Tuxedo Source For Sports
In the late 1960s, a collection of sporting goods stores in Southwestern Ontario Canada decided to buy as a group, allowing them to create better value for their customers. This buying group grew to become the brand known today as Source For Sports. They have now over 150 retail locations across the country and the United States Of America. Source For Sports stores are independently owned and operated, meaning store owners can customize their sport categories, products, and services they offer to cater to the needs of the community they call home. As owners are athletes themselves, Source For Sports knows that there’s a perfect fit for every athlete, and they do everything they can to help find that fit for every individual that visits them across the country.

“Excellent service and knowledge at this long time staple for runners of all levels. Excellent selection of widths. I have a hard to find, 9AA width, and was shown several options along with a style of runner that I initially went there for. I ended up trying a new style thanks to the suggestion of Sebastian, which is working out great! Really nice selection of women and men’s running gear and clothing too that can also be used for other sports. This is an excellent small business to support!” – Daisy Rdd
