Excellent service and great products at good discounts. Very please and highly recommended!!!

Happy customer fast delivery

First of all I was hesitant because I've read some reviews that indicated poor service and that if a bad review was left it was posted on a different site etc etc. But I checked it was a valid shop on google maps and cracked on. Ordered first thing Friday morning and received goods on Monday afternoon, was very happy with that

Puma nitro deviate 2

Fantastic speedy delivery and good price!

Dryrobe

Got this as an early birthday present from my son & daughter. Came at the right time. Way this cold weather 🥶,it’s kept me warm & snug

Gore-Tex Mens Running Shoes

Great fit and grip in the snow for running and walking. Can't go wrong with Mizuno runners

Comfy

Lovely comfy socks at reasonable price.

Happy

Great Price, fast delivery.

7 days to deliver.

I don’t mind paying £4.95 for a £180 pair of trainers but 7 days to get them seems a bit excessive.

On my 3rd pair of Adidas Prime X Strung 2’s amazing trainers.

Merrell trainers

Very good shoes ,fits perfectly and very comfortable

My new favourite running shorts

Lovely lightweight shorts. I'm tall and these are perfect, some shorts end up sitting on my hips but these are great without being high-waisted or too high. They have attached inner knickers which you don't even feel, they don't wedgie either!! I run A LOT and have tonnes of shorts but love, love these. True to size, I'm a tall size 10-12 and wear Medium in these.

Super smooth bike - really pleased!

I am really a fairly average cyclist and this bike is probably much higher up the range but a combination of a great sale price and C2W brought it down to a very affordable level. I am loving the bike, instantly at home with a comfortable riding position - medium bike for my 5' 10" frame. Di2 gear changes take just a little getting used to the lever switches but already feel the benefits. Will be doing a Chester to Cardiff soon which will be first proper ride out - really looking to how it performs on a longer ride. Really pleased with my buy and the quality and performance of the bike. PS - The colour combo is great too!

Sturdy and comfortable

Smart light weight trainer, particularly like the firm sole, because I can not only cycle comfortably but the turquoise sole hides the dirt! True to size.

Excelentes producto, tela segun es lo especificado, muy comoda! Muy recomendable 👏

Reebok Nano X4 – The Gym’s New Heartthrob

Oh. My. Quads. These Reebok Nano X4 trainers aren’t just shoes—they’re confidence on a sole. They’ve turned me into a walking (well, sprinting, squatting, and box-jumping) thirst trap at the gym.

The moment I laced them up, I swear I heard a choir of angels singing, "Is it hot in here, or is it just you?" My fellow gym-goers definitely noticed. The Nano X4’s sleek design and bold colorways say, “I’m here to lift heavy and steal hearts.”

And let’s talk about performance. Whether I’m crushing burpees or pretending to know what I’m doing on the rowing machine, these shoes deliver. The grip? Firm like a first-date handshake. The cushioning? Perfectly supportive, like that one friend who always tells you your deadlift form is fire.

But let’s not kid ourselves—the real magic is how these trainers make me look. My calves? Michelangelo couldn’t sculpt them better. My posture? Majestic, like I just finished benching my own bodyweight (even though I didn't). One guy literally dropped his dumbbells mid-curl just to ask, “Are those the Nano X4s?” I said yes, but my smirk said, And you’ll never pull them off like I do.

If you want to feel faster, lift harder, and strut like you own the gym (spoiler: you do now), grab these trainers. But beware: your gym crush may start asking for “spotting” help way more often.

The Nano X4s are so **** they should come with a gym membership and a warning label. Wear responsibly.

Love them

These are so good for my CrossFit training. I find the toe box very comfortable. The colours are cute and a great price!

Size way too small

Bought these in a Uk 6.5 for my son.
He usually takes a 6 but wanted to give him a bit of wriggle room so got him half a size larger.
When the spikes arrived they looked small and
narrow.
He couldn’t even get his foot into them!
Sent them back for a refund.
Sizes seem to be way off.

Fantastic Shoes

These are the best Ealing show I have had. The waterproof GoreTex works well and they are Romy in the toe box. Loved them so much I bought a second pair!

Great purchase & so happy my exchange (due to me ordering wrong size) was dealt with quickly & in time for Christmas.

Adizero Pro 4

A fantastic upgrade to the Pro 3. Incredibly light and comfortable with great stability. Just oozes speed. The best I’ve ever run in and I’ve been running for 32 years! I saw another review recommending to go up 1/2 a size and I did that.

Very happy

Fast service. Great product. Great price. What more can I say???

Great fit and feel when doing trail run through park but need to clear excess mud from tread before uphill sections to maintain good traction. Hopefully the soles don't wear as quickly as Park-claw these are replacing.
