Have searched the forum board and related topics seem to be rather out dated.

There seem to be a few areas which are suggested for outlet shopping: Fa Yuen STreet, Granville Road, Li Yuen STreet, Johnson Rd adn Lee Garden Road.

Could anyone advise which areas are actually good for toddlers clothing?

Also any idea of opening and closing times for these shops?

Thanks very much in advance for all advice and help
 
good shopping for kids is Stanley market. they close by 6.30 p.m.
Other places u mentioned no idea
 
Stanley Market. You'll find quite a good variety of children's clothing (baby & toddler). There are quite a few shops that I frequent for my kids' clothing. You get mostly export overruns --Carter's, Next, Jacadi, OshKosh, etc.

Some shops in Stanley are open by 10am. Not sure what time they close... 6pm?
 
Thanks very much for all the replies...I will be in HK for a short trip the following week so hoping to pick up some stuff for my 2 year old son....Most prob will be staying on HK island though...and as I only have a day for shopping, was originally not going to go to Stanley market as it seems rather far away....looks like I have to make a trip :-)

Sorry but could anyone give me more detailed instructions on where exactly in Stanley market the shops with stuff for kids are?

Southside and Buckeroo...would you mind sharing your fav shops?

p.s. Just in case I have time, any one other location I can try shopping at apart from Stanley market? Anywhere I could visit for reasonably priced toys/books and misc kid's stuff?
 
i think the name of the street is "old stanley street." it's an alley way with all children's clothing. if you get off at the bus terminal, walk down to the market by the taxi roundabout (the library municipal building is to your right). stay to your right, you'll pass by a flower shop and a couple of other children's clothing (don't buy from them!), you'll pass by the Salvation Army too and then just a bit further down on your left is the alley. You'll see it. There are tons of moms in there. It's cramped, but tons of great stalls!
 
It's not exactly easy to describe the shops in Stanley as most of them don't really have names... The only one that I think I can easily describe to you is one store on the main drag that sells Crocs... and LOTS of kiddie clothes. It's the only one that sells Crocs, so you won't miss this. They have nice Pottery Barn Kids stuff, among others.

The other ones that we frequent...I don't even know how to begin to tell you where they are. Stanley is not big and you will be able to do the rounds of shops in a couple of hours, I reckon. You will see plenty of shops that sell kids' clothing. Prices between the shops won't vary too much. Good luck.

About books, while you are in Stanley, I'd recommend making a short walk to Stanley Plaza where Book Buddy is. I love the books they have there.
 
Sorry, just saw southside852's post... the other shops that we like are in that alley that she just described. :)
 
Thanks very much Buckeroo and Southside852 for the detailed directions....really appreciate it!!!

Any chance these shops carry shoes too? My son has outgrown his current pair of clarks and the selection in Singapore is very small so hoping that I could pick up a replacement pair for him in Hong Kong....any dedicated Clarks shops? Read another thread which mentioned that the one at the Peak has closed :-(
 
Don't know about Clarks... you can try Sogo in Causeway Bay. The lane that southside852 described has two shoe shops. We've bought shoes from them and they're not bad. I was able to get a pair of leather sandals for my son and it was no more than HK$150 (can't remember exact price).
 
There is a Clark's outlet in Citygate, Tung Chung - has a decent selection of children's shoes, markdowns are from 30% up to 70%.
 
Thanks .... will try my luck at Sogo then (dun think I'll have time to get to citygate)...

Sorry if this is a silly question but will the shops have "summer clothes" notwithstanding its Winter/Spring in Hong Kong at the moment?

There seem to a number of ways to get to Stanley market...could I ask which is the fastest and approx how long the bus ride takes?
 
There are lots of shops that do sell summer clothes for kids in Fa Yuen Street, they open from 10:30-11am. I go there to buy stuff for my kids. However, Stanley Mkt. is definitely a lot better for a wider selection mentioned from the previous posts. I don't go there often b/c it's too far for me.
 
Depending on where you will be coming from, there are a number of ways to get to Stanley:

New World First Bus
To/From Stanley Market: 65 (Terminus: Exchange Square)
To/From Stanley Prison: 63 (Terminus: North Point Ferry Pier)
To/From Stanley Fort: 14 (Terminus: Grand Promenade)
To/From Stanley Plaza: 66 (Terminus: Exchange Square)

Citybus
To/From Stanley Market: 973 (Terminus: Tsim Sha Tsui)
To/From Stanley Prison: 6 6A 6X and 260 (Terminus: Exchange Square); 73 (Terminus: Cyberport); 314 (Terminus: Siu Sai Wan Bus Station)

Minibus
Between Chai Wan MTR Station and Stanley Market: 16M or 16X
Between Aberdeen and Stanley Prison: 52
Between Causeway Bay and Stanley Prison: 40
 
Wow Buckeroo...thank you veri very much for the detailed instructions. I'll be staying on Hong Kong Island near central I think....so i should take either the CityBus or the NewWorld First Bus from the Exchange Square terminus?


E-mum....for Fa Yuen Street, should I get off at Prince Edward or Mongkok? Are the baby shops along the whole stretch of Fa Yuen Street or only up to the Argyle Street Junction? Any shops in particular you would rec? Sorry for all the questions but with a toddler in tow, hoping to zero in on the right shops...

:thanks
