    Adidas specifically.

    Every time I've popped into Footlocker or JD Sports all the pairs are about €70 which is mental considering I have, in the past, bought pairs online and had them shipped for much less.

    Always been wary of them. I ordered a pair of Adidas sandals/flipflops and they were obvious fakes ( I had a genuine pair to compare them to). They were badly made too. I understand why they can afford to have such low prices. Some of their stuff look pretty convincing though. I googled reviews for Sports Direct and whenever someone posted a negative review suspecting the item they purchased was a fake. Some person replied (prob affiliated with SD) defending them. They're customer service is awful too. I would avoid them.

    I've order a few times. I've had issues with sizes and some boxes are marked so as to suggest they are overstock/sale items. Otherwise no problems.

    sportsdirect don't sell fakes. sportsshoes.com are better though for running gear.
    For adidas you should register on adidas.ie
    When you register and login you can get "backstage" access where you sometimes get really good deals on running shoes.
