I am tempted to go again, but have to check the weather forecast indefinitely! Never go during summer .....

Just came back yesterday. Weather was okay, with slight rain on a few days. Thankfully, it rained on days when we were in malls.

Shopping-wise; Harbour City is better. Maybe because there's one G2000 outlet there. Citygate is not bad, but Adidas/Nike/Puma's selections were so-so. Ended up buying Timberland shoes, and some other random items.

Esprit's in Mong Kok, Tsim Sha Tsui, Citygate, and some other places too.

Went all the way to Wharf Road in North Point, but don't waste your time .... the Nike outlet there has practically nothing. Adidas outlet has moved.

G2000 outlet in Mong Kok's Argyle St has moved away. Only in Harbour City. Limited selection, but can still buy coats/jackets from HKD370 onwards, work shirts about HKD99 onwards, pants from about HKD129 onwards.

Oh, SOGO has appreciation sale! MADNESS at the Causeway Bay outlet. JAM-PACKED! But really good sale, even cheaper than outlet stores sometimes. Braun Buffel had up to 50% for bags and 30% for wallets, Adidas/Nike too had discount.

But the craziest part was the cosmetic section. Could not even walk pass ....
