So I hike up Dobongsan, and now I decide to get a light down jacket so I go to Jongno-5-ga. . . (and I find a lovely one for W100k) and then I still have to walk past more gear shops. . . so I am saying to myself: DON'T LOOK! DONT LOOK! and out of the corner of my eye I kinda see this pile of shoes with a sign for W20,000. . . well, Imelda I am not, but I get to thinking about how I'll only have one pair of shoes in Slovakia at the moment. . . (that is not the case anymore!)
So I sit down and sift through-- mostly mad Rock, some Trango, Boreal, 5.10. . . sized from kids to 280, with virtually everything in between. I am guessing it's on until they sell out. I couldn't resist a pair at that price.
The store is Mountain Equipment, a bit east of Jongno-5-ga station. . . if you walk along the Chonggyecheon, turn left (N) at the Black Yak store and it's about half a block, on the left. Kim Deok-hyung is the manager, and it's also known as Taesan Leisure (on the card) address: 1F 321-5 Jongno-5ga Jongno-gu Seoul 110-836 02)2247-8848 www.mlibero.co.kr duke1224 at hanmail.net
At any rate, there are lots of good sales going on, but this shoe price is hard to beat, and as of today there were many sizes. . .
