Day 2 - Shopping in East District near Zhongxiaodunhua Station (東區 忠孝敦化站)

Not sure where people go shopping in Taipei but there were lots of shops near RF Hotel.  All about a minute walk away.  Streets line with shops for shoes, women/men clothing and even toys.

The first shop I went to was Amai (Buy 21)and their shoes have biggest sizes like size 41.  Knee high boots were just around NT$1500.  Obviously not real leather shoes but pretty well made with a soft comfy sole.

Have been spammed by Airspace (Buy 22) ads on FB and IG.  Finally, I get to see their shop and feel their clothes before buying.  While the clothings look normal online, their quality isn't really that good at touch.  There  are 3  Air Space stores there.  2 for the general size girls and 1  for plus size.

There were several shops selling figures.  I guess it's for the guys to check out while waiting for their girlfriends to shop in  the area.  I was quite disappointed by the clothings there in general.  The quality is really poor.  I guess we have grown up and just rather pay a little more for better fitted clothings and fabric.
