You will find a few places selling 'branded' sweatshirts and hooded tops and I think there may be one shoe shop and a couple of jewelery shops, some food shops, plenty of shops for ski wear and equipment, maybe still a place selling antiques (sort of), a few places selling Kung Fu stars/nightsticks/BBguns/stun guns, some tourist type shops selling souvenir items and the odd estate agent.

Borovets is a small village half way up a mountain in Bulgaria. It does not really cater for the high end shopper. I suggest that you may want to go on the day trip to Sofia where you will find some shopping Malls selling the type of item that you want. I do not however know how prices compare. One things is for sure, you probably do not want to spend too much time walking about Borovets in normal shoes

re: shops

No, there isn't any shopping in Borovets.

A few shops selling touristy tat but no real clothes shops. Although if you get the chance to do the day trip to Sofia there are some great shops there.

re: shops

Or you could take a bus from Borovets to Samokov. The cost is 2 lev I think and you will find shops there selling clothes at reasonable prices.

re: shops

No - they mean Samokov town - just less than 10mins away. But...have to agree with most of the posters that if you really want shopping you really need to go to Sofia - Samokov has next to nothing in terms of quality / range etc
