How to find us

We are at the entrance gate of Tuân Cáo village (Ninh Thắng, Hoa Lư), on the main road that runs from Ninh Bình city into Tam Cốc — you pass us on the way to the pier, and the turn-off towards Hang Múa is nearby. The store is the stone building with a glass front right by the village gate. Bicycles and scooters can park in front; taxi and Grab drivers find it by the Vietnamese address, or use the Directions button above.

Inside The Gate Tam Cốc: racks of jackets and fleece in front of a wall with a kayak and the store name

What we sell

Clothing made in Vietnamese factories for international outdoor and casual brands, sold from the surplus of those export runs — the same construction as the branded item, without the brand's retail price. Because it is surplus, sizes and colours come and go; what you see below is what the store holds right now.

Outdoor jackets, fleece, vests and windbreakers — worth having for a dawn boat trip from October to March
Trekking trousers, cotton tees, polos and shorts for the Hang Múa steps and cycling between the villages
Hats, socks, gloves and scarves; UV-protective tops in summer
Prices are printed on the tag in Vietnamese đồng; cash and Vietnamese bank transfer at the counter

Sizing follows the original brand's run, so a European "M" and a Korean "M" can differ — please try on. Staff speak basic English; a translation app works fine for the rest.
