    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Dont know a shop you can get them in ireland. i order all mine from eastbay.com..

    Yeh, I normally stick to Nike Jordans, purely because I know my size exactly in them (other makes can vary slightly in size) and buy online from ebay or eastbay like nialo.

    UPDATE: Footlocker normally has an ok selection, but it's still pretty shocking even compared to the likes of London, Spain and especially the US. My advice, go in try on something you like in there and then go buy online.

    Champion sports occasionally get some nice boots in! In you keep an eye out there! They had hyperdunks during the summer for €150. Thats excellent like! Stil prefer online myself do! Nike id, eastbay, addidas, reebok, starbury if ur looking for a bargain!

    theres a place on the quays called heathers that has some. nto a huge range, i think theres some And1s. I bought a pair of oakley bball shoes and they were crap. its primarily a large shoe size store tho but ring ahead.

    oh and buying frm eastbay is retarded imo. shippings the price of a shoe, if you can handle not having the very latest then u can eaisly pick up a nice pair on ebay for cheap. i got a pair of nike shoxs for like 40e and they are perfect, best fit ive ever had.

    If you're up North any time try SportsDirect, they've a half decent selection in most of the bigger stores. Or www.sportsdirect.com

    get them online......footlockers in dublin are garbage....they never stock none of the retro jordans that drop, they never have any of the nikes from the 90s in there....but it depends on how much youre willing to spend, if over 150 euro then:

    I have a mate with them. He went from Kobe 5s to them and does not like them too much. Less ankle support as the foot seems alot higher in the shoe.

    With regards where to buy shoes I was in Dublin last Monday and in Footlocker on O' Connell Street they had Lebrons shoes, KDs and Kobe 8 which are just out. Same prices as the Nike website.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,690 ✭✭✭Whyner


    I'm heading in tomorrow so fingers crossed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,902 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    I bought Melo M9s in there, one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn EVER.

    The girl in there helped me pick out a good shoe alright.

    This shop was the only place that had anywhere near a decent selection. Not great sizes though, they had none of the 89 Flight in my size. Ended up going with the Spizike

    I don't really want to spend over 80 euro, so it seems I had to order on-line (sizing could be hard). Shoes does not has to be flashy, I want some generic solid ones.

    You can always google it....you will find some im sure.
