Where is the DARIMATI HYROX training shoe pop-up in Hyundai Department Store Pangyo Branch?

DARIMATI, the HYROX shoe brand, is running its pop-up right in front of Nike on the 4th floor of Hyundai Department Store Pangyo Branch. It runs from Sep 7 to the 20th, and it's already halfway over ㅠㅠ

DARIMATI apparently started as a brand connecting 'bridge legs' and 'leg legs'! And it got even more famous after being worn by the number-one CrossFit athlete!

One whole wall was lined with sneakers on display

Up front they were selling DARIMATI's main model, the BR-001, along with running essentials like the running cap, running belt, pocket running towel, and even T-shirts. The T-shirt fabric felt so cool and breathable, it seemed perfect for actual running!

How did DARIMATI BR-001 in gray 240 fit wide feet?

I tried on DARIMATI's main model, the BR-001. The left one is beige and the right one is gray. Personally, I thought gray looked way prettier. My usual clothing style leans more toward gray than beige too, so I picked gray without a second thought!

My feet are on the wider side, so I usually wear a 240 to keep any shoe comfortable. I tried the DARIMATI BR-001 in 240 too, and since it's said to have a wider toe box, it was genuinely comfortable!

They say it's suited for everything: burpees or non-motorized treadmills that need strong grip, lunges and squats that need stable balance, shuttle runs and box jumps that need rebound and ground-cutting power, and hybrid training like ski erg or rowing machines!

What comes in the 149,000 won Chuseok bundle at the Pangyo pop-up?

They were only running the Chuseok special deal on-site at the Hyundai Pangyo pop-up. A pair of BR-001s plus a running cap and a shoelace/insole set for ₩149,000, a 32% discount! The shoes alone are ₩139,000, and since the cap is normally ₩37,000, getting it for ₩10,000 was a chance I couldn't pass up, so I grabbed the cap too!

The running cap is the one sitting behind the shoe!

I tried it on and it was genuinely light and genuinely comfortable. My head is on the bigger side••••••••ㅜㅜ but the strap adjustment in the back was easy, so I think I'll definitely wear it while running.

The 30-second rowing machine race and weekend events at the pop-up

They were also running a 30-second rowing machine race! You sprint for 30 seconds — 100 meters for women, 150 meters for men — and follow their Instagram to enter. If you hit that distance within 30 seconds, you get an entry into a lucky draw!

There's a rowing machine right in front of the pop-up where you do it! The staff were super friendly with instructions, so even though I'm not great at it, I gave it a shot. On Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th, there's a DARIMATI Family Sports Day from 2-4pm and a DARIMATI x Hyundai Fitness Race from 4:30-6:30pm, held in a bigger space!

BR-001 Core Black pre-order and sizes 290 and 300

The BR-001 Core Black is launching next month in October, and you can pre-order it at the Hyundai Pangyo pop-up, limited to 200 pairs! The black colorway also comes in sizes 290 and 300, so men who wear 280 and up shouldn't have to worry about sizing.

The very next day, today, I wore them and finished a workout, indoors but still done!

With great grip and stability, I'd recommend DARIMATI's BR-001 for HYROX, CrossFit, F45, running, and general gym workouts alike!
