Transalpino

Oh, yeah. I forgot this one. Another shop in Gostins I don’t like. What the heck is this even doing here? I feel it mars the lovely aspect of this shopping arcade and is so out of place.
This place sells top name sportswear and sneakers, particularly Adidas. As the others have said, if you like that kind of thing, than this is the kind of thing you will like …
I for one wish this shop wasn’t here and something else more interesting and delightful stood in its place.

It’s not just an Addidas shop here, but the range of trabs they have by the German sports giant is pretty impressive. Transalpino sets itself out as a cut above the usual sportsware shop which is why they have such a good selection of Addidas — the preffered trainer of many casual — but they also have tracksuits, t shirts and parkas by Fila and 80s Casuals amongst others.
If you have switched on to the influences and style in the shop, the website pinpoints the store’s ethos with a still from Kevin Sampson’s Awaydays — focusing purely on the footwear only, by the way there was talk of Addidas producing a Birkenhead in honour of the film!
With tongue in cheek there are some good t shirts too like the Panini Casuals print just in time for the world cup.
