This medium sized independent sports store is good for sporting apparel, both men and women, but…read morenot so great for shoes. Their range of joggers and sporting footwear is average, much better for men and kids than for women. They have a good range of running and sporting clothing, specific to different sports. Good running shorts, longer basketball shorts, lots of Running Bare and Adidas, all at standard prices. The shop assistants are very helpful here, which is a definitely plus in a sports store. Their swimming range is quite limited, as they don't sell any swimmers, just a few pairs of goggles. They have a large range of backpacks, and a few odds and ends of sporting equipment and weights.

Good level of service and nice range of a variety of bikes. It's the sort of place you would call…read morean all rounder and the Avanti range are great bikes that all service they're owners well. I road one for a few years and it's good to by local (New Zealand) when one can. Though I normally shop elsewhere I have recently worked out that this is my closest shop and one that I should become closer to. Stores are always happy to look after they're regulars I have found in the past.

I've been driving past this store for years and finally stopped in late yesterday on my way home…read morefrom work for running shoes for me and school sports shoes for my son. I had wrongly assumed it was a speciality (read: expensive) shoe store with a limited range. Boy, was I wrong. It was stocked to the ceiling with many shoes on sale, but what I really appreciated was the service from the husband and wife team. I walked on a treadmill while my feet were video'd on an ipad and then we watched how my foot rolled/moved in slow motion and what options that meant for my feet. Over the years I've bought shoes online (guessing a suitable model) and also shopped at the warehouse style shops in the city where the poor staff are trying to serve five people at once. Having just spent a few hundred dollars at the physio with an injury she believes might have been caused by the wrong running shoes, I am glad I went to this place. I'm happy to report I've discovered I don't have to pay any more for great service and range and having been signed up as VIPS (a free membership) for an extra 10% discount, we'll definitely be back.

I was so damn disappointed when I checked this store out…read more Three storeys of Nike shoes! THREE STOREYS!!! And there were no AF1s or similar shoes. It's a very sports based store. If you're in to sports and need some shoes, this store will definitely be able to help you out. But if you're after the more fashion based shoes Nike has to offer, disregard this store and head to Hype or Footlocker.

20/12/2011 Photos Nike - Just Do It…read more Or when I saw the Swoosh sign from afar, "Must Go In!" With the help of the friendly shop assistant, she took me up to the highest 2nd level and pointed me in the right direction, and we found the perfect casual pair of going out shoes (complete with the swoosh) at Nike. She was so knowledgeable and informative about every Nike product she showed up, even I was fascinated but how much could be said about each shoe, singlet, and shorts! The swoosh sign for me will always remain retro, yet modern at the same time. Athletes and runners have been picking these shoes for so many years, for one big reason: Nike are hands down the most coolest brand of footwear out there, and it has been for a long time. If it's too expensive for you, their clothing prices are not too high! During most visits I just stare adoringly at those shoes with the Swoosh, but it isn't complete unless you go hunting for that matching singlet and shorts with your shoes...and when you do find them, it's doing time for me and Nike. Just Do It. Go on....I know you want to.

So as the name suggests they sell all boating, camping and fishing related items and equipment. And…read moreI mean ALL - their stores are huge and this one even has two levels of stuff. When i went in the first time there was a canoe hanging from the ceiling and a sale display set up inside a tent. It's easy to get around the store and the staff at this branch have always been really helpful. They even have a gas refill area just outside the front of the store. They have a fantastic online shop and I prefer to find what I need, the store it is available at, or in stock at, and the price before I leave home. If I don't have a list when I go here I tend to get carried away so best to get in, grab what I came for and leave before I find a few extra bags in the car and $100 less in the bank account!

Went to the Gepps Cross store today. Will not return. Looking to bug 3 Sups. Young man at counter…read moreasked if he could help. I said was looking for assistance with Sups. He would call someone to assist. I headed to Sup display area and waited, and waited and waited! No one turned up. Two assistants standing at counter when I walked out door. Will not be back.

For a sporting outlet store, this one is a bit of a disappointment in terms of clothing and…read moresporting equipment. It's not a very big store, and it has a limited clothing range which is not very well discounted, and the same goes for its sports gear. There is some gym equipment, but I'd go to a serious gym outlet store if I was getting anything beyond sporting apparel. However, its shoe range is enormous. There are heaps of styles, built for different purposes, on good specials. I was impressed by the specials bin for footy and soccer boots. Around Harbour Town, this is one of the best places for sports shoes.

Lesley and Michael Visintin run The Stage Shop in Leigh Street. Although it's called The Stage Shop…read moreit really caters mostly for dancers; and young dancers doing jazz or ballet class, so even though they do have a great range of things, they are not so much about acting as they are about dancing. This is important because there are other places in town actors should go if they are looking for materials such as makeup, fake blood etc. Not having said tat, I do not mean to undermine the value of The Stage Shop because they have all the ballet shoes, jazz shoes, unitard, headbands, dare I say legwarmers and other things like hair nest, the substance of a hair bun... I'm not sure what you call those things that help make a perfect hair bun but it's like a donut made of a spongy type of material and it works every time. They certainly are helpful, and they can tell you some great stories and name just about every great ballet class or school around the city and metropolitan region, so if you have a youngster looking to extend their strength and abilities by taking a dance class, or indeed if you have a dancer in the family, this is a shop where you will find pretty much everything they would want or need when it comes to dance.

Definitely stop off here for winter supplies! So many fluffy socks and dressing gowns and hoodies…read moreand fluffy PJ pants - this really is the perfect place to come and prepare for hibernation. (Plus it's right next to Cheap as Chips so you can stock up on junk food and tinned soup too) You will also find some regular "going out in public" kinds of clothes here too. All of it tends to be on the cheaper end of the scale and there are plenty of wardrobe basics such as leggings, track pants, plain socks and T-shirts. But you can also find some really cool stuff that you just wouldn't see anywhere else. As the name suggests, this is not high fashion, and the store reflects that. The venue is underground and very little has been done in the way of decorating. It is not a place for the claustrophobic shopper. However, prices are cheap, there is a lot to choose from and the owners have never judged me for buying 16 pairs of bed socks at once.
