They have opened a shop in York....

Oh dear, oh dear.......

[Hidden]

Ha! I have managed to avoid the Oxford shop. However, I caved and bought leggings and vest from Tikiboo today. Oh, dear, Im an addict. I have five pairs of running leggings and another on the way.x

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Haha

Mr W nearly had a heart attack when he saw the prices.....I had to take him to a pub to recover🏃🏾‍♀️🍺👍

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I lookd at the prices online and nearly fainted. Oh, but they look so lovely. Anyway, you deserve them! Btw a friend’s daughter, Erica Pattison, was the model for them.

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Thank you kindly. They are really good quality and I feel like I am in this for the long haul......that’s what I told the old man anyway 😊

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Exactly 😉

I shop in Lidl 🏅 I managed to avert my eyes when I stumbled upon a Sweaty Betty in Oxford 😎 🙈🙈🙈🙈 You tell your husband - if he asks - they were £3.99 😇. In my case it’s true 😁

So, what’s in the bag then?

[Hidden in reply to misswobble]

I’ll have to post again 😊

[Hidden in reply to misswobble]

The Oxford shop is the one I scurry past! I dare NOT go,inside.

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

I love Tikiboo x

[Hidden in reply to Mummycav]

I just bought nebula leggings and running/racing back vest - did i already say that? i lose track!

[EB43 Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

I have the blue sugar skull leggings and I just love them, they make me smile every time I pop them on.😁

[Hidden in reply to EB43]

The nebula ones were the only ones I could match up in my size - and they had a leggings and top for £50 deal going on.I fancied the butterflies, but out of stock.

[misswobble Graduate10]

As Basil Brush would say, “c’mon, c’mon” 😁🦊

[Hidden in reply to misswobble]

I’ve put a picture on a new thread

Want to go running NOW

[misswobble Graduate10]

Well, why not. New duds impel us to get out there 💪😃👍🏃‍♀️

[EB43 Graduate10]

They look great and perfect for when we get some more summer.......might need to think red for my own running clothes obsession.

[Anthie Graduate10]

ah, now, I think I've got the answer to my question to your latest post! I could've bet on it though!!! No Sweaty Betty in France yet... I'll have to go to London or York if I go there in the summer. Lucky you! (I know, I can buy on the Internet but I like to see and feel and try on...)

[Hidden in reply to Anthie]

Ah yes. I looked on line and thought ‘I can’t justify spending that’ but then I went in and tried them on...my downfall! Really nice quality though and v stylish

[Anthie Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Exactly

[mfamilias Graduate10 in reply to Anthie]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is on the other side of the Channel feeling frustrated... The Sweaty Betty gear looks so much more exciting than Décathlon and Intersport's offerings. I have to wait until I go back to the UK in September - don't dare to order online incase the sizes are wrong...

[Hidden in reply to mfamilias]

Well you know there has to be SOME downside to living in France

The sizing seems quite accurate, but once you have been and tried stuff on you will be able to order with abandon in the future

[Anthie Graduate10 in reply to mfamilias]

The same for me considering their prices!! I need to try them on first. Apparently Intersports is not so bad... A lady in my stretching class today had tights with a quite original pattern. Worth having a look at the shop again perhaps? And I've also been told by my coach that H&M has a running collection that is quite good quality and fun (if not very ethical but which brand is...). She also advised Undiz, underwear shop... I haven't checked yet as I'm really not a shopping girl (I just hate trying on clothes that mostly don't fit me)! If you don't want to wait till September...

[mfamilias Graduate10 in reply to Anthie]

OOOh, Undiz do running gear? Must get on to that Gémo do gear, but it's a bit too flimsy for me. I find Intersport extortionately expensive. TBH, I do most of my clothes shopping in Emmaüs and other charity shops, and hate high-street shopping unless I can't do otherwise.

[SusieHicks]

I assure sceptical husband and daughter that my (utterly comfortable, flattering) leggings inspire me to get out there, but really it’s guilt if I don’t

[Hidden in reply to SusieHicks]

I just realised my trainers don’t go with my new gear...sigh

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

You know what to do. You can never have too many pairs of running shoes. Besides, it’s beneficial for your legs to rotate them 😊😊

[SusieHicks]

Matching essential, obvs

[Hidden]

Where in York ? I was there last Saturday and never saw it ?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Stonegate, near Whitestuff and Cath Kidston

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Thank you , will definitely be having a look next time I go into town 👍🏻

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

It will be your downfall.....

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I will take a chance 😉

HOW MUCH ! Yorkshire war cry
