    Came across the site lillywhites.com, which is owned by same company and looks like a clone of sportsdirect's site. Is there a difference, apart from the name, does anyone know?

    Has anyone bought any Lee Cooper, Tapout or Hardcore hoodies? I'm interested to know if the sizing is accurate.
    I put in my first order last week for 12 tshirts, which should be arriving on tuesday and I thought before I place another order for hoodies I'd check with you all on here.
    There doesn't seem to be too many reviews on the site.

    This offer is just there to be abused. Granted most of the own brand is not great stuff but the reliable branded gear is at great prices £ for € parity and only €1 delivery.

    We bought two Lee Cooper shirts, a mans and a woman's. Both were on the small side for their size, so their hoodies might be the same.
    The Tapout hoodies seem to be OK for their sizes.

    Just a word of caution on sizes. I bought a couple of Medium tee shirts (slazenger and donnay) and they might as well have said XL on them they were so big! :(

    Isn't a lot of this stock the same as Sportsworld in Heatons?
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heatons
    More recently, new Heatons stores are being built with an attached "Sportsworld" store and existing Heatons stores are being upgraded to accommodate a Sportsworld.
    A 50% stake in Heatons is owned by Mike Ashley, the owner of the Sportsworld brand which is frequently co-located with Heatons.
    (Mike Ashley owner of sportsdirect)

    You could try on some things there to see what the sizes are like.

    Tapout's on the big-ish side. I wear the Slazenger hoodies @ 4XL and can squeeze into large Tapout T's and almost into the XL hoodies. I look ridiculous in them, granted :pac: They're big enough is what I'm trying to say. :pac:

    £ for € parity,:( bloody hell.
    I ordered some stuff last night and paid in £ thinking I was getting a good deal but I slipped up.
    Usually these sites uses a poor exchange rate but parity is bonkers.

    Im from england originally and they have lillywhites and sportsdirect. As far as I know they are the same company.
    Yes sportsdirect is attached to heatons here, but this sale is way cheaper than whats in the stores.
    Also sportsdirect bought out jjb, so will see what they do with all the stores.
    Im looking forward to my delivery, id better get my mug. Might have to put second order in :)

    Got some great deals on Tshirts etc. The pound for euro along with 1eur delivery is hard to beat! :)

    Treat myself since I didn't go on the beer today! Hopefully I'll get a mug this time around, so I can do the same as acalmenvoy above


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,867 ✭✭✭kn


    What the feck is the criteria with getting a mug? Is the size of the order, or maybe the size of the box it comes in. I've gotten maybe 3 or 4 orders off them in the last year or so and no mug. I only made a small order this time - any hope?

    I got mug first order for one item and no mug second time for 4. Handle was broken on the one I got though, I would have thrown it away anyway. If I get one and anyone in cork really wants it they can have the feckin thing!
