Crocs: now open in Mubarkiya

CROCS successfully opened its 7th store located in Souk Al Mubarkiya on June 11, 2012, a branch that is of great sentimental value to Ali Abdulwahab Al-Mutawa Commercial Co. Back in the 1930’s, the late Ali Abdulwahab Al-Mutawa had opened his very first trading location, which specialized in food products and textiles, in this specific branch at Souk Al Mubarkiya. Over 70 years later, the legacy lives on as the store has been transformed to operate the CROCS brand.

Today, the CROCS store is flourishing with life reflecting the blend of history with modernity, and bringing a ray of light to Souk Al Mubarkiya with its vibrant colors and styles. It is a microcosm of Kuwait today; bridging the gap between development, modernity, and local culture and tradition. CROCS’ new store blends in with this ambience, balancing the present with the past, as it preserves the souq’s traditional exterior architecture, and portrays contemporary twenty-first century modernity in its interior.  

CROCS’ expansion into this strategic location illustrates the bond between the past, present and future, which holds an inordinate significance to Kuwait, and Ali Abdulwahab Al-Mutawa Commercial Co. To learn more about Crocs visit www.crocs.com.kw , or call Crocs Mubarkiya at 22461823.

I will drop a visit to the new Crocs store for a full review, soon! stay tuned :)

Review: Mada ISDN – @Mada_Kuwait

  

A generous gift that I have received from Mada (ISP) two days ago, a bag including “Mada SOHO” router and landline phone set. I took few shots while I was installing the package to try the ISDN service, which will provide you with a landline phone based on Mada’s router. The setup was so easy, just plug the router to a power socket, connect your phone to the router.. and thats it! However, you should be familiar with setting up the router access credentials to be able to change the default Hotspot name and WEP key to your own.. if you weren’t, just follow the included guide! :)

Above, is the Mada SOHO router, that you might already be familiar with

As you can see above, Connected to Mada WiMax netwrok, the WiFi is on, and the “Phone” light is on (in blue), this means that the ISDN line service is active.

Connected the router to the phone.. I mean “The PINK phone” :p 
The funny thing is that I got a “PINK” phone, while PINK GIRL and JACQUI got YELLOW phones..
Looking at the bright side, its a phone that works :P

A trial call, calling from my cell to the new ISDN line

This is a service that will come in handy to manage your small business, coming with a reasonable yearly subscription. Here is a LINK to Mada’s website including service usage instructions, and pricing.

Saher Allail 3 Promo

I saw this promo on NY Stranger blog, which took me to the youtube page of the video.. of course, some of the comments were really offensive from every side either supporting the historical events covered by the new Saher Allail series, or praising Saddam and the Iraqi invasion on Kuwait. Anyway, can’t wait to watch the upcoming Saher Allail sequel. Here’s the promo:

The new Nike Store – Al.Bedaa

I wrote in my previous post about the invitation I have received for the opening of the new Nike store in Al.Bedaa, and I was lucky enough not to miss it :) I came late as usual and missed the outdoor event, as I was looking for a place to park my car in. The store is the 5th in Kuwait and is literally “awesome”; two floors full of the usual cool stuff for men & women.

I took a tour around the store and took some shots, here they are :)

A self portrait that I have taken, wearing the T-shirt I got with the invitation :)
