ASK SHOPPING buffs which season they like best and the reply invariably is: the discount season. No summers and winters for them. Their loyalty lies with the off-season discounts. After all, these help them don the hottest brands without burning a hole in the pocket.
In a country, where brands such as Levi's find very few takers beyond the moneyed few, these discounts seem to be a godsend. So, what if the stuff on sale are seconds. A defect or two is hardly a problem, especially if it's not visible to the eye. Kicking off the `after-summer' sale this year is the Levi's and Dockers showroom at the Catholic Centre complex, General Hospital junction. It offers a discount of up to 60 per cent on jeans, T- shirts, trousers, cargos and shorts for either sex, till June 9.
The much-advertised Dockers mobile pants with extra pockets tucked inside the waist seam and hidden behind zippers on the legs are available for Rs. 1,099 each. Dockers' micro-sanded twill, wrinkle-free cotton trousers, in regular fits and flat-fronts, come for the same price. And there are myriad colours to choose from -- cream, putty, olive, grey, black, blue-black and khakis.
Dockers T-shirts come in round-necks and polos in a variety of finishes. Striped polos in blue, white and beige can be had for Rs. 599, while single-coloured ones can be picked up for Rs. 499 each. Its round-necked polos come for Rs. 599 each. Wrinkle-free shirts cost Rs. 499 each and an international line of checks just Rs. 599.

For those who prefer the `real' stuff comes the 501 top-of-the-line Levi's jeans, which is pre-washed. Imported from abroad, this range comes for Rs. 1,499.
