Best mall in Vegas?

Hello,

My wife and i plan on doing a little bit of shopping while we%26#39;re in Vegas.

I%26#39;m just curious to know what others think is the best mall.

We%26#39;ll be looking to buy things like trainers, t-shirts etc

So far i%26#39;ve found several different Malls

Fashion Show Mall on the Strip

Las Vegas Premium Outlets a taxi ride away

and

Fashion Outlets of Las Vegas about 30 minutes away

I%26#39;d be interested to know other%26#39;s thoughts on the best mall

Thanks.

Best mall in Vegas?

When are you guys going to Vegas? If it%26#39;s mid summer, or in winter, you might want to consider one thing: would you like to stay indoors while you shop? My favorite is the Premium Outlets, but it%26#39;s not an indoor mall. Fashion Outlets of Las Vegas (Primm Outlet) is quite far- if you won%26#39;t have a rental you%26#39;ll need to ride the shopper%26#39;s shuttle.

By the way are you looking to buy name brand items (DKNY, CK, Ralph Lauren etc) or it doesn%26#39;t really matter? It%26#39;s not a mall but you might want to check out Ross (discount store)- you can find sweatshirts and t-shirts and so on at good prices.

Fashion Show Mall is probably the best all purpose mall with the largest variety of stores and it%26#39;s right on the Strip.

For top end shopping and a real ';luxury experience'; then definitely check out Forum Shops at Caesars Palace and Grand Canal Shoppes at Venetian. These are tourist attractions in their own right and you should definitely see them even if you don%26#39;t plan to shop there. Miracle Mile mall at Planet Hollywood offers more mainstream shopping than these two and there%26#39;s also Mandalay Place, a small mall between Mandalay Bay and Luxor.

The newest large shopping development is Town Square, a mile or so south of Mandalay Bay.

The two outlet places are worth visiting if you want to pick up bargains. Premium Outlets (close to Downtown) is the favorite of most visitors but Las Vegas Outlet Center (south of the airport) is ok too.

I wouldn%26#39;t bother with Fashion Outlets out at Primm unless there%26#39;s a store there that you simply HAVE to visit that%26#39;s not at a closer location.

This question and others very similar to it are asked on here every few days or so. Use the forum search to read hundreds of old posts about this. Also check out this link:

We have been to Vegas the last couple of years and tried many of the malls

Previous TA advice seemed to suggest that Primm was not worth the time based on the availablilty of good shopping in/around the strip and therefore we havent been there.

The best idea is to check on the web what stores are at each site in case you have a favourite brand.

LV premium outlets was good - we picked up cheap CK,Polo,Timberland etc..(worth a quick taxi ride)

Fashion Show mall has department stores that had some sale items covering various good brands, along with the ';single brand stores';

The shops in Caesars were also good for higher end designers - Boss/Gucci etc - although no sales

However remember at any of the three above, they are much cheaper than in the UK

The only one I wouldnt go back to is the mall up by Luxor/M. Bay

Many, many thanks for your quick and detailed replies.

I was edging towards Premium outlets as i want to fill my boots, or suitcase, with Nike and Converse. The wife on the other hand liked the sound of the Fashion Outlets.

Once again thanks!
