Gate-side fashion stop in BLR T2
Just past security in Terminal T2, United Colors of Benetton works as your last-minute fix for smart casual clothes before a meeting or onward flight. It sits in the main international retail zone, so you’ll walk by it on most long-haul departures from T2. Think mall-style Benetton, not airport souvenir shop.
Stock is standard brand fare: logo tees, polo shirts, chinos, light knitwear, and kids’ clothing, with seasonal colors rotating every few months. Prices run close to regular Indian mall pricing, so don’t expect classic duty-free discounts across the board. You’re paying for having a full clothing shop airside in T2, not outlet tags.
Size range usually covers XS to XL on core items, with some pieces going up to XXL depending on the collection. If you’re short on cabin space, focus on lighter items like T-shirts or shirts rather than bulky sweaters or jackets. Staff typically let you keep airport shopping bags separate from your regular carry-on count, but that still depends on airline policy at BLR.
There’s no official closing time posted online, but like most T2 retail it tends to track with late-night international bank timings, often open past 23:00 when Europe and Middle East flights leave. If you land into T2 after a domestic connection, remember this is post-security for departures, not arrivals, so you can’t access it once you’ve exited.
Practical tip: If you’re tight on time before boarding in T2, snap a quick photo of size and price tags, then decide at the gate and circle back only if your flight is showing at least a 20–25 minute buffer before final call.
