Overview of Shopping

For being such a microscopic spec on the map, Telluride has quite a few places to throw down your credit card for some really good stuff. Between Telluride and Mountain Village, there are shops for just about everything…ski and outdoor gear, books, jewelry, home furnishings, toys, flowers, kitchen goodies, clothing of all sorts, art, even treats for canines and felines.

Shopping in TellurideSay you’re looking for a new board or skis this season, maybe a new mountain bike, a fashionable, yet functional down jacket, or a few pairs of cozy long undies? Telluride Sports, Boot Doctors, and Paragon Sports have that line-up. Or perhaps you promised your mother-in-law some truly authentic cowboy boots (considering here in Colorado we are in the heart of the great Wild West). Bounty Hunter and Black Bear Trading Company have plenty of great options. Thinking about some art to add to your collection, or a stunning piece of studio jewelry for that upcoming 10th anniversary? Try the Telluride Gallery of Fine Art, Dolce Jewels, or the Schilling Gallery. There are also great gifts, toys and kids clothes at Star; beautiful home furnishings at Picaya and Dakota; and room to dress the whole family at Telluride Trappings & Toggery. And even though you’re on your mountain holiday, you might feel like curling up on the couch with the latest New York Times Bestseller rather than hitting the slopes everyday. Have no fear, Between the Covers bookstore can take care of you. Last but certainly not least, we can’t forget the ladies who simply must have the latest skinny jeans, yet another delicious cashmere wrap (because really, who can have too many?), the most fabulous bag, or the sexiest heels for New Year’s. For those fashion goddesses, Two Skirts, Scarpe and Cashmere Red have all the fresh looks and hottest designers.
