The best thing about being in Taiwan….

New Balance

.. is buying sneakers!

This is most probably my sixth sneaker I bought from Taiwan. I have previously bought 1 x Nike, 3 x Adidas, 1 x New Balance and this is my latest additional to my bought-in-Taiwan sneakers - another pair of new New Balance. This time a classic coffee coloured 574 runner. I am wearing it now as I am typing this.

So. Why you should always buy a pair of sneaker when you are in Taiwan?

New Balance

1st - The rack price is always cheaper than KL’s prices.

2nd - You get further discount. How much discount? My shoe was tagged for NT2850 and I got it for NT1190 which translate to RM125 at the time of purchase. The cheapest I’ve got was an Adidas which I bought it for Valerie. The price that I paid? NT900. You do the math. It’s cheap.. really cheap.

3rd - The choices are endlesssssssss…. The choices in KL are really a piece of joke. Add in good customer service, it’s really fun doing your shopping in Taiwan. I hate to say this but services in KL really needs some wake up call.

I seriously don’t remember when was my last sneaker bought in KL….. So think of sneaker, think Taiwan! This is my sixth pair and counting!
