SA-first Totalsports Women store opens in Cape Town

Totalsports Women, a South African-first retail experience for women, opened yesterday in Cavendish Square. As the only multi-branded store of-its-kind in Africa, women now have premium international active wear brands to choose from, while making use of expert running services in-store.

Totalsports’ latest offering provides personalised services such as bra fittings, gait and foot analysis and running tights alterations by representatives with excellent product knowledge and experience in wellness and fitness.

Charmaine Claasens, Totalsports’ Head of Marketing, says, “Wellness is now a major global trend among women and South Africa is no different.  We are thrilled to open what promises to be a world-class retail experience configured for women. The store aspires to create an experience to help Cape Town’s women make the right choices. And to look and feel good doing it.”

After extensive research the store design has been modelled on global trends by following a minimalist approach, allowing for a smooth journey with the primary focus on an engaging and interactive experience.

“The store itself is a standalone store that offers women shoppers a different experience from the existing Cavendish Totalsports store. Much of our research findings pointed to the fact that there is a need for an holistic, multi-brand shopping experience that women feel comfortable in,” continues Claasens.

The launch event saw a range of active lifestyle enthusiasts get to experience the store first-hand. Sarah Koopman, from Gardens, said, ”A store by women for women filled with women is welcoming and more conducive to learning and gaining knowledge on your fitness journey, as It can be an intimidating process.”

The new store caters to running, training and lifestyle needs through a unique premium multi-brand experience, stocking Nike, adidas, Asics, New Balance, Puma and technical brands like Tom Tom, FitBit and Garmin.

This is just one of the many exciting new store offerings in addition to the recent successful launch of the Totalsports online store.
