    For most of you out there, when you hear about this place the first thing that comes to you is that it's a "Sports Mall". Need no further elaboration on that.

    You can find many sporting brands up on the shelves such as Nike, Adidas, Umbro, Puma, Fila, Converse and many other regional brands. There are also shops selling casual and formal clothing.

    Prices here are lower by at least 15% from retail price, while most goods are on 20% discount. Certain shops operate under a same owner but different shop name so don't be surprised if you are served by the same salesperson you see at the other stall.

    Feeling hungry while shopping? Level 1 has a laksa stall, while a McDonald is available on level 2. Small bites are available at the central area of the mall on both level 1 and 2.

    I have been living around here so I haven’t had problems locating shops but if you’re coming here for the first time, familiarise yourself with the way as you may get lost here as mentioned before.

    But there are other facts you may not know as of yet. I'll let you in about it now. Other than sports equipments, it is also a convenient place where you can actually get services such as printing, photocopying, embroidery and trophies on level 3. Shops offering tee shirt printing are commonly seen too. It is also a great place to make your spectacles as there are many stalls (at least 5) operating on level 1, which makes it easier for you to see the different range of designs and comparison of prices. This is something most people fail to notice when they come here.

    With that I hope you will realise this place has much to offer, most Singaporean should at least made at least 1 trip here before. If not, what are you waiting for? (:

      Looking for a place to get sports apparels, with better bargains than you can get from sole distributors? Here's the place! (But don't have too high hopes though.)

      Personally, I would go all the way to the West (i'm at the east) to buy my sports shoes because there's a variety of designs to select from. Even the older designs can be found there too. Also, it is normally slightly cheaper than at the Nike/ Adidas retail stores for the new designs, and about 15% (or more) cheaper for the older designs! Apart from shoes, of course you can get your sportswear, socks, bottles and bags too. Yes, slightly cheaper for some! I was just there today and I got 15% off a bag that was released only recently!

      Other than that, they've got food stalls strategically situated at random places in the mall, convenient for "busy-shoppers". There are also several shops that sells casual wear, instead of just sports wear.

      Nonetheless, I find it pretty hard to find your way about. The shops are not very organized and it's normally hard to remember where you've been unless you remember the shop name. Also, some of the shops seem to be under the same owner, so prices are pretty standard there. However with the high traffic flow, service is pretty poor there I must say.

      Parking's a problem and it's extremely expensive. On a regular Saturday, 2.5 hours in the afternoon could cost you $5.10. You'd understand why I'd say it's expensive when you see the condition of the carpark.

      Minus the carpark problem, it's a place worth going to look for your sports apparels, and at a good deal! (;

        I'd go if the retail stores weren't having sales. But you're right about the older designs thing though :)

        some do, depending on what you buy. if it's nike/ adidas they'll accept i think. but when i asked this other shop-owner if they accept credit card, he asked me if i'm buying FBT. if so, no. haha.

      This is one of my friends' favorite shopping place. I'll usually accompany them there when I've the time. Was there recently to shop for clothes for the new year.

      Even though I had been there a few times, but I always still get lost in the maze like arrangement of the shops. Every corner I turn looks the same to me. Lucky I was with my friends. This I swear I'll never go on my own.

      There are many shops selling sports wear, fashionable male and female clothings and this is one mall you must go if you're looking for sports shoes. Due to the mixture of shops, Queensway Shopping Centre attracts many teens and young working adults to go shop for clothes and stuff.

      If you've never been there, go take a look.
