In actuality they are factory outlets, which offer overruns and seconds on export garments at bargain prices. The foreign store and foreign currency price tag often is still on the item ... i.e., US$ 65 ... with the Rp price next to it ... Rp 45,000 (US$4.50).
Local production for the local market is offered in the shops as well ... with very different quality. Buyer beware ... because some of the stores also sell fakes along with the factory seconds.
Asking the shops in Jakarta if they are branches of Bandung stores, few would admit it ... but a lot of them are selling the same items ... usually for the same price in Jakarta as Bandung. Enjoy bargain hunting!

Getting to Bandung
From Jakarta to Bandung there are two trains with executive class service which boasts nice reclining seats and air conditioning. The Parahyangan train costs slightly less and leaves Jakarta very frequently, but takes over 3 1/2 hours. For train schedules and routes of the national railway, see Kereta Api Indonesia.
You can be met at the train station by a Golden Bird rented limousine. The drivers are familiar with the location of all the most popular factory outlet shops. Grab a quick bite to eat at McDonald's ... then start shopping. While in Bandung you can visit angklung factory, wayang golek factory, or take a historical tour organized by Bandung Trails.
