A few years back now 'Braintree shopping village' opened but I only visited the place for the first time last year and since then I have been going back on frequent visits. The place is called 'The Braintree Freeport Designer Village' and has many decent designer stores including 'The Reebok Shop'.
I know for a fact that they're aren't many 'Reebok' shops around in this country, I think there's one in Somerset which I've never visited but living relatively near to Braintree, this NEW 'Reebok Shop' was going to get visited!
The store was pretty big and looked very impressive, everything was set out out nicely with lots of space which was great because I'm not very keen on shops which are all cramped up. The store was set out in the relative sections, there was the clothing section split into further catergories of womens, males and childrens clothing, there was also a footwear section, again stocked for everyone and there is also a surprisingly large section for accessories such as hats and bags etc.
The clothing section took up the most room in the store, with the childrens and womens items nearest the entrance to the store and the male items further away, nearer the back of the store. There was a huge variety of 'Reebok' named clothes which came in nearly every size possible. The best thing was though that all the prices were less than what you'd expect to pay normally. You could buy childrens and teenagers plain T shirts with 'Reebok' printed on the front for around a fiver and then jumpers and jackets that you would usually expect to be around a ridiculous price of £50-£60 that were less than £20!!! These items were for people of all generations and stocked in all sizes.
The footwear section took up quite a lot of room in the store too but was mainly stocked up in the right hand cornor of the store, most of the items of footwear were on display in order of sizes which I liked. You just had to visit the section of your shoe size and choose a pair of shoes. Again the prices were lower which was fab and half sizes were available. You could buy trainers which could either be running trainers or casual trainers, football boots, astro turfs, studded boots or Moulded boots and then 'Reebok' sandals and footwear for the summer. I picked up a pair of Gold and White Reebok classics in size 5 and a half for only £20!!! These trainers are very popular and are usually sold at prices of around £35-£60 in this specific size.~I was very impressed and the trainers have lasted as well, (Check out opinion coming in a few minutes or later on tonight about these specific trainers!!!)
Lastly there was the sports accessories all 'Reebok' named of course, section. This was displayed all around the walls and around the tills and paying area. It stocked bags, hats, wallets, socks and sporting underwear as well as certain sports accessories such as real leather footballs, goalie gloves and shin pads for football, golf equitment for golf and so forth. Again all these items were reasonably priced and looked great quality.
This store was brilliant and definitely worth the visit, although I only got a jumper, a few T-Shirts and a pair of trainers I'll definitely be going back for more! (And I am next weekend infact!) Thanks~M~
