SNEAKERING IN BANGKOK N OTHER STUFF

went there 4 new years day... all i can say is MANGA is awesome
alots of 10deep stuff. love it

nice info, seems like a lot of stuff changed even since i was there last year. going back in july, should be good. anyone gonna be there? I heard they changed the food court at MBK and it sucks now, shame. I just love checking out the whacky sh.t at JJ, like Russian arctic jackets in bangkok, wtf? and monkeys, gotta get me a monkey

ps: there is a new store in siam square named zig-zag. other than kicks, they also carry Hellz Bellz, Red Clay, Royal Fam, Mishka, Nike and dutch brands, Ontour and Rockwell. apparently its owned  by a dutch guy and is located at soi 1. here is the (spartan) website: http://www.zig-zag-shop.com/

on my way back from my summer trip to bangkok, and im transiting in seoul so i thought i id make some quick updates.

- i found a new balance flagship store in central world (ask any info desk and theyll give exact directions). lots of things in stock, im no NB head but they had pretty much every talked about release from the last year or so (including a white pair of those embroidered dragon kicks).
- further more i got into that apointment only consignment store in MBK (was just walking by at the right moment), in terms of clothes they had mostly vintage/on of type stuff hanging around, nothing i was really familiar with and most of the kicks they stock are in a size 10us, i did pick up a nice supreme new era though. the guy who was in charge (who apparently runs something called "project banklyn" although what that is im not quite sure yet) was super freindly, showed me some sketches futura did for him and his tattoos that futura also designed for him.
-the rip curl store in center mall (in between paragon and discovery) no longer stocks stussy or zoo york, but you can still find them both in a new store on the top floor of the same mall next to the food court.
-in the department stores of paragon and central world you can also find full collections of stussy, zoo york, and volcom. and "yeah!" has a corner in the department store of paragon as well, which stocks mostly skate brands like DC, but also the odd LRG, Obey, and even a little bit of artful dodger. 

ill add anything i forgot as well as drop some new proddy picks when i get back home

how can that happen the scene is huge over there?
