  Eastbay are pretty decent & shoes are genuine. They usually have a 20% off code running:

  If you order around $150+ the 20% off covers the shipping cost. Some of their sale items are priced very well.

  Last time I ordered, by sticking to sale items, I got 3 pairs of running shoes for $160 delivered. They would have easily cost $150 each in Aus.

    Thanks snowblindnz for your reply. So are you saying AUS stores are really hopeless for bargains with regards to this type of shoes?

      Hi, not sure for basket ball shoes in particular. I know for running shoes they are not that great in Aus. A bargin in an Australian store might be $70-80 for something which is end of line, where as from Eastbay you are looking at around $50 delivered for a bargin.

      I am quite biased though, as I have a size 14US foot, which means most sale items don't come in my size, and what does come in size 14 is usually $150-$250/pair (RRP, in stock at the store).

  I saw some Jordans in the Nike Outlet shop in Melbourne (Sth Wharf) a week ago on 40% off but they are probably last year's model if that's important.

  In general with athletic footwear of any description…yes AUS shops are normally hopeless for this kind of thing.

  Frankston-Dandenong Road, Dandenong South (north-west side of highway) one intersection from the railway bridge overpass has a large warehouse type shop that sells sports shoes at good prices. (Some others of course … we went there especially to buy Vans which were half price at sale). Sorry I cannot recall the shop name but you cannot miss the shop if you are in that vicinity … south of the bridge overpass. Perhaps check Google Earth. It wouldn't hurt checking the prices there first.

    Thanks JediJan but can you confirm if that shop sells authentic basketball shoes? Sorry to be a bit skeptical but a lot of good quality copycat are going on circulation these days.

      Unfortunately cannot confirm but from my recollection they had a lot of well known sports brands there. Wouldn't surprise me if they were the good quality copycat though; I just cannot say. Worthwhile having a look if you are near there; we went on a Friday evening. They were very busy and there were a lot of Asian shoppers there at the time; good indication I believe that they were offering very good prices. Ps. We bought the Vans half price ($100 not $200 but they could have been the older stock .. how does one tell I just don't know) - looked original to me, and I really wouldn't like to pay $200 for Vans which are just a fashion trend really. Son was happy with them and they seem to be good quality; getting a lot of wear and not falling apart.
