    Casa Lopez

    For boots and briefcases that’ll last a lifetime, head to Casa Lopez, a shop that’s been selling high-quality leather jackets, luggage, bags and accessories since 1943. Go elsewhere for youthful fashion – the style here is conservative and classic.

    Qara

    Moneyed porteñas hit up Qara for chic and thoroughly contemporary leather bags and accessories. Splurge on an oversized, buttery-soft shoulder bag or pick up something small but smart, like a clutch purse that you can attach to your restaurant table (designed to deter the city’s small-time thieves from snatching your keys and wallet).

    Grisino

    This is one of BA's best kids clothing lines and it's one fun store - children who like to shop will love it here. There's a great selection of colorful and cool kids clothing, from ages two to 10. We especially love the rather whimsical T-shirts - if only they had them in adult's sizes…

    Uma

    Ladies, hold off on blowing your budget until you check out Uma, where leather jackets, shoes and hand bags are all knock-out good looking, versatile and wonderfully wearable to boot! There are also branches in Patio Bullrich and Galerías Pacífico.

    Nakua

    This low-key boutique - so laidback there's a lounge, coffee table and magazines - stocks cool, casual urban wear for guys and girls. The standouts are fab, locally-made T-shirts, such as Belle Mondo's retro printed muscle tees in gelato colors.

    El Remanso

    The city’s suavest gentlemen – polo players, obviously – roll up to outfitters like this one for dapper leather boots and stylish riding gear fit for their chiseled physiques. See the thoroughbreds in action at the polo grounds in Las Cañitas.

    Rossi & Caruso

    Should you be in the market for a fine leather saddle or a serious gaucho knife, you’ve come to the right place. The leather goods here, from knee-high riding boots to belts and bags, are beautifully made.
