Advantages: Thanks for the memory Disadvantages: It's no more!
...My first memories of allsports are as a kid in Blackburn. My bus used to drop me off in town and I had to walk the rest of the way to school.
Every morning I had the same routine....go and stare longingly at the trainers in the window. My Mum and Dad wouldn't buy me branded trainers until I could contribute...it made me rush out for that part-time job I can tell you!
The memory that sticks most in my mind is that of a pair of Hi-tec Silver Shadows ... ...window. Not exactly aspirational now I know, but at the time they were my world (by the time I bought a pair they were a bit crap!)
That was the start of my love affair with all:sports and the world of sports fashion. I wouldn't shop anywhere else. I had my bonus card and it used to fill up all the time and give me a great discount.
OK it wasn't perfect, the staff were a bit pushy (I think they were on commision) but at least they knew their stuff. ...

All:sports is a major player in the sports fashion industry in the United Kingdom. They have nearly 300 stores located up and down the British Isles. They have a store in most large towns and shopping areas, sometimes two in some areas. They were founded 1977 in Manchester, which makes them the oldest existing large chain of sports fashion retailers in the UK. They have a good heritage as a high street retailer and they are a household name. This ... ...somewhat in recent years. I will try and give as much details about the company, their products and the good and bad points about the firm.
In recent years, All:Sports standards and what they stock have gone dramatically down hill. They don't have the large selection of products from the two main sports brands, Adidas and Nike, that they once had. They seem to have branched out and have introduced too many new brands. For example, they had one style ...

I shop at Allsports because I am a very keen runner, and often need clothing and footwear, so I often shop at Allsports, as I believe they have a good range and of course they have a good stock of brand names.
The stores are large so products are not cramped, they have sweatshirts jackets, trainers, and they products are aimed for children, and adults. When you first shop there you sign up for their bonus card and if you continue to shop there you ... ...allot of money on brand names then you receive more bonus points and more savings.
The prices are reasonable, and I always find that the staff are really friendly and really eager to help you if you require some assistance, and if they don’t have a product in stock they will deliver/order it for you specially. All in all a very good sport store. ...

Allsports is a store that is excellent if you want to buy brand names at good prices, if you love football then they have the majority of the strips from the big clubs and those from your own area. They specialise in sport clothing, trainers, and appeal to both men and women. The products are always at good prices, with sales on at most times in the year. They stock the latest trainers, and have helpful staff who are their to give you advice if you ... ...than the norm.
However Allsports is great if you require some sports clothing, they even do sports clothes in toddler size, if you want something but can’t find it ask because they can order it for you. I find them very helpful in that way.
A useful store if you require sports wear which is quality and reasonably priced. ...

Advantages: All sports covered Disadvantages: But that has to allow for a slight less variety on normal sports.
This shop has to be one of the best in the UK for extreme sports, Athletics and trendability. I go in here frequently and can find skateboards, rollerblades, baseball gear, running gear and anything really. I like the shirts and T-shirts especially the No Fear ones. The clothes are of good range and quality and the equipment you just can't get anywhere else. Forget your JD and even Sports Connection because. Its all in the name because it really ...

Advantages: Good range of spoartswear Disadvantages: Very rude staff
...that if they go to Allsports to buy any sort of sportswear, just to be aware of this strange policy that the Southampton Branch have and about the general rudeness of the staff.. You might find it useful to check that everything you have been given is actaully what you asked for, especially with trainers which tend to be put in a box by the assistants without you being able to check them. ...
