Good shops in Ireland for runners

glanman

Hi I am looking for the names of shops that have good selections of runners such as pumas(not the white ones that you get in champion sports etc) and onitsuka tiger. One shop I know know of and love is Size on wicklow st in Dublin.

Examples:

Any other reccomendations?

Size? is really the best in Dublin that I know of.

Schuh have a OKish range sometimes.

Personally I don't like most of what Office or Foot Locker carry, with the occasional exception.

Bureau in Belfast occasionally have nice stuff but it's a very small selection.

Online buying is by far the best bet, I've found.

Ya I have been looking online but was hoping to get a shop. Buying online is a little bit risky as what they look like in photos isn't always what they will look like in real life.

I am regularly in Dublin, Limerick and Cork so was hoping that there might be a hidden gem somewhere!

How do you find the delivery of these? There are two pairs I want on size site at moment, do I get a delivery discount for multiple pairs?

Also, will size get a pair delivered to the store for collection at no extra cost? I have to say that the prices seem to be coming down, UK parity perhaps? I got a pair of new pumas for €61 the other day, bargain!

Size is your only bet here mate.

TkMaxx can surprise, at the minute the Stephens Green one has a good few styles of Adidas Gazelles in, pure beauts. Mainly size 8 /9 I think?

I'm pretty sure that you are talking about size but I'll keep an eye open the next time I'm there!

Size don't do womens size 4 (except for Converse) so I can't shop there and I'm an absolute sneaker freak.

I get a lot of my from eBay - if I know the brand, I'm happy to buy the size.

Office, Schuh and FootLocker occasionally have runners worth buying, but you have to sort the wheat out from the chaff.

As mentioned there is a Size? on Wicklow St just off Grafton St. BTW the Size? website won't deliver to Ireland iirc.

Seems to be correct alright. They did tell me in the shop the other day though that they can get ones delivered to the Dublin store if you want to order something not in stock
