I've been the Adidas shop once (it's next door to CrossFit Manchester)

It operates some kind of membership thing, not sure how it works or if it costs, but one of the CrossFit people gave me a ticket/voucher/pass to get in and each time you buy something you get two new ticket/voucher/pass things.

Just searched and found these threads, sheds a little more light

Went to the Factory shop today and you don't need a pass to get in anymore, but unfortunately unless you're a size 12 up or a size 6 down they were out of Swoops.

Shame!

I've got a pair of new swoops; tried them on sunday on sections of the tour of pendle route.

I reckon they're similar in feel to a walsh pb. Grip was excellent on all except slab rock paths (what fell shoe is anyone good on that stuff!), fit was snug and close. They do come up small; i'm in a half size bigger) and they are fairly narrow across the forefoot compared with an inov-8.

I think they're probably a short race shoe ideally, i'll be sticking to the mudclaw for the t.o.p, but that's mainly 'cos my feet are used to it.
