Stockholm Shopping: 9 Best Other Shops in Stockholm

Stockholm has much more to offer shoppers than Viking headgear, t-shirts plastered with the Swedish flag, and tacky plastic snow domes. Granted, it is one of the most expensive cities in the world, but that shouldn’t stop you from exploring the myriad of independent boutiques, secondhand stores, and flea markets scattered throughout the city.

Swedish design is famous for its simplicity and minimalism, so you can expect to discover an endless stream of designer pieces including everything from classic printed textiles and avant-garde clothing to contemporary kitchenware and clever household contraptions.
