Corso Italia is considered the most expensive shopping street in the city. This is where vacationers can find luxurious boutiques of famous fashion houses. Dolce&Gabbana, Armani, and Trussardi boutiques are all open on Corso Italia. Gigi Tropea, a very interesting multi-branded shop, is also located nearby. The prices are high in all shops, but there are always lucrative discounts on premium items during the sale period.
Via Umberto I is the best destination for tourists who prefer more affordable shops. Fans of such brands as Tally Weiji and Fergy will like shopping here. It would also be a mistake not to mention a big Puma store that is also open on this street. Women should also not pass Yamamay shop by because it offers quality underwear, and fans of natural fabrics will be pleased with Tezenis store that offers quality cotton clothing. Many come to Via Umberto I with the sole purpose of visiting Vittorio shoe store that sells quality Italian shoes at very attractive prices. Via Pacini Street is the location of one of the most famous shopping centers in Catania - La Rinascente. It will take several hours to visit all shops open here. Besides clothing, visitors can always purchase interesting home décor items and souvenirs. Finally, there are several attractive restaurants and cafes in La Rinascente.
