Hiya

I need to get some decent travel gear for an upcoming trip. Anyone know of any outdoorsy kind of shops where I can get things such as a pair of Reefs or Tevas? Either genuine or decent rip offs. Not fussy. I've only been in Hanoi for a few days and I'm surrounded by tourist tat.

Thanks
Jo

p.s frick me. How hot is this place?!!

Keep looking round the old quarter where you are in Hanoi there are a few good shops. It's best to get it there unless you want to go far out to the large supermarkets where it is more expensive.

Don't accept the 1st or second price they offer you and be ready to haggle though.

Thanks BenE. Guess I'll have to wear some shoe leather looking around. I've see a few shops selling a version of Teva sandals, but not a brand I've heard of. I'll take another look around.

Cheers
Junan
