Shop the top picks for your sport

We highlight some of the needs that your go-to sport may need in terms of clothing, equipment and footwear. 

• Running – Running is one of the most popular sports around for womens, mens and kids. The ease with which you can do it makes it accessible to all. To get the most out of your running, ensure you invest in some good running shoes. ASICS, Nike, adidas, New Balance and Brooks are excellent and trusted brands you can find at INTERSPORT sport stores and online.

• Football – Football remains an eternally popular sport that requires specific footwear with studs to ensure traction and maximum performance on firm or turf grounds. Whether it is AFL, Rugby or Soccer, INTERSPORT has all your football needs covered. ASICS, Nike, adidas and PUMA are some trusted football brands you can find at INTERSPORT. We also have a wide range of football accessories, including sports protection equipment, footballs, bags and water bottles so you are always game ready.

• Cricket – is a game that requires its own specific equipment when on the pitch. Whether for Senior cricket or Junior cricket, we have a wide range of cricket bats from trusted brands such as Gray Nicholls, Kookaburra and Gunn & Moore. The right footwear is also important along with protection and equipment to allow you to stand comfortably for hours on the pitch – as well as minimising any slipping when making runs or fielding. Additionally we have a great range of cricket apparel, cricket bags, cricket balls and accessories to maximise your game, whether you take cricket.

• Basketball – is proving to become ever more popular for Australian men, women and kids. If you are one of them, it is important to spend time getting the right basketball equipment and gear and investing in a pair of quality Basketball footwear from Nike, adidas and Jordan that are non slip and non marking to maximise your performance on court. We also have a great range of Basketballs, Basketball systems, and NBA Fangear so you can represent your favourite team!

• Training – In the area of fitness and training equipment,  INTERSPORT have a wide range from the best women’s and men’s training clothing and a full range of boxing and cardio equipment including weight training, treadmills, exercise bikes and resistance bands from a range of trusted brands such as Horizon, York and PTP. Whether for beginners, hobby athletes or professionals, INTERSPORT has a wide range of sports equipment, be it for functional training, training with large equipment or for contemplative yoga.

• Hiking – If you have some great outdoors to explore near you by hiking a trail or two in your spare time, you’re going to need some good hiking or trail boots. Hiking boots need to give you stability and give strength to your ankles. Invest in some good quality socks too to help prevent blisters and rubbing. Clothing should allow freedom of movement when you wear them as well as allow you to remove layers easily.
