Forums > Living in Kunming > Good Jogging/running shoes

does anybody know whether it's advisable to buy a pair of running shoes in chengdu or in kunming? need to buy a new pair and live in chengdu but will be visiting kunming in a few weeks so i could wait til then. i don't need anything special, just sturdy and comfortable and size 40 women's, but i have a tight budget (under 300 kuai, although under 200 would be even better) so i'm thinking a good chinese brand would be the way to go, li ning or peak? does anybody have experience with either of these? where should they be bought?
