Thanks mate, Any clue as to what to budget?

No bro.... But they have some stuff that would last you quite a bit... Even Woodland's would have some good hiking gear.

I'll be going there this evening.

Is that the place with the "hard rock" cafe in it? If so thats about 5 minutes from where i live.

I went up to the mall today and guess ? A fashion show in the mall!!!

Anyways the store was a tiny lil one with not much choice, so i went up to "stop and shop" store to the right and picked up my stuff.

Thanks for the help guys

Hey Sash, you got a backpack at Shoppers' Stop? Was it a big trekking pack or was it just a normal backpack? And what was the cost?

Hi, if looking for budget options, you can go to Abids main road. There will be lots of luggage shops (opposite to Hollywood Shoes). Also try to find Ibrahim Brothers shop - we got out rucksacks from there, and got good stuff: hardy, proper shape, double aluminium frame, raincover.
We had bought in bulk and got them for 1500/- a piece.
Also, check out the Woodland store near Nagarjuna circle - I saw a good rucksack there for 4000/-. Maybe you'll get lucky and they'll have a sale going on
