American football / sports shops in orlando?

[susanita]

hi , my DS plays american football and will be looking to get some new kit in orlando , does anyone know where there are any american football/sports shops in orlando?

[Lesley Cassidy]

[susanita]

We also go to The Ultimate Sports Fan in the Florida Mall. Not as big as a Sports Dominator but still well stocked.

Ah ... gridiron, a subject close to my heart as I used to play the game :)

Everytime I go to America I am dissapointed to visit stores like Sports Dominator and those at the Malls where the cost of a replica shirt is > $90. I've not bought a single shirt whilst I've been there yet I've still managed to build up a large collection via traders on Ebay. Most of the shirts I've got, including rare college ones, have been bought for less than £33. My favourite, a Steelers "Polamalu" Superbowl shirt was £36.

I hope your son manages to find what he's looking for!

My son plays AF too and we have very rarely been able to get kit for him in the shops and believe me I've been to all of them. However, he is 6ft 2in and plays for Uni. What we do now is order stuff on line and I have it delivered to the villa.

However, if your son is younger I've found the best selection of pants, gloves, etc to be at Sports Authority at The Loop who cater for schoolboy football, they stock items from March throughout the summer. We did pick up a pair of receiver gloves at the Premium Outlets once but they've never had them again. You can get replica shirts pretty much anywhere.

he's 15 and 6ft 1 , he needs some new pads and trousers.

There's a guy who lives near us who sells them but he charges £150 for a helmet that's $125. thanks for the responses guys.

There's a sports shop at DTD although I have no idea what the price of things are.
