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!

Greaves is pretty much THE place to shop for sports equipment of any kind if you don't know where…read moreto go. 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 used to exercise a lot, then I stopped, and now I need some motivation to get back into it. I…read moredon't know about you, but for me I am (solely) motivated by purchasing pretty new exercise clothes, which is how I ended up taking a detour into Sweaty Betty one Friday afternoon. First things first - this shop is baltic hot roasting warm. I guess it's called Sweaty Betty for a reason. I felt like I'd done a class of Bikram Yoga by the time I left, and that was just from having a browse. Now, onto the clothes. These aren't your dull, uninteresting workout clothes. They're bright, colourful, stylish and very drool-worthy. They also sell sneakers, workout accessories like running gloves and yoga mats. The downside is the price - you aren't talking cheap stuff here, as a pair of leggings will set you back around anywhere between £40 - £90. I got chatting to the staff members who are possibly the friendliest people on the planet and they told me about the free fitness classes offered in-store. Free, you say - that sounds like my kind of thing. There's yoga, HIIT and a special class called Fly, Flex, Flow which they are just doing for a few weeks. To get into these classes you need a Sweaty Betty card (free) and you sign up online. I'm definitely going to give one a try and then treat myself to some shiny new leggings as a reward.

Sweaty Betty is a haven for me, so many gorgeous clothes and colours and stuff I would happily wear shopping or to lunch post gym. Confession, I've never bought clothes from here. But knowing friends who have, the stuff is great quality. (I'm just waiting for pay-day, and a sale is currently on, so will make a purchase soon and re-review.) I visited here thanks to Denise telling me about an event to do with nutrition and sport, also sponsored by Juice Warrior and Healthy Nibbles. The staff from all companies were great, but the lady from Sweaty Betty who had a PhD in Nutrition led the talk and was so honest. It's lovely to see a brand have passionate employees who were all forms of gym-goers, from runners, to yogis. They also offer free circuit classes, yoga, and runs. Just check on the blackboard beside the changing room.

Inside is like an Aladdin's cave with most sports wear that you could ever want weather it's for kids, women or men. There are rows and rows of trainers & gym shoes in lots of styles & colours. They stock a wide selection of clothing also with bags, and smaller sporting equipment. Prices Sports direct is possibly one of the cheaper options to buy sporting equipment, clothing or shoes. Outside the door there are lots of brollies for when it's raining. Overall good value for money

The ladies that make up the Lululemon Glasgow showroom team are awesome! They are always welcoming,…read moreeager to assist, and love getting involved in their city. If you've been to a Lululemon in the states or Canada, please note that this is a showroom. It's very small and does not often carry the latest styles or prints. They do carry all the staples and typically have quite a few items marked down (you have to keep an eye out for the purple stickers). The only downside to Lulu in the UK is the pricing. The only difference on the tags is the currency sign in front of the number. If a pair of wunder unders is priced at 98#s that means that it retails for $98 USD. It's definitely a huge jump in price, but if you need the items that bad you'll pay the increase in prices. They offer free community classes on Saturdays and Sundays and frequently feature new recipes and exercies on their Facebook page. If you're new to Glasgow and are eager to join the fitness world stop into the store and check out the variety of information they have about various studios and clubs in the area! One last thing - they do not accept cash under any circumstances. Cards only. Prepare accordingly.

I first came here for one of their Sunday boot camps, a challenging free class that both my boyfriend and myself could take part in. After the class, we had a nice chat with staff members and fellow class participants over some snacks delivered by the Whole Foods Market. Months later, we returned for some wardrobe update (mainly for the boy, but hey, those rose patterned leggings were just meant for me). Not only did we get all the help and advice we needed, but the girls even remembered us and greeted us like friends they just didn't see for a long time. Absolutely amazing!

It's a store full of Celtic merchandise. It's a specific market they're shooting for, and dammit,…read morethey hit it square on. The staff know their stuff, the shop is always spotless, and even the upsell at the till point isn't that bad. I got a shirt printed for my son, and while waiting, browsed my way into buying a reduced shirt for myself. Honestly, if you want something to do with Celtic, there's no better place. If you don't, then you'll never set foot in the place at all. If you're a Celtic fan, you'll be in heaven, and your pennies go directly to the club, so it's a win-win. Can't say anything bad about it, as a man of the green-and-white persuasion ;)

I presume they are all Celtic fans but every simple question I asked such as "what is the latest dvd?" "what is the latest book?" was met with a blank look and a "err, I dunno." I asked every member of staff working at the time these questions and none of them knew! I mean the staff were all friendly enough but I think they could do with brushing up on their knowledge of Celtic merchandise.

Mainly formula one and related car sports - this place does have some quite funny t-shirts. My favourite is the one that says very simply "I am the Stig." My mum keeps threatening to get one and wear it entirely for the purpose of making my brother cross. To be honest, it would probably be worth it. (Even though this shop isn't very cheap...) Great for gift buying - here you'll find a t-shirt suitable for even the most difficult to please man in your life. Also worth a trip just for a bit of entertainment!

All I could see in this store was a shrine to The Stig. You would think he was the 21st century Jesus the way his status is elevated in Wheels of Sport. Stig tees, mugs, life-sized cut outs - can't be avoided. There was probably another limited amount of stock in here not relating to The Stig. I suppose there is, and if you're interested in F1 then you might enjoy it. I for one can't stand it, hence my review. I don't mind a bit of Top Gear every now and then, but I only tune in for the cross country races with planes and suchlike. If you like The Stig, you'll find this place a hoot. Otherwise, you'll pretty soon learn that its specialised formula is somewhat limited, and you'll swerve by it.

Run 4 It is a specialist running shoe shop that serves itself well to the purpose. This was the…read morelast place I bought my road running shoes, and I am happy that they have stopped this shin pain that I was getting from my last pair as they were worn out. If looking for running shoes, don' let the eerily quite shop put you off, the staff are very knowledgeable. They will assess your gait by watching you walk up and down then a little jog, which is all done inside the shop, where they will then bring an assortment of different shoes for you to try, while they assess how you walk again. They will talk of things like pronation of the foot, as it is likely that everyone has a little of it. It is great to hear your condition explained to you. They give recommendations on brand for fit and your foot requirements. It was nice to know that they even recommended the cheapest pair of trainers which I was swithering over, so they are not money hungry corporate monsters that they could be. Specialised running shoes are rather pricey, but they are so beneficial to your joints whether it is walking, road, or cross country running you would like to do. If you do have over pronation like me, there are different sorts of shoes you can buy too which will act as a sort of physiotherapy for your foot and strengthen your muscles. I didn't buy any or my bill would have been huge, but I am not saying I am not still thinking about it. Costs for the sorts of trainers on offer was about £65 - £110, you can't put a price on health.

On this occassion, I was after a backpack to use for cycling long distances but one that may also be used for mountain marathon type antics and the guy who helped me really knew his stuff - not just from a salesman point of view but also which products he had personally tried and tested. Didn't feel at all rushed or pressured into buying anything, despite spending ages deliberating - the bag I subsequently bought was test ridden today and it's brilliant. Best of all, if you are an affiliated running/tri club member, there's a handy 10% discount!

Situated in the Trongate, its windows are adorned with hippity hop goodies that would entice the most bling kids in Glasgow (am i showing my age here? how uncool!) It seems to specialise in hats because there are loads of them, all emblazoned with American sports team logos and initials. The slogan of the shop is 'headgear fit for a King' so that solidified that idea for me. They were around 25.00, and i have no idea if that's cheap or expensive for that kind of thing. Horrible anyway. They also sell the biggest range of fake and tacky watches i have ever seen. They are hideous and very clearly plastic. I suppose it depends what you are into, but i won't be rushing back here in a hurry. Unless i have some sort of fancy dress affair to go to and want to try a Run DMC impression.
