UK Forwarding, Done Right

Sports Direct Not Shipping to Ireland

Sports Direct stocks Nike, Adidas, Under Armour, Puma, and hundreds of sports brands at prices well below Irish sport shops — but their website only ships within the UK. PostUK gives you a UK delivery address so you can order from Sports Direct and forward to Ireland.

99p first month, then £7.99/month · Forwarding to Ireland from £18.55.

Why Sports Direct doesn't ship to Ireland

Sports Direct operates a UK-only delivery service. Their website, sportsdirect.com, does not accept Irish delivery addresses. This is a significant frustration for Irish customers — Sports Direct prices on major brands like Nike, Adidas, Under Armour, and Puma are often 20–40% lower than Irish equivalent stockists.

PostUK gives you a real UK delivery address. You shop Sports Direct normally, entering your PostUK UK address at checkout. We receive the parcel at our depot and forward it to your home in Ireland.
