Where to buy cheap Soccer gear and apparel in Los Angeles?

If you just enrolled your little one in soccer, like I did, and you're looking for a money saving opportunity then I've got a couple places for you.

Since I just signed my son up in peewee soccer, I needed to buy gear from head to toe. And if you don't know already, it can get expensive. Very expensive, depending on the place you go to.

Here in Downtown Los Angeles we are fortunate to have vendors both wholesale and retail who offer bargains and steal prices. But, it can be quite chaotic. Since modern times calls for social media and networking, I like to look up business, get the address, go, get what I want, and get out. Let's just say i'm picky. But here you'll be lucky if these small business even create a yelp account. Most dont! Good luck getting help from other business, "i don't know where *so and so* is". Are you kidding me? You've been working here for over *God knows how many years* and you don't know? I call BS! So end you find yourself walking around and hoping you find what you look for. But lucky for you I have a bit of experience which I'm going to share with you ;-)

Let's begin with A-1 International Wholesale located at 340 S. San Pedro st, Los Angeles, CA 90013. This store sells brand Nikey items. Expect retail prices with youth shirt and shorts starting at $60. The people working here won't budge in their prices so it kind of defeats the whole purpose of Downtown LA bargaining. Unless your willing to fork over $100 for a head to toe soccer gear then I would suggest you go somewhere else.

If you go across the street on Boyd street you will find numerous vendors that specialize in soccer attire and gear. The best that I've found, which offered sizing for my 5 year old son, is at ARZA soccer. These people manufacture their own soccer gear. I managed to get a top and bottom set with socks and soccer shoes for under $40. This was my.number one place. The second place I liked was at Aragon Sports Inc, which is right around the corner. (330 Wall st ste#2, Los Angeles, CA 90013). They offer free printing on your soccer top. Personalization costs extra.

If your looking for adult soccer gear you can find them in the same places I mentioned above as well as on Boyd street. Cross sections are San Pedro and in between 4th and 3rd street. Good luck. ;)
