Hey,

Anyone that knows of a good online-store for buying shoes, that delivers to Canada? I am interested in NB and Mizuno shoes.

So far I have only found eastbay.com. Has anyone bought anything there? are they good?

They are good, I know Greg B. used them, they've got stuff you never even heard of because they supply a lot of sport teams and have good prices.

you might also shop around at http://www.holabirdsports.com or http://www.roadrunnersports.com . I have used both of them in the past (eastbay too), and it looks like they deliver to canada.

I have used eastbay.com and would use them again. They had the best price I could find on the Brooks shoes I like. I am a fan of RoadRunner Sports as well. I believe I've seen Canadian shipping rates on both sites.

I and a several other canucks/GHO types have used holabird. It was a great deal, better now with the currency, took a couple of weeks to arrive and I had to pay about $20 more at the post office for customs fees. Still a great deal and holabird was really good about responding to emails. Only thing is you have to call them to order - their online ordering doesn't accept canadian addresses (or something like that) but you can browse the website to find what you want. I was just thinking about oredering a cople of new pairs form them today, as a matter of fact.

That covers NB at least. Good deals, good customer service.

Running Free is a Toronto-area store that has been good about supporting adventure racing and orienteering events. They now offer online shopping, and it has always been possible to phone them with special orders that they will ship to you. No customs. Great service.

www.eastbay.com has best, biggest selection from racing to every day running to x-country, often has sales with bottom line prices, a little slow on delivery, may take up to a week after order - ground UPS.
