The Outpost
5a Winn Street, Fortitude
Valley
The Outpost is probably Brisbane’s
trendiest store. It’s
always on the look out for the
next big thing, long before it
hits Australian shores in mass
production. You can rely on
the Outpost and their wellinformed
and ultra resourceful
staff to keep you in the know
with all things hip, from clothing
to music and books to
wares. It’s worth noting that
this store is extremely hard to
find as it’s tucked in an alley off
the main road. We recommend
you Google it before wandering
aimlessly or you could be
searching for hours.

Goodtime Surf & Sail
29 Ipswitch Rd,
Wooloongabba
There could only really be two
reasons why you’d find yourself
in Queensland; to study, or
to surf. When it comes to the
latter, Goodtime Surf & Sail is
your one stop shop for all things
water sports. Located at the city
fringe of Wooloongabba, these
guys also hand shape their
boards and have been doing
so since 1971. Through their 39
years of experience, you can ask
them about the best surf spots
along the Gold and Sunshine
Coasts.

Rebel Sports
Shop 1, Queen Adelaide
Building 90-112 Queen St
Mall, Brisbane
If you can kick it, throw it, swing
it or punch it, you can probably
find it here. Sport is a great way
to meet new people and stay in
shape, so, if you’re missing the
sports you used to play at home
or are looking to try something
new, Rebel Sports can probably
help you out with the equipment.
They also stock a large
range of popular sports clothing
and shoes. Popular brands
include Adidas, Nike, Lonsdale,
Asics, Puma and Everlast. Not all
of the fashion is sports related
either. Some of the stocked
apparel is in modern street and
urban styles.
