I believe iluma has more variety, suntec has work boots to make up for the selection. I look for Hong at iluma, i have received good service from this chap.

haha..not sure what's is consider good service...both times i was there, the sales guy just take a look at me and went back to viewing/typing his laptop...there wasn't even a greeting.

maybe he knows i was just going to browse around :s13:

just go try...dun think they will be hard on you for trying without buying. for all they know, you might like it but upon trying, u dun think it suits you. cannot fault you for not buying as it's not a cheap pair of boots.

the one and only time i went in there for a look, the uncle was rather friendly... :s22:

i see, the passive type of sales guy :D

for some customers is good, this type wun disturb till you ask...for others they may seem as not interested to offer their service...can't have the best of both worlds =:p

cajun22 if i remember his nick correctly. yup he posted his pics of his 875 with berms. but im curious if GT can pull it off also.

problem with GT is that they have this slimmer and more formal look.


I tried with berms and 875 before, so far i am ok with myself:p
Tried before with my 8165 too, but feel abit strange. But then i still hack care lah :p
