Located in the same
street as Miss Fantasia and Outhouse (South William St) this basement
premises carries an extensive range of designer gay wear. Stocks a
wide range of swimwear, underwear and tops along with leather gear. It
is a main agent for the HOM range of clothing. As in all cases
with designer ware prices are expensive but be on the look our for
special reductions and sales during the year, where bargains can be
had.
Its stock is
geared towards the gay market and can be commended for this approach
though it does also stock some hetro sex toys and the
like. It shares the same web site as the vortex sauna on Great Strand
street
www.basic-instincts.com so there may be joint owners. I do know that
when I purchased some designer gear that I found a concession pass for
the vortex sauna enclosed in the box containing my HOM top! Alas
it didn't include entry during the twice monthly fetish night but u
cant be a winner every time!!! I found the assistant most
helpful and patient as regards to sizes. A lot of these clothing items
contain lycra and bring about gasps of "how will I ever fit
into that"?????
A range of videos
and magazines are also carried. the videos and smaller items are
stocked in a narrow alcove so the rule is that any bags u might be
carrying are left on a stand near the cash desk
before entry to this section, just in case u are overcum by a DVD of
the Bel Ami boys !!! Credit cards accepted. Entry is by way of a steel
stairway from street level and a push button door entry system is used
to gain entry. Visitors may find this unusual but its just for
security purposes :-).
This shop is well worth
a visit and money or credit details are easily parted

This is a very pleasent store to shop
in, its non seedy and well laid out. It carries clothes such as tshirts
and really nice underwear and swimming shorts. It also has a selection
of sex toys, magazines, books and videos. Its discreetly located in a
downstairs shop on South William street. Highly reccomended. There are
also other sex shops on the same street but these cater mainly for a
straight market.
