Cheapest place to get winter clothings

[Ironstarz]

Anyone knows where to get winter clothings at decent price? In Singapore of cause.

You might want to note to choose those coats that are not too puffy. It makes it easier to move around and looks better too.

winter clothing are cheaper overseas when they have clearance sale. It is always more expensive here as we don't have the winter season

..and wider variety. But doubt TS have the time to wait until clearance sales in Europe.

Not to bad...more fashionable.

Like someone has pointed out...don't just go for thick but mainly polyester ones....go for the thinner wool or wool-blend which are warmer and lighter.

Singapore selection no good. Expensive, does not work and rather ugly.

 

If on F&E, would suggest get just enough cheap one here (to tong a bit traveling from airport to hotel to the shopping district) and spend a couple of hours in that country to buy.

 

10 degrees is ok. Don't buy those super thick ones. Layering is the best. Can peel off one or the other when it gets warm eg into a heated cafe. I usually just wear a tight t-shirt under my polo shirt add on my thin trusty autumn jacket hosay liao.

 

More fashionable ones can buy at Zara, Mango and last time Springfield.

 

The Wintertime that kind I also don't want to buy. So thick and bulky. Not cheap. Looks yucky.

I bought one colorful winter jacket from IMM to china last year for a business trip!

KNN, I stood out like a fish out of water while walking in china street.

People there wear their black or dark color leather jacket, or feather neck jacket.

While I was a cookoo bird in bright yellow and blue synthetic water proof jacket, and that stupid multiple-color useless glove that allows cold air to go thru!!!

 

Never felt so out of place I'm my whole life.

 

That night at the hotel went into a boutique over there, saw the prices is half price compared to Singapore!! Grab one standard in china winter wear and in a common color that will merge with the crowd.

 

Don't make the same mistake as me!!!

Best if can get at the local airport or nearby shop...definitely cheaper and more suitable with the rest of the crowd!!!
