Where can I get decent travel gear in Beijing?

[pouli200x]

Hi, I'm looking to get a decent travel rucksack and walking boots in Beijing, does anyone with some Bj knowledge know of good places? Genuine stuff rather than fakes is certainly my preference. (I do know it will be pricey)

Hope someone can help! Thanks:)

There's a shop in Wudaokou that caters to hikers. Don't know the name but it is the same building as Watson's.

with all the fake stuff running around Beijing, the only place i trust is Decathlon. Great gear at reasonable prices..

They have two shops in the capital, one is on the south side of the 4th ring road next to the Yansha outlets, the other i'm not sure about but you can get the address for both from thebeijinger.com

thanks for the replies guys, however i'm not that knowledgeable regarding Beijing geography and tend to go everywhere on the subway...are they easy or difficult to get to?

Decathlon is a great place. I especially like the Quechua brand; I believe the brand is Spanish owned, and you have a line of boots and hiking gear from quite cheap to quite expensive.

You can take line 13 to Wudaokou.

Thanks for the advice everybody, I really appreciate it. Should keep me busy for a day looking for/around these places

Cheers!
