Tren-D at DTD - anyone been there?
Has anyone checked out the store Tren-D at Downtown Disney? I see that it's been open since mid March, so I figure that some of you must have been there. What type of merchandise do they sell? Did you think it was very different from other Disney stores around the parks and resorts? Thanks!

Yes, I was there July 30th and loved this store. While some of the things were the same ones I saw in other of the Disney stores, most was just a little different. Thery were a little quirkier and edgier than most other places. I have to warn you,Tren-D was not as large as I expected it to be- just a small store-maybe a little more expensive too.
There was a lot of clothing, some luggage, some jeweIry. I am sure there was more I'm not thinking of now. I got my new t-shirt there. It is more fitted, and the retro-futuristic colorful disney scene on the front is unlike anything I saw anywhere else.
Do make sure to visit!

This is a super cute store! I loved it's decor and overall "funky" feel. It will be a must-do for very trip now.

My girls and I loved it. We all bought something from there. I'm not into character type clothes normally, but the stuff they had in this store was very cute. They had really adorable, trendy (or Tren-D
) clothes and accessories.
There are pictures of the store at the DIS.

I wouldn't exactly say that I am "Tren-D", so maybe that's why I didn't like it much. It is different than the other stores...it has more of a boutique feel to it. For me, everything seemed a little "loud." Definitely worth checking out though...it might be right up your alley!
