While plenty of tourists from temperate countries flock to humid Singapore for sweet respite from the cold weather, many Singaporeans fly up north in search of frosty winter wonderlands.
To gear yourself up to combat the huge drop in temperatures, don’t miss Winter Time’s midnight sales on 7th & 8th December at Citimac Industrial Building (#01-16), near MacPherson. They’re offering up to 80% off winter necessities — from high-quality luggages to down jackets and parkas at ridiculously low prices.
Since the building will be undergoing an en-bloc sale soon, everything must go! With this rare opportunity, you can stock up on all the winter wear you’ll need for the next few years like a true blue kiasu Singaporean.
Whether you’re heading to a private ski resort in Canada or catching Sakura blossoms in Japan next February, you’ll find a treasure trove of winter essentials.
The hall’s layout is organised in different categories like Parkas (5°C and above), Down Parkas (0°C and below), Thermal Wear, Footwear, Hats and Scarves, and Leggings for the convenience of kiasu shoppers hoarding winter apparel for the entire family.
Love the snow, but fear the cold? You won’t have to wrap up like a bazhang or spam cups of hot wine as you stroll through festive Christmas markets if you’re equipped with quality down jackets. 90% down & 10% feather jackets to be exact.
The Down Parkas section’s colourful range of winter coats work for almost any occasion, and will most definitely keep you snug without compromising on your fashion sense.
You can choose from outerwear like the Polyester Parka ($25, U.P. $109), Reversible Parka ($35, U.P. $159) and Child Sweaters ($25 Onwards).
Don’t miss these Sherlock-esque trenchcoats to achieve a stylish and chic look.
Winter Time’s not lacking in any winter essentials — including winter boots, gloves and shawls. Their wide range of kiddo-sized apparel is perfect to ensure your little mini-mes running around in the snow don’t catch a cold.
Thrill-seekers and amateurs with plans to ski or snowboard overseas will be happy to find that they’re stocked with leather gloves and touchscreen-friendly knitwear. This means you can still press play on your iPads for your little ones’ Baby Shark videos, even with your gloves on.
Everyone needs winter boots to survive a slushy trek to the subway. Lucky for us, these durable boots are up for grabs at an insane price of $25.
Braving the cold isn’t just all about the outerwear. Singaporeans who are used to the comforting warmth of our tropical sun and humidity are advised to pack on the thermal layers. We’re talking thicc but affordable Long Johns ($8, U.P. $23.90) and Tights ($10).
Whether you’re staying indoors or braving the cool winds as you ride down ski lifts, these snuggly shawls will shield your delicate shoulders from the less than chill breezes.
If you need supersized luggages to store your gigantic winter wardrobe and tons of souvenirs, they’ve got you covered.
Compact and sturdy carry-on luggages start from just $49.
The best part? In addition to their extremely low prices, those who spend more stand to redeem free luggage, backpacks and more.
