Advantages: None

Disadvantages: Can't find basketball shoes!

The main sport in UK is football. Then there's rugby and the third main sport in UK would be snooker (if it's a sport!).

So where is basketball in all this? Well apparently basketball is the fastest growing sport in the UK. That's probably cause everyone is starting to like it and it's finally starting to become popular.

But until now, it's really a pain in the ar*e to find basketball shoes in sports shops. You'll have NO problem whatsoever to buy football shoes or tennis shoes, but to find a shop that has a good variety of basketball shoes is difficult to find!

There are the big shops like JJB which have some variety, but they tend to sell expensive shoes only. They sell player's shoes like Kobey Bryan's shoes, or Michael Jordan's shoes...which are the most expensive ones in the market! Can't we just have normal basketball shoes at a normal price?

I live in Cardiff (I'm a student here) and not being able to find shoes has made me not want to play basketball anymore. The reason is that I need proper basketball shoes or I'll sprain my ankle. So if I can't find the correct shoes, I can't really play or I'll get injured withing two games.

I think that shops should have all sports shoes and clothes available. They should reconsider their shoes stocks and provide the buyers with the type of shoes they need!
