Women: sportswear in women's fits
A women's model is not a smaller men's model. This department holds sportswear cut for the female fit, in sizes and shapes made for it. From the gym to the training pitch, and from a single pair of tights to the full club kit a few metres away.
What you will find here
Sportswear, tights and shoes in women's fits. The Puma corner with its lit logo is the most visible spot on this department; the tights and training tops hang together there.
Athlecia is also among the brands we carry, alongside the sports brands that come back on the other departments.
From the gym to the pitch
What hangs here goes to the gym, out on a run and onto the training pitch. If you play for a club, the team kit is a few metres away — and we order those kits in the same size ranges.
Trying on saves trouble
Tights and tops sit differently from brand to brand. Trying them on here takes a few minutes and spares you a parcel to pack up again. There are fitting rooms, and you get a straight answer when you are torn between two sizes.
Who this department is for
For women and girls who play sport, and for anyone who wears sportswear without playing any. Women who play for a club come here for their own gear and go a few metres on for the club kit.
What a women's fit actually means
A women's fit is more than a smaller size. Shoulders, hips and leg length sit in a different proportion, and you notice that most in tights and tops. The same model in the same size therefore sits differently from one brand to the next.
That is why they hang together here instead of scattered brand by brand across the store. You take two, you try them on one after the other, and within a minute you know which one works for you.
That is precisely what a parcel on the doormat cannot tell you — and it saves you the bother of sending anything back.
