Sneaker shops in Warsaw 2026: the full list of stores, addresses and opening hours

Sneaker shops in Warsaw sit almost entirely within a twenty-minute walk of one another, which makes the city one of the easiest sneaker trips in Europe to plan. Below is the full list of sneaker stores in Warsaw: addresses, opening hours, and the one legal quirk that catches out every visitor.

TL;DR

  • Nearly every shop worth visiting sits in Śródmieście, the central district, within walking distance

  • Chmielna street alone holds two of the most important stores

  • Poland restricts Sunday trading, so most shops are closed on most Sundays

  • Warsaw Sneaker Store carries the largest Nike Sportswear selection in the city

  • Independent Warsaw boutiques are not in the cashback programme, though Snipes has Polish stores and a webshop

The one thing to know before you plan

Poland operates a Sunday trading ban. Most Sundays across the year are non-trading days, with only a handful of designated trading Sundays, usually clustered around Christmas and Easter and the ends of certain months.

This is why you will see contradictory opening hours online. Sizeer lists Sunday hours because it opens on trading Sundays; Foot Locker in the same shopping centre lists Sunday as closed. Both are accurate, depending on the week.

Practically: check whether your Sunday is a trading Sunday before you travel, or build the trip around Friday and Saturday. It is the same problem Berlin has, with the difference that Warsaw occasionally makes an exception and Berlin never does.

Sneaker shops on and around Chmielna

Chmielna is a pedestrianised street running off Nowy Świat, and it is where Warsaw's sneaker retail concentrates.

Warsaw Sneaker Store

Address: ul. Chmielna 20, 00-020 Warsaw. Some listings give ul. Szpitalna 4, so check before setting offOpening hours: Monday to Saturday. Closed Sunday

The most established sneaker boutique in the city, trading under the tagline "Run Forrest, Run" and the domain chmielna20.pl. The main draw is the largest Nike Sportswear collection in Warsaw, covering historic Cortez, Air Force 1 and Air Max alongside limited editions.

If you only visit one shop in Warsaw, this is it.

7Store

Address: ul. Chmielna 7, 00-021 Warsaw

A few doors along the same street. The focus is current releases across a broad brand list: New Balance, Converse, Le Coq Sportif, Vans, Nike and adidas, plus a good deal beyond the obvious names.

Being on the same street as Warsaw Sneaker Store makes the two a natural pairing, and between them you can cover the mainstream and the limited in fifteen minutes.

Boutiques in central Warsaw

Dots

Address: plac Konstytucji 5, 00-550 WarsawOpening hours: Monday to Friday 12:00 to 19:00, Saturday 12:00 to 16:00. Closed Sunday

The boutique for anyone chasing pairs that left retail. Dots deals in hyped releases, vintage and resale, which makes it the place to look for something no longer available at retail anywhere.

Note the short Saturday hours. Four hours is a narrow window, so build the day around it rather than leaving Dots until last.

Old Silos

Address: ul. Hoża 35, 00-681 Warsaw

A specialist in retro classics and adidas Originals, built around the aesthetics of 1980s British football casual culture. Nike Sportswear and Puma Archive also feature.

This is the most distinctive shop on the list and the one with the clearest point of view. If terrace culture and archive adidas mean something to you, this is worth the walk more than anything else in the city.

Chains and shopping centres

Sizeer

Address: Złote Tarasy, ul. Złota 59, 00-120 WarsawOpening hours: Monday to Saturday 09:00 to 22:00, Sunday 09:00 to 21:00 on trading Sundays

The Polish equivalent of Foot Locker, operating around 200 stores nationally alongside an online platform and an app. Nike, adidas, Reebok and more, plus apparel and accessories.

Not the place for rarities, but the long opening hours make it the fallback when the boutiques have closed.

Foot Locker

Address: Złote Tarasy, ul. Złota 59, 00-120 WarsawOpening hours: Monday to Saturday 09:00 to 22:00. Closed Sunday

In the same shopping centre as Sizeer, directly above the central railway station. Useful for a standard pair in a specific size.

Snipes

Multiple Warsaw locations

The German chain has a substantial Polish presence. Worth knowing about because, unlike the independents on this list, Snipes runs a webshop covered by the Soleback cashback programme, returning up to 4.5 percent of the order value.

What Warsaw does not have

Worth saying plainly, because it sets expectations. Warsaw has no Supreme chapter store, no KITH, no Solebox and no Footpatrol. The city is not on the European boutique circuit in the way Berlin, Paris and London are.

What it has instead is a compact, walkable set of independents with genuinely different specialities: one for Nike Sportswear depth, one for archive adidas, one for resale and vintage. That is a different proposition, and for a day trip it works.

Buying online with cashback

None of Warsaw's independent boutiques are in the Soleback programme, so the cashback route runs through the international retailers that ship to Poland:

On a 600 zł pair the 5 percent rate returns 30 zł. The click through Soleback needs to be the last one before the shop, and cashback lands after the returns window closes.

A half-day route through Warsaw

Warsaw does not need a full day, and that is a feature rather than a criticism.

Start on Chmielna. Warsaw Sneaker Store at number 20, then 7Store at number 7. Ten minutes covers both.

Walk to plac Konstytucji. Dots, roughly fifteen minutes on foot through Śródmieście. Check the hours first, especially on a Saturday.

Then Hoża. Old Silos is a few minutes from plac Konstytucji.

Finish at Złote Tarasy. Sizeer and Foot Locker, next to the central station, and open latest of anything on this list.

The whole loop takes three to four hours at a comfortable pace, which leaves the rest of the day for the city itself.
