In the heart of the gay village, Prowler Brighton is bright, airy and inviting... not at all what you might expect from a big gay superstore!

The first thing you'll spot when you enter the shop is the wall of shelves brimming with gay and lesbian books. Biographies, fiction and the requisite erotica, along with magazines, cards, feature films (we're not just talking LGBT films here either - you'll find some golden oldies amongst them), clothes, swimming trunks and lots and lots of underwear...

On the subject of underwear, Prowler has taken more than a passing interest in ensuring that Brighton boys and girls have the widest choice possible, even offering exclusive ranges and patterns that you won't find anywhere else. They have the largest stock of Aussie Bums in Brighton, with new styles added regularly, and have a huge supply of Ginch Gonch underwear.

Moving through to the back of the store and things get altogether darker... you'll find a wide selection of adult DVDs in their R18 department with all the latest films and regularly offering discounts on selected titles. Fetish lovers will also find a great selection of straps, jocks, toys and restraints from the huge range at Expectations, which is also part of the Prowler group.

So if you're heading for the beach and need a new pair of Aussiebums, heading for a birthday party and need a nice card and a prezzie, heading out clubbing and fancy a new vest, heading somewhere a bit darker and need something a bit more revealing, heading off on holiday and need a good book or two, heading somewhere posh and need some new underwear or heading for home and fancy a DVD to put on and put your feet up to, then Prowler Brighton is a required stop off!
