It's been a long lockdown, but we are happy to announce we have now officially reopened!😁🙌

No appointments for gait analysis necessary, just pop in and we can help you where we can. We are still operating under social distancing guidelines so please be patient with us if our shop is full

We are constantly wiping down surfaces with high grade anti bac wipes and we have hand sanitizer at the front of the store for customers to use as they enter the shop.

If you still feel unsafe about heading to the shop please send us a message and we will be happy to accommodate a quiet time to help you.

It's been a really difficult year for us all, and we will never forget all the help you have given us and continue to give us in the weeks and months to come. We hope you continue to use the shop so we can continue to help you with your running needs.

Please come in and say hi, it will be great to see everyone again!

As per Tier 4 restrictions, today was our last of the year for open walk ins. Thank you for all your custom in this extremely difficult and turbulent year

DO NOT FEAR!

we will still be operating on an "Order & Collect" basis.

Just send us a message via our page or call the store (0191 384 1644) and we can either order it in as a special or get it to you on that day if it's in store.

We are still accepting cash/card at the door so please don't hesitate to get in contact if there's something you need!

With all this year has thrown at us, I only feel it proper to end it with this summary:

The year started with us asking for things we really want, and ended with us appreciating things we already had

Look after yourselves, and have a happy New Year!

‼️WE ARE STILL OPEN FOR BUSINESS‼️

To keep in line with government regulations we will be operating an Order and Collect service (details below)

With lockdowns, it is retail and hospitality that takes the brunt of regulations. As a small business we find it particularly difficult in these times, but we will continue to do what we must to survive.

Thank you to all who have been in the shop and continued to support us this week, it really does mean alot.

A quick reminder, we will be CLOSED Sunday (tomorrow)

I think my dad definitely deserves a day off for fathers day with the amount of work he has put in to get the shop open and ready for you all.

Guess who's back? That's right! After working tirelessly over the past few weeks to make the shop safe for you all, we will be opening our doors again tomorrow, Monday 15th June. 😁😁

We have acted on government guidlines which means we have:

- Introduced a one way system in our store.

- There will be hand sanitiser at the front door

- we have moved the shoes to the back to create extra room for gait analysis checks and any other running advice or queries you may have.

There is brand new clearance items arrived too so it's certainly worth checking out.

We hope we can rely on your valued support so we can continue to trade in this way. Helping the local running community is our passion, and we're just glad we can continue to do that again.

Thank you all for your patience, see you all tomorrow! (not all at once though, with social distancing etc 😉)

Opening hours
Monday - Saturday 9.00am - 5.30pm
