|
|
I'm planning on doing some serious backpacking and leaving straight from Korea(so can't get this stuff at home). So I am looking for a place anyone may know to buy good backpacks(women's) and other backpacking or travel items. If anyone knows of a place or a website - it would be much appreciated. |

can't be that hard. if there's anything koreans are known for it is backpacking and "roughing" it. |

There are a couple of shops right outside of Namdemun market (they sell a lot of Western packs and camping gear). I can't remember which gate it is, but it's right out of the main subway exit (to the left, as opposed to the right going into the market). |

Check out www.MEC.ca. They've got a million backpaks to choose from, they're of excellent quality and set at a decent price. They will ship to most countries in the world. |

There are some shops (Millet, K2, etc.) outside Suyu Station near the Outback Steakhouse. They are top of the line and pricey. Suraksan station has some, too, they are by a hiking mountain. Dongdaemun stadium is bound to have some, too, they have everything sports related. |
