Oh goodie 开路先锋 pls do fr

I noticed the pricing in Wufenpu now doesn't have a big difference with pricing in TMS underground mall or XMD street shops... At most Wufenpu can give u some freebies depending on the shop you go...

Normally I only go to the T shirt shop that sell cartoon T shirt... good for my son to stock up... my wife buy shoes...

Anything to see or buy at wufenpu?

mostly ladies clothes... but my wife don't really like their clothes... she go there buy shoes and t shirts....

check the adapter input rating, it should show 110~240v. if only 240v then shouldn't plug into 110v outlet

Mobile chargers are very much universal.
Not heard of follow single standard.
same for laptop chargers.
Still better to read the rating.

well are we still talking about hiking with trekking sandals vs crocs? both aren't suitable for running.

crocs are are made for comfort on city street, parks & not trails (paved trails not counted). on uneven terrain crocs too bouncy & become unstable which stress the ankles more.

no need to believe me, u can try yourself if interested

 

[pigpigoink]

let's say basic economy + 1 check in. eva, scoot, china airline.

No need la.
I do walk around in crocs.
Of course a good pair running shoes also can do good.
Just that when i go caoling, earlier time i went with Chaco sandals.
Then slowly bo chup liao, wear crocs.
My first time to caoling was in 09 march.
Then few years do one time.
Since my frequency there is far more common than any.

June going Yushan.
If no buy hiking shoes, really going to wear SAF boots liao…

I wear the bistro crocs. Anti-slip. Should be suitable for trails as I use it for long walks as well.
