When I walked inside, a worker approach me and asked if I needed any help. I told her I was just browsing first and she let me shop. The store isn't that big inside but they have a lot of products. I saw a nice shirt for my wife meant for working out so I got that for her. I saw some cute infant clothing so I got that for my daughter. I looked at the attire for mens but nothing grab my attention. The prices were reasonable especially since some items were on sale. The checkout process was easy and the guy behind the counter was great. We had small chat since he knew I was a tourist.

A fairly cool Adidas store on the lower floor of The O2 Arena, next to big rivals Nike and the main…read moreentrance to the "Arena" part of the O2 Arena where you'd go if you're watching a performer. This store might not be as large as other Adidas stores but it still has a decent range of products for the size of the store in a pretty decent and modern feel to it - unlike Nike next store who honestly have used the hideous "running" store concept here, Adidas seems to be more generic, selling football jerseys from the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United (Booooo!) who they have contracts to supply the team's official clothing ranges, considering they spend a lot of money on this, these are products you'd expect to find in every store but surprisingly this isn't something Nike does. They did have a decent range of everything else, as with these retailers they didn't seem to stock many discounted products compared to generic retailers such as JD and Sports Direct - which is a shame considering the close proximity to the Outlet mall which is located so close, this store could even be a part of it. Staff again lacking but I found this to be typical for the area and many establishments in London which is a shame. 3* - One of the better stores within this O2 Arena complex but still could be greatly improved upon.

Oddly enough, there is always that one or two things that didn't survive the last trip. I needed to get some additional gear for my trip and randomly came across Finches in Forest Hill. Tucked right across from the Forest Hill station, this is a really big shop that specialises in all things ski and snowboard related. The staff are really friendly, but nowhere near as friendly as the shop dogs, especially their golden lab! All the staff were really helpful, pointed me in the right direction, happy to talk 'shop', gave some good advise on a couple places at the new resort I was heading to and their prices were quite good. Overall, I was really happy with the experience and will definitely be going back their for all of my snowboarding needs!

So you need some running shoes First thing to do is find your way into the shop. Which means…read morewalking through the bike shop. Once in, forget browsing the shelves. You need help. No seriously. Fashion is out the window. All that matters here is that you get shoes that fit and suit your gait. The assistant will inspect your current footwear for wear patterns (so it's best if you wear something old). They'll then suggest a shoe. If you are very lucky you might even get a choice. But please don't comment on the colour. Next you get to try them out: maybe on the treadmill, maybe running up and down the pavement outside (yes, in public). If they do the job, you are going home with them. If they're ugly you'll just have to get them covered in mud quickly. Clean shoes are not cool in running circles anyway Seriously though, the point of coming to a place like this is to get properly fitted. Assistants in many of the chain 'sports' stores actually have no idea about the mysteries of gaits and arches, and could well sell you a shoe that can lead to injury. I have especially hard to fit feet (unusually small and broad) and they struggled to find me a shoe first visit. I ended up getting a discontinued shoe from another shop, but what I'd found out at Runners Need helped. Since, with my gait having changed somewhat as I've got fitter, they've been able to sort me out no trouble. Though it's strange coming to a shoe shop and being told only one shoe suits your foot! Certainly speeds things up for a terminal ditherer like me. Of course, you can also get other stuff here, like socks, bum bags, water bottles and sports bars. But it's the shoes that are the main thing

The staff are friendly and knowledgeable - they are all runners themselves and know their stuff! I came here to get my first pair of running shoes and was fitted for them very professionally. My gait was analysed on a special running machine so that they could recommend the correct pair of shoes for me. The products are expensive, but they are top quality and worth the money. Definitely recommend!

Avoid ordering online I would advise against ordering from…read moreBlacks website unless you are prepared to be out of pocket when trying to return items. Blacks take no responsibility for returns and despite the fact that I have received email confirmation from Blacks that my return was received by the company and after waiting for my money for over 14 working days, they are now asking me to deal with the company handling returns. I believe that once I have received a confirmation of my returns, it should not be on customers to handle Blacks' internal issues with the third party handling returns. It's a very frustrating experience, so unless you know the size and are sure of the quality of the product, do not buy from their site.
