Before Christmas, someone’s wish list might include the latest high-tech gadgets, luxury timepieces or designer bags. But it never fails: after enjoying all the sumptuous holiday treats of noche buena, the only thing on everyone’s wish list is to lose all those Christmas pounds.
“Not everyone might believe this, but losing all those Christmas pounds is just as simple as going outside,” says Roel Chan, brand manager of Recreational Outdoor exchange (or R.O.X., for short).
Known as the biggest outdoor sports and recreational hub in Asia, R.O.X. offers three levels of outdoor sports recreation gear and equipment — everything from hiking, climbing, surfing and cycling to birdwatching (believe it or not). Its flagship store at Bonifacio High Street is a playground for those who wish for an active lifestyle as they carry international brands like Oxbow, Columbia, Nalgene, Snow Peak, Lafuma, HiTec, Salomon, The North Face, Design Go and Sanuk.
“Nowadays, having an active lifestyle is not just about being good at sports like basketball or volleyball. There are a lot of fun ways to get a workout like surfing, spelunking or skateboarding. You can find one that fits your personality the best to motivate you to getting back in shape after the holidays,” says Chan.
R.O.X. is the biggest outdoor travel superstore in Southeast Asia. For product information, call (02)856-4639, e-mail rox.cs@primergrp.com, visit roxphilippines.multiply.com or visit B1, Bonifacio High Street, Global City, Taguig.
