This is the German TJ Maxx, and it's just as good (if not better) than its U.S. counterparts. While…read moreon a European trip in late December, my husband left his only pair of gloves on the train. I'm so glad I found this store in Heidelberg because I was able to get him a replacement pair for cheap, and I didn't have to go to a pricey department store. This is a two-level store with all sorts of good stuff. I really loved looking at the makeup section, lots of European brands for a few dollars. I picked up some face cream and lip balm to use during my travels as well. This store was well stocked for the season, and the racks were full of warm winter jackets, scarves, and hats, which makes this a great and affordable stop if you are traveling and have forgotten something (socks, shirts, pajamas, toiletries, etc.). It's like a treasure hunt, but don't expect to find high end designer brands or anything, just solid, reliable wardrobe staples. Basically your typical TJ Maxx with a little dash of European flair!

So if you find something you like and it fits right, do not hesitate as it might not be there the next day. The Men's section is smaller than the Women's but still has a good variety of clothes, including Lederhosen.

Liebeskind Berlin is the brand name but if you are in Heidelberg I recommend you visit their store…read more If I get to Germany again in this lifetime Heidelberg and this store are again on my itinerary. My local store in SOHO closed a long time ago. I was browsing through and spotted a beautiful black leather bag. That was my first experience touching this fine leather brand. It's so soft the way I like leather to be. My bag has a pocket on the outside perfect for my metro card. There's an inside zipper pocket and slip pockets. The leather shoulder strap is detachable and adjustable. I keep it folded and tied placed inside the bag when not in use. There's a key fob inside the bag also. This bag holds more than you would think. It's one of my favorite bags. It's really the only bag I would ever want or need if I had to keep only one of my bags. Like I said the store in Manhattan has closed. They do most of their business online. You have to convert U.S. Dollars to Euro. To me the bags are reasonably priced. The Liebeskind Headquarters are located in Berlin, Germany. The bags are also sold at Bloomingdales, Nordstrom and other U. S. Department Stores. I'm recommending.

I love this brand and discovered it some time ago in Munich. They have a store also in Heidelberg…read moreamongst other cities and the staff here were super friendly and welcoming. They even gave our dog a bag of homemade treats even though we did not buy anything at the store. This shop has very little for men and, all you can really do here if you are a man is, pull out your credit card and pay for the shopping :-(( Their stuff is very trendy and modern and I have found the odd thing or two for myself in the past. They have clothes, shoes, bags and tons of other accessories including the coolest mobile phone covers. I bought one before and love it. All in all a great store in Heidelberg.
