SHANGHAI CROWDED

China is now having the 60th anniversary celebration across the country, we have 8 days off starts from the 1st to 8th October. As normally Chinese people always take this opportunity to visit their family or travel to other places. Shanghai is also one of the cities having the most people from other cities, provinces, or countries visiting. At the moment, every staple spot here is extremely crowded.

Just like other days off, I went around the city as usual. For true I am swearing I never saw a lot of people as much as today, very hard to walk, was canned even on the street!

My brunch at Xin Tian Di, Pizza Express

From Dusk til Dawn adidas

Got a call from my other friends to meet them up at People Square then catch a cab to get there, as said Chinese walker troop already there.

Nothing just me

Every time I am here, I always pop up this store, the biggest Nike flagship store in Shanghai. Yea, you can make your own pair of Nike iD here too.

NSW AW77 pack display in the underground floor

The building next to Nike store is Raffle City shopping mall, saw Tokyo Tech pack has been launched already.

Crowd again at Nanjing Road, very famous and long walking street (more than 5 KM from what I heard). Actually tt is always busy and crowd here even in the normal days.

Another NSW shop

People still keep walking

Along the road was decorated by colorful lighting

Hope my trip in the next week will not be as busy as today…

SATURDAY 26/09/09

Where I went,

THX U! WILFRED (AGAIN)

Big thank you to Wilfred from adidas South East Asia again for sending me this rare (or not) adidas x X-LARGE tee.

SHANGHAI FLIGHT

I have made a come back to Shanghai for my study again. It is real pain in the ass when I want to blog in China as ever cuz wordpress is still blocked here.

Change my shoes first

Shanghai’s sky

Arrived

After had had some rest, got some dress and of cuz, went to Juice Stand opening today. I reached there around 3.50pm and many people were lining up in the front already.

Met some friends Kevin from New Balance, Sean, and Iven from CLOT.

I was in the line around 20 mins to get in the store. It is kinda small but looks so cute as its name “Juice Stand”

For anyone wondering what they have for sell, there was not a lot of stuff, I saw adidas ObyO Kazuki (Campus 80 NBHD and Superstar 80 Whiz sold out by the time I got in the store), 3 Ways Consortium but only Asian group, the D-mop x ACU x Stan Smith looked quite beauty though, and some CLOTONE product, just some.

I was able to try New Balance M575J x Staple “White Pigeon” at the new nearby sneaker store too, SOLEGOODZ. Still plenty left in Shanghai with 1280 RMB price tag. The owner is Kevin’s friend. The store is officially retailing Puma and New Balance

Not sure I was lucky or unlucky my usually size, 8US and 9US didnt fit me properly :S

Sorry no pics of Juice, too many people and looked kinda only odd person to snap photo around.

Then went to meet up with my other Thai friends at another boutique store called Source and find some dinner.

Please guess and the winners will be shouted out…

ACU & XIN TIAN DI

Today, got a news from ACU that they will have a storewide massive clearance sale, so what and why I was waiting for??

Met up with my friend at my place and we went there by taxi.
Now 30 – 50% off for every items, yes every single one such as Originals Fake, CLOT, Whiz, Visvim (how nice 40-50% discount for Visvim and 30-50% for CLOT!!!). Wonder why they having such crazy sale??
Becuz ACU is going to close down, means no more ACU and Juice will be open instead.
Good news?

When we got there, many people inside the store already. They bought a lot of things, were those guys resellers?? By the way while we were choosing some discounted items, Iven, ACU manager just arrived to the shop so I had a chat with him for a while. We just knew each others from the previous night at adidas 6009 party. Nice to see him and a little while later I saw Kevin Poon popped in the store too.

Before we had left, people still kept coming to the store like no ending.

After ACU, went to the nearby spot called Xintiandi, it is kinda trendy place for chilling out and shopping. It is some kind of tourist attraction I think. There are many many nice cafes, restaurants, and boutiques here also a big shopping mall in this district.

This very charming 2 square block place was a row of brick building in the old times, now it was renovated to be an entertainment area.

After walked for a while, my friend took me to a hip ice cream shop called Cold Stone in front of the shopping mall. I reckon any girls who love sweet things should love this too.

My order-Cake Batter mixed with chocolate shaving and strawberry

What we bought from ACU

Then visited Gloss cuz I wanted to see New Balance MTG580 Gore-tex and was told by Kevin that Gloss already had it, but only purple pair there, I prefer yellow…
Not too long another group of people coming, they are my friend’s friend to have dinner together.
After we had finished, I asked them for leave, cuz so feeling bored of walking.

Also got this wooden shoe horn from ACU

That’s all for the Saturday.
Bye…
