Size? is one of the most popular destinations in the UK for exclusive sneaker launches. Operating as a chain with various locations, this cool sneaker store carries all the major brands, with a wide assortment to choose from. Similar to a sneaker emporium, Size? never ceases to impress. If it’s a new release, you can count on finding it at Size?. The stores also feature all the latest sneaker-related merchandise including books, magazines, clothing, and collectibles. One of the best places in London to find unique and exclusive sneakers. They have an amazing variety of trainers, Nikes in particular, and the prices are quite reasonable. If you are looking for a cool pair of sneakers, come here. I guarantee you will find something you like... and something nobody else will have!

Slam City Skates is a great place to find some Nike SB's since they do have a SB account, yet they're known to be a little bit overpriced. On the flipside, as far as service goes, these guys deserve a 4 star! If you have a question at either WESC or here, they will be able to answer any or most questions you throw at them. For SB's ask for Jordan at WESC. I've never had a problem having to reserve a pair of kicks for pickup.

The hub of Nike activities for the UK, Niketown is four floors of Nike training equipment, sports kits and Nike branded merchandise. The store is hugely impressive and the branded trainer glass box right in the middle is quite stunning. In particular running shoes should always be the best you can find as you run the risk of shin splits and ankle and knee injuries otherwise. Nike is also now responsible for a number of the Premier League football kits and you will be guaranteed to find them here. On a slightly sour note, this store has been known to attract a number of fights and, very unfortunately, stabbings due to the value of quite a bit of the stuff inside. It's very unlikely, however, that you will ever see an incident at the store and if you need Nike gear this is the place to go.
