With warm weather and often a little extra free time, summer is the perfect season to get moving. Whether you are hitting the field, court, pavement, or setting up in your home gym, Avalon Mall has everything you need to fuel your passion for play. From the latest athletic gear to healthy snacks to keep you energized, here is your guide to summer sport essentials, all conveniently located under one roof.
Sneakers & Footwear
Having the right pair of sneakers for your activity is key to staying comfortable, avoiding injury, and performing at your best.
Running Sneakers
If you are planning to run wild this summer, you will want footwear that offers proper cushioning, reliable support, and long-lasting durability. Whether you are a seasoned runner or just getting started, the knowledgeable team at Sport Chek can help you find the perfect running sneakers based on your stride, surface preference, and personal goals.
Basketball Sneakers
Taking to the courts? A great basketball shoe should offer breathability, ankle support, and a splash of style. Check out Foot Locker for high-performance basketball sneakers that are built to keep up with your every move and look good while doing it.
Running Sneakers
If your summer includes trail exploration or weekend hiking trips, a quality pair of hiking boots is a must. Look for boots that offer ankle stability, water resistance, and rugged grip to keep you secure on uneven ground. Sport Chek has a wide selection of trail-ready footwear to help you take on any adventure in comfort.
Athletic Wear
Do not let summer heat hold you back. The right athletic wear can keep you cool, dry, and comfortable while you sweat it out in the sun.
Breathable Tanks
Lightweight and loose-fitting tanks made from breathable materials such as bamboo or mesh blends are a workout essential. Choosing light colours over dark tones will help reflect the sun and keep you cooler outdoors.
Flowy Bottoms
Whether you prefer shorts, capris, or full-length pants, make sure your workout bottoms are lightweight and allow for plenty of airflow. Flowy styles in lighter fabrics and colours not only boost comfort but also help regulate your body temperature during activity.
Hats and Hair Accessories
A comfortable baseball hat is a smart addition to any summer workout, offering shade and protection from the sun. And for long hair, no one wants it sticking to their neck while they move. Keep your hair up and your style cute with a scrunchie or other fun hair accessory that adds flair while staying functional.
Find the Right Gear
Whether you play team sports or prefer solo workouts, Avalon Mall has everything you need to gear up for fun and fitness this summer.
Soccer and Softballs
From softballs to soccer balls, Marshalls often carries a great selection of sporting goods. Inventory may vary, but it is always worth checking in for a great deal on balls and other essential gear.
Biking Accessories
If you are cycling for leisure or training hard for a fitness goal, the right accessories can make all the difference. Mountain Warehouse carries a variety of biking must-haves including gloves, water bottles, reflective gear, and cycling bags to help keep your rides smooth and safe.
Home Gym Essentials
Prefer to train at home? Winners has a rotating selection of home gym equipment that can take your workouts to the next level. Discover yoga mats, hand weights, resistance bands, and other functional tools to build strength and flexibility from the comfort of your own space.
Fuel Up
Staying active requires the right fuel. Avalon Mall offers plenty of healthy snack options to help you stay energized before or after your workout.
Booster Juice
Packed with fruit and superfoods, smoothies from Booster Juice are a refreshing way to recharge. Grab a nutrient-rich smoothie, fresh juice, or nourishing snack for a quick energy boost that tastes as good as it is good for you.
