rebel Garden City

rebel’s newly enlarged concept store at Westfield Garden is designed for anything but a standard retail browsing session. It will take your shopping experience to a whole new ball game (literally)—you can shoot some hoops on a basketball court in the 'Home of Basketball' or kick a football around and test out your aim in the 'Home of Football. If you're more of a virtual sports fan, you can take a seat and play FIFA or MADDEN on the in-store video game console.

Another one of concept areas you'll find in the store is a ‘Running Zone,’ designed for customers to test out some new kicks on a treadmill before they buy. Don’t worry, there's experts on hand to help ensure they’re the perfect fit and style. Who wants to wait until they get home for a test run anyway? 

Not only does this particular rebel focus on giving you the brands you know and love, the concept store also has a heavy focus on 'her,' with an extensive range of both big name glabal activewear brands alongside smaller Australian brands like Nimble and L’urv. Even the changing rooms are designed with women in mind, with light settings that can be adjusted from dim to natural outdoor lighting.

Basically, if you're in the market for a new pair of kicks, some gear or anything else health and fitness related, you need to go and check it out.
