At Decathlon we pride ourselves in our offering of affordable sporting goods. We work closely with our brands and suppliers to get the best quality products with low prices to go with them.
Our aim at Decathlon Ireland is to make sport accessible for the many in our country and one of the ways we do this successfully, is by offering entry level sports equipment at the lowest price on the market, while remaining to use high quality materials and designs.
One of the efforts that we commit to at Decathlon Ireland, is having the lowest price on the market for entry level products, equipment and clothing for over 70 different sports. This makes it easier and more affordable for our customers to try new sports without compromising on quality, while also saving with our competitive prices.
