Snipes
Basel is a surprisingly sporty town, and this much-loved
streetwear and sneakers store stocks plenty. Look for Swiss-made
shoes by On Running – its Cloudneo trainers are a total triumph of
eco-responsible design, and a perfect feel-good souvenir.

Tarzan
Swiss shoppers were early adopters of sustainable fashion, slow
design and supporting local makers. Tarzan is one of Switzerland’s
best sustainable labels, and this Basel boutique is its flagship
store. It’s particularly hot on functional yet fabulous bags and
accessories.
