This store is consignment for the most part - so dont expect them to have a full size run of whatever you're looking for. That said, they often WILL have that pair you missed out on cos it was sold out the moment it released. Trust Gabbys to be holding that grail you've been looking for!!! Best to keep updated with their social media accounts for the latest and greatest and message them ahead if you are looking for something in particular. IG: gabbysoset_shaw FB: Gabby's Closet Manila --CONSIGNMENT--- being a consignment store means they also accept anything you might have to sell! Provided it fits their genre (so dont be consigning those joints you got on sale at nike factory store ). Gabbys offers 20% on shoes and 30% on everything else (meaning you set the price - they get 20 or 30% of the sale).

My boyfriend is a big sneaker fan and when a new pair drops, he likes to drag me to check them out…read more One of them shoe stores we frequent is Sneak Peek in EDSA Shangri-La Plaza in Mandaluyong. It's right across his office and a few blocks away from mine so we end up going to this shop once in a while. What I noticed about Sneak Peek is that they carry a pretty wide variety of shoe brands. They have the usual suspects like Nike, Adidas, New Balance and Supra but they also carry edgier brands like Tretorn, G-Star Raw, Mr. Lacy and Brixton. Apart from sneaks, they also sell sunglasses, caps and socks! Pretty awesome place to do some serious shoe shopping!

What's better than an Adidas store? What's better is an Adidas OUTLET store. Yes, Adidas can be…read morepretty pricey and you would definitely need to shell out a lot of money for cool new kicks or a hip sports jacket, but why not check out an outlet store and see all the (still) cool and hip stuff that are sold with great quality? I for one, am definitely thankful for this store. I have not one but 4 members of my family who are Adidas addicts. I can see why because they certainly have great stuff but it's personally not my style so I buy other and cheap workout gear that won't burn holes in my wallet and pockets. An outlet store won't so every time there's a birthday or it's Christmas, I always visit this branch. They have great discounts (up to 70% off during sale season) and you can even call them beforehand to ask if they have a certain model you want.

I pass by Judelle's all the time when I head to Cubao Expo to day drink. I enjoy checking their…read morenewest displays and going through their items on sale. Sometimes they'll have over the top and super fake Nikes and other brands for 300php or lss. Their more generic shoes go as low as 150php when on sale. I've eyed a couple of pairs a few times but never really convinced nyself to buy it (I'm a very calculated shopper). I'm still waiting for plain canvas shoes that I could pass off as Keds or Advans on sale. I saw a few pairs for men before. They have everything from rubber slippers to leather shoes at lower prices. And even if you don't buy anything, it's always fun going through some of their outrageous inventory.

Really worth a visit, even though Marikina is not next e.g. to Makati. Indeed, some hope that not all is lost in Marikina's once famous shoe industry. Good luck to the Black Wing team for the future.

Nike doesn't need any explaining. One of the world's largest supplier of athletic shoes and sports…read moreapparel sponsors many athletes and sports teams around the world, that's why we all know nike and that's why many of us like nike. After watching shia labeouf saying 'Just do It' for over a minute, I somehow felt like visiting the Nike store last time I was in SM Aura. They don't carry all brands here (e.g. Nike Golf, Nike Pro, Nike+, Air Jordan, Nike Blazers, Air Force 1, Nike Dunk,Air Max, Foamposite, Nike Skateboarding), they mainly focus on running shoes. I just love how Nike showcases all their shoes on the wall. It makes it so easy to have a look at the shoes you like and this makes for a great shopping experience. The staff lets you browse around without bothering you, but are there to help you if you want to try on some shoes. Just a great experience, so go and visit, just do it!

#SwooshLove is one of the ways I like to describe myself. I might not show it often to my friends,…read morebut I love frequenting blogs that show the latest shoes by the sporting apparel giant that is Nike. My brother loves it just as much, and even says "Nike" in place "Just do it" to us siblings when he's asking for a favor (not the best way to ask for a favor, by the way). Nike has got the most popular sporting or working out apparel in the Philippines, if not the world. I literally can't go out without seeing at least one Nike product, be it a shirt, cap, pair of shoes, bag, etc. Aside from their workout apparel, people have been buying casual wear from Nike as well, particularly their SB and Janoski selections. Their shoes are of incredibly high quality and last years with proper use. While I like this branch (it's right next to an Adidas and New Balance so there's plenty to look at and compare), there are plenty of outlet stores out there, so find one and join the #SwooshLove movement!

The usual case is that I outgrew my shoes, that's right, I use my rubber shoes so often that I actually outgrew them. Ever since I had to bury my last pair of shoes six feet under I found myself being drawn to to stores that sold rubber shoes. I'm a guy who likes distance running. I run at least four kilometers when I go out. I've been going to one store to another to look for something real good at a real nice price. Sports Central is nothing special in terms of what it offers. It offers basically the same brands compared to other sporting goods stores that have multiple brands. What I like about it though is the feel. It feels upscale and even has interactive touchscreen computers to give out info. on their products. It's a fun place to shop is my point.
