The number of Size? stores in the UK has continued to grow over the last half-decade in accordance with the progression of sneaker culture and its acceptance into mass popularity. An offshoot of the JD Sports group, Size? was created to bridge the gap between commercial sportswear retailers and independent sneaker boutiques, as changing youth trends demanded Retro’d Jordans and vintage Nike and not the Forest Hills and McKenzie tracksuits of the early 2000s.

There are now twenty-three Size? stores covering most major cities in the UK as well as a newly opened Paris location. Central London has two stores located on Carnaby Street and in Covent Garden and a third on Portobello Road in the West of the city.

Expect to find a host of footwear choices from Nike, Converse, Puma and Adidas to name a few, as well as a select mix of men’s apparel and the occasional line from the official Size? range. Their growth and popularity has also allowed them exclusive, Size?-only releases, most commonly renditions of classic Nike Air Max models or via joint collaborations as seen recently with the Staple x New Balance 577.

Although Size? is not necessarily the first choice for the die-hard sneaker connoisseur who may find Foot Patrol> or Dover Street Market> more to their liking, it is a must-visit for any foreign tourists looking to get their hands on European or London-exclusive colourways from any of the major labels.

The Neal Street branch of Size? may seem small from the outside but like a actual Aladdin's cave of sneakers the store really opens out downstairs and takes over a much larger floor space down there. The brands flagship store is located across the way on Carnaby Street and is also well worth a look.
