Editorial Review for Sportie LA – by Arthur Brennan
In Short
Right across from Fairfax High School, this sporty sneaker shop is actually two stores in one, with one offering sweats, T-shirts and gym bags, and the other carrying a dizzying array of athletic footwear. Both concentrate on hip-hop and skater styles. The low-priced shoe shop carries all the major brands--Converse, Nike, New Balance, Puma. Whether you're looking for something you just saw on the courts or a style that's more retro, you'll find it here.

I am one of these people that only wears flip-flops, even to fancy places, but if I absolutely MUST buy a pair of closed-toe shoes, Sportie LA is the only place I would go. It's cramped, noisy, parking is impossible, service isn't great.. But there are just SO many shoes, particularly the Pumas I tend to covet. It's not as "cool" as Undefeated but there's way less attitude, which means that it wins the battle of sneakers stores, at least as far as I am concerned.

I ordered online, and called them at least 4 times within 2 weeks to see if they shippied it out yet. It took 2 weeks for them to ship it out, and 2 days for it to get to my house!!! I live only an hour away from their store! All they used for shipping was the shoe box and brown wrapping paper. Very bad customer service online.
Pros: Quality shoes
Cons: Bad customer service, Poor packaging
