Skip the sports superstores, Olympus is a jam-packed local sports store that stocks all the…read moreessential paraphernalia from soccer boots to squash eye shields to those funny little ball-holder things that you stick on your skirt to play tennis. You might need to climb over a pile or two of goods in order to find what you're looking for - or possibly over a young footballer and his mother trying on new boots - but sure as eggs, if it's sporting stuff, it'll be there somewhere. In season, Olympus stocks a good range of sports footwear, but the store's not big enough for them the keep it all on hand year-round, so if you need new boots be sure to pick them up towards the start of the season to get the pick of the range. Also an excellent supporter of local sporting clubs, and a handy central resource for picking up team uniforms and gear - though their selection of other sporting clothing is a bit hit and miss.

I wish I could give 1/2 stars but unfortunately not the case only full stars involved here as I…read morethink this branch deserves 3.5 stars not 3 from me. Initially really good customer service I was asked 2 or 3 times by different people if I needed help. To be honest I thought it was a bit much (why couldn't they check if I had been asked for help?!?!?!) Prices are bad overall... Kayano was $249.95 ... when I knew for fact Rebel had for only $179.95 . When I said this they were happy to negotiate to $189 ish and in the end I REALLY WANTED new shoes to train so bought. Summary: friendly local store but no one really knew much about cardio running on road and my natural gait and what I should be wearing for 7.5-10 km a week jog and 2 km sprint training on weekends. I was prepared to purchase multiple pairs of shoes but walked out with only one pair. I thought local smaller stores were meant to be knowledgeable and offer relevant advice, not just say the kayano was the best and try and get $250 out of me! I might be back, I might not. I wont go out of my way to go here..... to paint a wider picture however I know if Rebel don't have my size they will willingly match prices which is a huge comfort as a back up. good store to have in back up as they have been around for atleast 7 years and is in a fairly good location except hard to park. 3.5 stars!

Reebok, Asics, Londsdale etc. The shoes are the main attraction, you can get Mizuno for almost $100 off, ASICS the same and there are many other brands too. They may not be the most stylish or cool of the range but they still do the trick. I had a pair of ASCIS for 3 years. And I work out a lot, so for $200 it is not so bad, if you do get a lot of wear out of them. I bought a pair of Mizuno I really liked the arch support and they have moulded to my feel. A really good pair of shoes and I know they will last me for awhile. I placed them on layby and didn't pick them up till about 2 mths after and they were fine with that. I didn't get any nasty notices or phone calls so that was great.

It's a bit confronting buying Lycra at the best of times - I don't need testing on my knowledge of the stuff too... "Do you know about our polywafflewafflelycratastic pants?" asked the chirpy American. "No" was my startled reply. "I'm just browsing." She gave me wounded look like I'd just sat on her puppy, so I let her tell me about it. I made a selection then shuffled off to the changing rooms "How are you today" said indentikit chirpy American. "What's your name?" "Helen." I responded. She smiled briefly and widely as she wrote my name on a chalkboard outside my booth. I swear I could hear her scratch the phrase "Not a Zero" on the board as I entered. "Helllleeeennnn," came the cry but seconds later. She knew my name, I couldn't pretend I hadn't heard her. My muffled response should have confirmed I was trapped but I checked the door to stop her from coming in cupping my boobs into the top. As I left hot and flustered she asked 'How are they Helen, will you take them Helen?" I had nowhere to run and anyway I wasn't wearing the right outfit. I did actually buy a rather fetching running skirt that makes me appear to have a bottom - so top points for that but the service is way too upbeat and intense - it's verging on cultish! The mantras adorning the windows and the fact that they do free yoga on Sunday (9.30 to 10.30am) and Thursday 7.00am to 8.00am is all well and good but seriously it's trying a bit too hard.
