Uber-Gay

There's something peculiarly international about gay specialty shops: we seem to like the same underwear, read the same books, watch the same DVDs and play with the same toys. But the UK does seem to have a particularly fine range of goods when it comes to űber-gay shops. And such variety!

House of Pleasure
Run by the people behind clonezone, this emporium of fetishwear – much of it made locally – should satisfy those with even the most specialist tastes. Go as bare as you dare or get totally trussed, whatever your pleasure.

Prowler (www.prowlerstores.co.uk)

This breezy, fresh modern store in the heart of Soho surrounded by gay clubs and bars sells everything for the busy homosexual: books, condoms, cards, Calvins, many at sale prices. There's even an adult section at the back.

clonezone (www.clonezone.co.uk)

Small but perfectly formed, clonezone is a store of two parts: one part adult, with magazines, toys, DVDs and everything you might need for a good night in; the other part more innocent with cards, calendars, books and gay fashion of the tight T-shirt variety.
