Golf Stuffs in Korea

Going to Seoul next month. Would golf stuffs (esp Japan brands) be cheaper? Any idea where to shop for golf clubs? TIA

Just returned from there 2 weeks agp but didn't get to see much variety of stuff. Maybe cos i didn't visit specialist shops, only the "golf levels" of major shopping malls. In any case you can get some different branded apparels from Seoul not available here. Didn't see any nice equipment though.

In terms of price, Japan's actually cheaper than Korea (I was in Tky the same week and their golf shops rock! Six storeys of golf stuff in one building!)

Do you know near which train station? Thanks

Yes, any information on how to get there would be great. Heading to Seoul in a few days time and definitely in the hunt for bargain apparels and bags.

Thanks!!

Try Mario outlet in Seoul. They have golf stuff there, at outlet price of course.

Went to Mario outlet today. They have a lot of apparel but not much equipment. Prices are quite high too in my opinion.

For non-golf stuff, it's winter season so yeah. Mostly winter clothes on sale. Even the golf apparel is for cold weather

HI browncow. I'm sorry for your disappointing trip to Mario, I know it's a bit out of the way from city centre. Hope it's not solely based on my suggestion .
It's true the prices are not cheap. But you can get relatively good deals for Jap or Korean brands like Pearly Gates and MU Sports at a good discount (though still expensive!) and there's a few department stores there selling different stuff.

Anyways, hope you can get the stuff you are looking for. Cheers mate.

Hi kyleyann, no worries. Not looking for anything in particular and my female companions enjoyed the other stuff available. Cheers.

Anyway the long distance bus that took me back to Seoul after a ski trip nearby dropped us off at a metro station called Mapo. I saw that there were a cluster of golf shops there but didn't have a chance to check them out cause it was after hours already. Just FYI for anyone who might want to know.
