Shopping Guide In Hong Kong Part 1

Our Hong Kong Trip was last year November and frankly speaking we did a lot of research on where to get streetwear as there's a lot of reseller there as well as those flag stores like Chrome Hearts, Clot, FIL, I.T and etc. 

 So for high end brands like Givenchy, Alexandra McQueen, Rick Owen, Balmain, Thom Browne and etc could be found at shops like JOYCE; which engaged in many internationally renowned fashion brands.  However, they have many stores and each outlet sells different like for example the outlet in Causeway bay has it but harbour city doesn't. So if you have any specific items in mind just go to one of the outlet and ask them to check which outlet has it.

Now if you're looking for re-seller shop that sells streetwear brands like Supreme, Wtaps, Neighbourhood, Original fake and etc it could be found in most of the reseller shops. However, things to be aware of is that there are so many reseller shop in Hong Kong which one is selling legit or replica items you would need to check before you purchase.

These are the shops that I went to during my trip,  basically theses shops consolidated from Hypebeast and other forums.

Lastly, if you really have a tight itinerary you might want to skip all of above reseller shops and head straight to Mong Kok! Cause there’s this place called Trendy Zone 潮流特區. It's located at basement level with lot's of shops selling Jordan, new balance and other clothing brands. I brought my Green glow and new balance there.
