The young woman at the register shoved her phone in my face saying you can see it's fake it's pink and purple, they started laughing at me.

I've only been once to this shop since its move to here, but I have been to Total Football on many…read moreoccasions in its old location. With its move it has become a bit more specialised in kits for teams (if you want a team kit this is the place to go) and has gone a bit more up market, but I'll give a review of how it was and if anything is no more it should be updated. For those fed up with Sports Direct and in need of some expert guidance this may be a more helpful place to visit. It does cover more high end goods here (boots start at about £40), but these are the higher quality boots. In general the stock is reasonably priced, but held back a bit by a lack of range. However, if you tell the staff what you need you're likely to walk out with it after not very long due to the superior knowledge of these staff. Admittedly, I get my boot from Sports Direct, but if its good service you are after you must come here.

I get really sentimental when I walk past Route One because it reminds me of being about 15 and…read morereally fancying skater boys with curly hair and beany hats and trainers that look like cartoons. We would sit in the middle of route one on the shoe trying-on bit (could someone let me know what the real name for this is, please?) and watch out "boyfriends" try on Vans jumpers and stare longingly at wheels for skateboards. I have no use for it now as I don't try and pick up teenagers that often, but it still makes me happy that it's there.

I used to think Route One was the coolest, most interesting shop in the world. I no longer think…read morethis, but I do still receive their quarterly catalogue through the door from those 14/15 year old days. It's mostly skating apparel, including jeans of all fits, baggy t-shirts, beanies and, of course, hoodies. Hardly any of the styles or brands are my thing at all anymore, but a lot of people of all ages are into it and Route One is a great place to visit to find stuff like this. They also sell all you need to set up a decent skateboard, including good bearings and trucks as well as tool kits to make life easier setting them up. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable about this sort stuff so if it's your thing then it's the place to come.

In sale time they're not exactly bad, but they are reasonable prices and really what you would expect to pay outside of the sale times with a few items being the exceptions and being very good deals. Outside of sale times there isn't particularly much reason to come here. I know sports direct doesn't offer the same quality of service, but it really is worth the cheaper prices to sacrifice the quality and when it comes to price this shop fails badly compared to Sports Direct. Don't get me wrong this place isn't bad value it's just that there is a lot cheaper just down the road.

It's perhaps slightly worrying that as I get older, in a sort of inverse ageing effect I find…read moremyself wearing tracky bottoms more and more. I very rarely leave the house with them on, but as soon as I get in from work, more often than not, I fire on a nice pair of Umbros, and doss down on my bed. Being set in EH12, Brandshop isn't half as neddy as most sports store, and stocks trainers, t-shirts and all the type of sporting goods that don't really require being into sport to wear. I might actually snap up a pair of Nike trackies one day, as they'll be (very) marginally more socially acceptable to be seen with in public.

They sell a huge selection of all types of sport clothes, I was very impressed by the massive selection of multi colored converse. You could have one pair for every day on the calendar.

I was approached for help twice. Staff was friendly and not overbearing. In the states the sales racks are called out clearly but here you need to dig through the items to locate the sale. Kinda embarrassing as I felt like a damn squirrel digging for bits and nuts. This is important to me as the exchange rate isn't in the USA favor so I would prefer to pay a sales price which equates to regular after the exchange--- ya dig? Anyhow I was informed sales differ store to store. This peeved me a bit as the jacket I had spied online for a good discount of 40% was still in the store for full price. Doesn't equate in my brain. They don't honor online prices, either. Overall good experience and glad to be informed on how pricing works. Guess I will order the jacket online this evening without dealing with exchange rate, free shipping, at a great discount and from the comfort of my snuggly hotel bed.

Okay, so the reviews below have pretty much got this business covered…read more But I have a little nugget of information about this place which needs to be shared. Not only do they sell a wide range of Ugg boots - metallic silver and gold styles included - they also sometimes include them in very generous sales. So every once in a while it's worth popping into Greaves, heading up to the second or third floor, and checking out the state of their Ugg prices. One time I was greeted with a beautiful pair of gold Uggs for the bargain price of £60. Let me put this in context for you, they're normally a HUNDRED and sixty. Sadly, they only had them in size 8. I did try them on, but even I had to concede that with my size five feet I looked like a clown. Definitely worth checking though!

I've been there a few times, and every time, I found exactly what I was looking for, and that I could not find elsewhere. From gift rugby/football jerseys to swimming or running equipment, I always found exactly what I was there for. The staff is very friendly and takes the time to help you properly. The range of brands and items is not as large as in other stores (but if you want more choice, their other glasgow store is a bit bigger I think!), but it is still 4 stories of products and as I said, there will be what you are after! (Ok, you can blame me if it's not the case:)) In terms of price, well it's all mainly big brands, so you won't find cheap deals there, but you can be certain it's going to be top quality.

I first came across this boutique after the recent Yelp event (which was extremely fun and…read morefabulous!) and, after having a wee trial of their 'Hot Wax' waxing system, I decide to pay them another visit for a spot of pampering and de-fuzzing! I was extremely well looked after from the minute I arrived, and the salon room was clean, well decorated and very relaxing! Now, I will not go into details about the actual treatment (there are some aspects of girly grooming that really need to remain a secret!) but the hot wax felt strangely nice, and while it wasn't entirely pain-less, it was certainly nicer than my past waxing experiences! After my treatment I was given after-care advice, and they followed up with an e-mail to make sure I knew what I was doing. I liked it so much I booked my return visit on the spot! In addition to the pampering side, the Boutique also has a wonderful lingerie/swimwear shop, and carries a range of very beautifully designed 'toys' which would look more at home on a stylish coffee table, than in the bottom drawer of you bedside table! The lingerie, products and salon treatments are more expensive than I would normally pay, however, the warmth, friendliness and professionalism of the staff and general gorgeousness of the Boutique will keep me coming back again and again!

I love Odyssey Boutique. I do like a wander in the West End Village and I always pop in to see…read morewhat's new. This is seriously gorgeous lingerie and they are high end labels: Pleasure State, Stella McCartney, Fauve, Mimi Holiday as well as Fantasie and more. It's the lingerie that lures me in and they cater for all sizes which is fab and not always found on the high street. You do pay more for these brands but the quality and service is excellent. If you are larger in the bust department, then this is the place to come for some seriously sexy undies. Sarah, the owner can provide fittings if required and if you don't see your size then just ask as it may be in the stock room. A good range of bra size swimwear, as well as beauty treatments is also available. The sale is great - a proper sale with fab discounts and after the weekend, my bank account is pretty depleted. What's not to love!?
