Buy branded clothing with discounts in Barcelona
Shopping is one of the plans of those who come to Barcelona. And all because the capital of Catalonia is full of shops of fashion brands from all over the world for every taste and budget. In addition to the usual stores, where the latest collections are always presented, there are also many outlets where you can buy goods from the best brands from past collections at very attractive prices. Some of them are located in the city center, although the larger ones are usually found in the Barcelona area. However, getting to them is not difficult. As seasoned shopping enthusiasts advise, it is better to plan a whole day for them. Today we have a selection of the most popular outlets in Barcelona.
La Roca Village
Let’s start, of course, with the outlet, which is on everyone’s lips. It keeps its level at its best for many years, constantly developing and expanding. It is a discount mall most sought after by residents and tourists. He even has his own bus that runs daily and delivers everyone right to their doors. The multi-brand outlet La Roca Village presents the best deals from more than 140 fashion brands (clothes, shoes, accessories, perfumes and much more). And this is not only a place for shopping, here you can spend the whole day walking along the pedestrian streets, tasting a large selection of dishes and quality coffee in local establishments.
Also every year the outlet improves the quality of customer service, including the use of modern technologies. They have an exclusive distance selling service (virtual shopping), image consulting and personal shopper services, a virtual queue system that allows you to walk and drink coffee until you receive an alert that the store of interest to the client is free from a large number of visitors.

There is a good chance of finding shoes for the whole family for less than 30 euros per pair. But this store is rich not only in sportswear. There are also fashion and accessories stores. Some fashionistas point out that prices at Viladecans The Style Outlet are lower than at La Roca Village. But, of course, it depends on the brand and product.
How to get there: in addition to the car, The Style Outlet is very easy to reach by train (line R2 from the French Station, Sants Station and Passeig de Gràcia). Viladecans train station is just two minutes from the outlet.
