricey. This is made easier by the fact that they seem to have a sale every other week.

This is a large Next store selling womens, mens and childrens clothes. As it is an outlet store it…read moresells last seasons goods that didn't sell elsewhere. That said you can pick up a good bargain here if you are willing to look hard. I find Next clothes very good for work and as such it doesn't matter as much if it isn't up to date fashions as blouses and suits change very little between seasons. The store is spacious and offers plenty of room for browsing. When there is not a sale on the prices are still good but the store is a lot more tidy. As in all Next stores when a sale is on you have to rummage hard to find what you want. Unfortunately there are no changing rooms in this store which means that you might have to gamble on something fitting you. However the staff are willing to exchange goods if you find an item does not fit when you get home.

Although Jack Wills isn't a clothes brand that particularly interests me, I know that my teenage…read morestep-brother and sister, plus friend's children of a similar age, are big fans so I popped in here to see if I could pick up a few Christmas presents. This particular branch is full of bargains as it is situated at Gun Wharf Quays, the big outlet shopping centre in Portsmouth. I managed to get a few items of clothing, plus some fantastically reduced make up and smellies, that I know will put a smile on even the sullenest of teenage faces! However, what earns this branch it's five star rating was the customer service. Everyone I came into contact with was smiling, friendly and helpful. The young lad that was on the cash desk was particularly full of conversation, and it felt honest and true, not as if he had just been told to do so! This was the first shop I visited on this shopping spree but the good experience set me up for the day, meaning that I managed to accomplish a large chunk of my Christmas shopping and give the credit card a good bashing!!
