SLOPESTYLE
Rue du Bourg
You could conceivably arrive in resort empty-handed and kit yourself out in-shop. From thermals and socks, to outerwear and goggles, to evening wear and street shoes – Slopestyle is a cornucopia of mountain style and street fashion with big brands for on and off the mountain. Their sister store, The Woods, on the opposite side of the street stocks more technical brands such as Patagonia and AK. You can also hire snowboard equipment from here, wrigglet boards for under 5s, and book snowboard lessons with Mint Snowboard School, who has an office in the corner in a little wooden hut. Both shops are also great for gift purchases. Open winter and summer.
ROUGE CHILI
Route du Téléphérique
If you are looking for a shopping fix that is not mountain or ski related, Rouge Chili is your destination. It offers an authentic French shopping experience and is genuinely the shop of choice for the glamorous French local population who you will occasionally spot enjoying a coffee or aperitif around town. Located at the top of the Rue du Bourg it is open year round offering womenswear and menswear as well as great accessories and shoes.
L’ALPAGE
Route de la Plagne
L’Alpage is the perfect end-of-holiday stop off to buy presents for loved ones and stock up on supplies for your own kitchen. It is filled with local produce from dried meats, jams, preserves and digestifs, to locally made cheeses and wines.
