Cotswold is without a doubt the best outdoor clothing emporium in the West End. I challenge anyone…read moreto find a better-stocked shop for this kind of stuff without going into town or farther out to the likes of Braehead or Clydebank. They're a bit of a younger upstart to the likes of Graham Tiso, and tend to favour the mid- to upper-end of the market with top brand names at premium prices - although they do often have discounted items so it's always worth a look. I find most of their clothing to be out of my price comfort zone (I'm more the Regatta end of the market), so I seldom do any serious shopping here. However I am a huge fan of their thermawear fleecy baffies (that's slippers to non-natives) in the winter, which cover up your ankles quite a way thus preventing draughts up the trouser leg. They don't last more than a season or two as they're more akin to heavy-duty socks really; but they're lightweight, comfy and good value. Sadly on this particular visit they didn't have them in stock; apparently it's still considered to be summer in Scotland - who knew? I shall have to return later. 150th review!

Nothing scabby about this place. This is the shop that you go for your outdoor gear when you decide…read moreit's time to get fit....you know, when you reach the time in life when your waist size and age appear to be rapidly accelerating at breakneck speed. Not quite an old persons shop, but certainly fluttering around the middle age, middle of the road " comfortable" salary earning bracket, Cotswold is a well stocked, well priced outdoor gear store staffed by knowledgeable friendly staff who are more than happy to give you the time of day as you ask them blatantly stupid questions " just how waterproof is this waterproof....can i wear it in the bath...if i fall in the ocean with a book in my pocket will it stay dry???" ,Anyway, just bought a wee set of reins for the child like wonder that is my daughter form here. Good price, good advice..." do not use to tie child up outside shops, do not use as a means of propelling oneself behind said child on a skateboard or roller blade's"....you know, the usual health and safety crap. Well, imminent social service visit inducing comments aside, this is a proper grown up outdoor store. Get your ass here if you need anything from jackets to child carriers....kick bottom...not of child, page 346 section 4 paragraph 9 of the European "Don't do that, it's just stupid" handbook.

You will find items in store that are hard to find elsewhere around the town like Wellington books hiking gear camping gas. There is a wide range of camping equipment like sleeping bags and tents, cookers to waterproof clothing. A fantastic shop that stocks items that others don't have. The camping gas for stoves is £1 cheaper than crockets.

Terrible quality clothing at expensive prices. Bought a pair…read moreof trousers there several years ago for around £50 - wore them half a dozen times before they started fraying at the waist. About 4 months ago, I needed a top at the last minute and it was the only place open nearby. Paid £30, wore it a few times, then a hole appeared at the back near the top of collar. Absolutely terrible quality. Won't set foot in the place again.

Tretcherous!"). When you walk into Fat Face you are immediately greeted with their 'survival' stock (do necklaces really count... really!?). You've got to give it to them though, for such a small store they have actually packed it full of stuff. Women's clothing, men's clothing, kid's clothing, boots, 'survival' kits, accessories... ooft. It has it all. The clothes aren't AMAZING or the height of fashion - they'd do the job - but they aren't exactly my cup of tea (especially when they come at quite a high price). Like most places on Byres road, everything comes at a price. I once bought a thermos mug for my sister, which cost me, £23 no less. And no, it didn't make the coffee for you either. Troubling, isn't it? I'm slightly skeptical - it is nice for a one off gift every now and again - maybe it's worth a look if you need outdoors type clothes, and have lots of pennies to spend? I don't know, but it doesn't really cater for me, I'm afraid.
