I know nobody wants to read these threads but here we go again..... :)

A friend from work (Geelong) is looking to get some Brooks Adrenaline and is making her way up the freeway to Melbourne on the weekend.

She asked me where to go and these are the places I could think of:

1) Leo Russel Sports store in Preston but I don’t know if they sell Brooks.

2) The VIC market but again I don’t know if they sell Brooks.

3) I know Brooks have a factory outlet in Matthews Ave Airport West but I’ve never been there.

4) I know you can get them from Paul’s warehouse for $170 + shipping, but I’m sure you must be able to get a better deal than that.

Can any CR’s comment where they buy their Brooks from because she said that she couldn’t find places locally that sell Brooks.

Thanks

$170 sounds like a good deal - I paid about $195 at Athletes foot for mine

Pretty sure that Leo Russell only sells Asics and just be aware that they only take cash!

Generally, I find Sims Sports in Moonee Ponds to be the cheapest source of Brooks.

However Rebel in Bourke Street last week had a good special on Adrenalines ($150).

There is another Brooks factory outlet in Smith St Collingwood. I picked up a pair of Adrenalins for $110 last year.
