Meet Ben and Niamh. They work for sportsshoes.com, the UK’s fastest-growing outdoor retailer, which joined #walk1000miles as a partner this year for the first time. Apart from looking great in hats and being wildly enthusiastic about the challenge (they're well on their way to their 1000) Ilkley-based Niamh and top fel-runner Ben want you to know something. And it’s this: in spite of the name, Sportsshoes.com has a huge range of outdoor gear in all categories – including brands like Scarpa, The North Face, Salomon, Deuter, Montane and many more, and as a signed-up #walk1000miles participant you're entitled to a further 15% off their already keen prices. (You get a unique code when you sign up for the challenge, but if you’ve lost yours fear not. You can fix that at www.walk1000miles.co.uk/discounts).
You can feel confident in ordering too, as Sportsshoes.com has already earned praise from 1000 milers. Says Becky Egan: “I love Sportsshoes, always try and order from there if I can! Great customer service and speedy delivery too! Love it!”. Vicks Chat-Nin concurs: “Excellent customer service. I had to return a pair of boots and it was zero fuss and quick refund.”
