Cheaper Sandugo Sporting and Hiking Gear at Factory Outlets!

While on my usual cycling routine around Marikina, I always noticed this big Sandugo store along Sumulong Highway since late last year. I finally decided to stop by and take a look a few days ago.
Lo and behold, I found some pretty awesome deals!

Not impressed at the start, I only saw what I expected to see- shoes, sandals, clothes, bags, etc. Their typical merchandise you can find at malls. The only difference is that they have more variants here.

Yes, unimpressed- until I saw the prices of the products just when I was about to leave.

Dry fit shirts for ₱120? Durable sandals for ₱195? Travel shoes for ₱700-1,000? Whoa.

I was dumbfounded on how affordable the items there were compared to those from competing brands, and even items from Sandugo stores themselves found in malls.

I asked around, and it turns out that when you buy at 'factory outlets' like this one, a lot of the merchandise have a 20-30% discount. Probably because of the lesser overhead and operational costs.
There are other factory outlets scattered in the country, but I couldn't find a complete list. Just that, besides the one in Sumulong, I do know there's one along Manggahan Pasig, Poblacion and Davao City.

Anyway, if you're in need for sports, camping and travel gear, check this place out!
