Onitsuka Tiger Concept Store with Embroidery Service?!

If you’re into sneakers, this flagship store in Chengdu is a must-visit! The space is huge, modern, and feels more like an art gallery than a shoe shop. Two full floors of sneakers, apparel, and tons of limited-edition designs you don’t normally see elsewhere.

I went in for another pair of Mexico 66 (can never have too many 😅) and ended up customizing mine with a little panda embroidery 🐼. The staff guided me through the customization zone upstairs, and the result came out so clean, now my pair feels totally unique.

✨ Fun fact: this embroidery/custom service is only available in select concept stores in China, including Chengdu IFS and Shanghai Zhangyuan. So if you’re here, don’t miss the chance!

One small downside: the service can feel a bit pushy at times, and after the purchase it felt like the sales staff just closed the deal and didn’t really bother much with aftersales. Not a big deal if you’re confident in what you want, but something to be prepared for.

Tips if you go:
• Go early, especially if you’re eyeing limited editions.
• Think of a design or motif before customizing.
• Double-check stock & sizing before adding embroidery.

Overall, it’s not just shopping, it’s an experience. The customization makes it extra special, just go in with clear expectations.
