Sports Footwear on Moorhouse Ave

Smiths Sports Shoes Christchurch offers technical footwear advice, great customer service and a wide range of sports shoes for our local community. Our technically trained sales team can help assist and direct you into the best possible footwear for your sporting needs.

The Christchurch store carries an extensive footwear range, including the latest models from ASICS, Adidas, Mizuno, Nike, New Balance, Under Armour, Brooks and Skechers. We cater for most sports and carry good selections across most price points, with footwear for running, walking, cross training, gym, netball, indoor sport, tennis, football, sandals and slides, lifestyle casuals and a large kids’ selection.

For locals, the right shoe can make a real difference across the city’s varied terrain. Hagley Park is one of the city’s most popular running spots, with flat paths and multiple loop options close to the central city. For those wanting hill training, the Rāpaki Track is one of the most popular Port Hills routes for walkers, runners and mountain bikers, with a steady climb and views over Lyttelton Harbour. The wider Port Hills network also offers a mix of bush-clad gullies, rocky outcrops and scenic tracks, while Bottle Lake Forest and coastal routes add more off-road and mixed-surface options for walkers and runners.

Our team can help you compare cushioning, grip, support, width and fit so you can choose shoes suited to where and how you move. Road runners may want lightweight cushioning for flat city paths, walkers may need stable support for daily use, and those heading into the Port Hills or forest trails may benefit from extra grip and structure.

Our store also carries a big range of specials, generally made up of last season’s models and colours from leading brands, normally priced at 30% to 50% off normal RRP.

For technical footwear advice, leading sports brands and a wide range of running, walking, gym, sport, kids’ and casual shoes, visit Smiths Sports Shoes Christchurch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the Christchurch team can help assess your fit and movement pattern in-store. Gait analysis is useful if you are unsure whether you need a neutral, stability, cushioned or supportive shoe.

Use the store’s current returns and refunds policy for exact conditions. If unsure, contact the Christchurch store or the online team before returning your shoes.

Podiatry consultations are not currently listed for the Christchurch store. If you need specialist foot advice, contact the store and the team can let you know what support is available.

Yes, the Christchurch store stocks a large kids’ selection and footwear for running, walking, cross training, gym, netball, indoor sport, tennis, football and everyday activity.

Smiths Sports Shoes stocks a range of width options across selected running, walking and training shoes. Visit the Christchurch store for help finding the best fit.

The best shoe depends on your foot shape, activity, support needs and how the shoe feels when you try it on. Our Christchurch team can help with fit, comfort, cushioning and stability so you can choose footwear suited to your needs.

Most running and walking shoes last around 500 to 800km, depending on your body weight, running style, surface and how often you wear them. If the cushioning feels flat, the outsole is worn, or you are noticing new aches, it may be time to replace them.

Running shoes should feel secure, but not tight or uncomfortable. You usually need a little space at the front of the shoe to allow for foot movement, swelling and downhill running. Our team can help check the fit properly in-store.

Many running, walking and sports shoes have removable insoles, which can allow room for orthotics. Bring your orthotics into the Christchurch store and our team can help check the fit inside suitable shoes.

Yes, the Christchurch store carries a big range of specials, generally made up of last season’s models and colours from leading brands, normally priced at 30% to 50% off normal RRP.
