Sports Direct

Good selection of well known sports wear and competively priced

Cold and lonely, I strolled into sports direct. In from the heavy rain outside. I had a paper primark bag that had crumbled in my hands. Just like my life. However the kind staff at sports direct gave me a nice top of the range modern plastic bag and this filled my heart with glee and I was ready to take on whatever life was about to throw at me. I purchased a huge mug as a thank you Long live sports direct

Picked up a pair of running trainers. Happy with the price and the staff were helpful and polite. There is a small game store at the top as well.

The shop and staff are good, but stay away from Karrimor as a shoe brand! Bought a pair of trainers (had them 6 months) a pair of brown walking boots ( had them 8 months) and a brand new pair of Ridge 2 WTX hiking boots and they failed putting them on the very first time. Photos enclosed. They just don’t last and are a lot of money for cheap rubbish that seems to be built sub standard. Also I was told by the staff at Canterbury branch that unless I have my receipt or proof of purchase they will NOT refund or exchange, I offered to prove by bank statement but because I had purchased several things together they stated this didn’t prove I had purchased the shoes from them!! Left very angry, disappointed and won’t be using the brand ever again.
