Hong Kong Trip Day #3   Sneaker Street

On my 3rd day in Hong Kong I swungby Sneaker Street with B, he wanted to check out the kicks. Sneaker Street is street dedicated to all sneakerheads, I believe it starts off at Fa Yuen Street in Mongkok, at least that’s where I always start. Sneaker Street has store after store of sneakers, it’s crazy but I find that a lot of the stores carry the same stuff – I didn’t buy sneakers that day. I noticed that sequins seems to be quite popular on sneakers in HK, not only did they have most of the Converse All Star Sequins sneakers I’ve mentioned previously, they also have similar ones by Hello Kitty. There’s also a very cute pair of Converse Wedge Sneakers available at Dahood (funny name haha), I’m debating on getting them – what you guys think?

  • Ashley says:

    Is the exchange rate good in HK? I def like the wedge converse too.

  • Anne says:

    Yeah, the Converse Wedges are soo cool!!! I love to wear Converse with a pretty and cute dress, but sometimes this is not as dressy as required for some occasions. So they would make the perfect compromise, wouldn’t they?
    Of course they would also look fantastic with a classic black leggings! Love them!♥

  • amie says:

    the converse wedges are definitely hot. they were only released in japan but i was able to cop them in l.a. at a japanese owned sneaker shop. they’re just as comfy as the originals. get em!

  • superfresh says:

    i think the converse wedges are cute, go for it!

  • carmenkwan says:

    how odd! i am traveling in hk too…and checking your website while you are posting in hk. anyway, i dont look half as stylish as you are while traveling, in fact, i look quite dowdy most of the time compared to the trendy people here. i am overwhelmed by the amount of choices when it comes to shopping here, hope you will have better luck! more shopping tomorrow!
