Munich sneakers: 10 city shops and 4 outlying outlets

Munich’s sneaker scene has more than one center of gravity. KICKZ grew out of basketball, BSTN built its home base around sportswear and streetwear, and SHRN puts skateboarding at the heart of its selection. Add dedicated running shops and Salomon’s outdoor range, and the city offers good reasons to look beyond a single list of popular silhouettes.

This guide covers ten shops within Munich and four outlet branches outside the city. Brunnthal has both adidas and Nike, Parsdorf belongs to Vaterstetten, and Ingolstadt is a different city. Keep those extensions separate from an afternoon in central Munich.

Plan the old-town stops and Maxvorstadt separately

Start the central group with KICKZ on Herzog-Wilhelm-Straße, solebox on Altheimer Eck, and Salomon on Sendlinger Straße. New Balance, Titus, and Laufzentrum are also central options. Hypeworld adds Frauenstraße near Viktualienmarkt, but its opening hours need direct confirmation.

BSTN is on Amalienstraße in Maxvorstadt. Build it into the day before its 7 p.m. closing time rather than assuming it stays open as late as KICKZ or solebox. SHRN on Baaderstraße and LAUFBAR on Am Münchner Tor offer different reasons to extend the route.

The regular Monday–Saturday schedules of BSTN, solebox, KICKZ, and Salomon overlap from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. That is a planning window, not a timetable for every store below: Laufzentrum has much shorter retail hours, and the external outlets close on Sundays.

Sportswear, basketball and outdoor in the initial cluster

BSTN Munich

BSTN opened its first flagship in Maxvorstadt in 2013. Its catalog connects Jordan, Nike, adidas, and New Balance with Mitchell & Ness, Patta, Carhartt WIP, and BSTN’s own label. The mix of sportswear, team apparel, and streetwear makes it a useful place to build an outfit around the shoes.

Our guide to sneaker collaborations offers context for that overlap between brands and creative partners. BSTN does not offer Click & Collect for online orders; its separate store-request service is explained in the FAQ below.

Address: Amalienstraße 44, 80799 Munich, Germany.

Regular hours: Monday–Saturday, 11 a.m.–7 p.m.; closed on public holidays.

solebox Munich

Munich was solebox’s second location, giving Altheimer Eck a retailer with a strong connection to sneaker collecting and street culture. Its catalog brings Nike, Jordan, New Balance, adidas Originals, and ASICS SportStyle together with clothing labels such as Carhartt WIP and A Bathing Ape.

The store’s restored wine-cellar concept gives that collecting theme a local setting. It is a useful counterpoint to KICKZ’s basketball specialization and Salomon’s outdoor focus nearby.

Address: Altheimer Eck 6, 80331 Munich, Germany.

Regular hours: Monday–Saturday, 11 a.m.–8 p.m.

KICKZ Munich Stachus

KICKZ began in Munich in November 1993, amid the excitement generated by the 1992 Dream Team and Germany’s European Championship win the following year. A small local basketball shop grew into a mail-order business serving fans across Europe. That history still explains its focus better than a generic sneaker-store label.

The range spans performance basketball shoes, NBA jerseys, fan gear, lifestyle sneakers, and apparel. For more on the sport’s influence off court, read our Air Jordan 1 history.

Address: Herzog-Wilhelm-Straße 1, 80331 Munich, Germany.

Regular hours: Monday–Saturday, 10 a.m.–8 p.m.; Sunday closed.

Salomon Store München

Salomon on Sendlinger Straße connects the brand’s sportstyle audience with its performance roots. The branch catalog includes XT-6 and XT-Whisper alongside running, hiking, and winter-sports products. It is a broader outdoor store than its familiar trail-inspired streetwear silhouettes might suggest.

The branch also advertises running events, product tests, and workshops. Check its current program if you want to join an activity rather than simply browse.

Address: Sendlinger Straße 19, 80331 Munich, Germany.

Regular hours: Monday–Saturday, 10 a.m.–7 p.m.; Sunday closed.

Hypeworld München

Hypeworld is the collector-oriented sneaker and streetwear stop on Frauenstraße. Local guides Mr. München and STYLEFINDS place it in this part of the old town. Its role differs from a dedicated performance store: the interest is in collectible sneakers and the clothing around them.

A current timetable from the business has not been reconfirmed, and published schedules conflict. Confirm the day’s hours before making this a fixed appointment in your route.

Address: Frauenstraße 4, 80331 Munich, Germany.

Outside Munich: a separate trip to Brunnthal

adidas Outlet Store Brunnthal

adidas Brunnthal is an outlet at Zusestraße 7, 85649 Brunnthal, Germany, outside Munich. Its published listing gives Monday–Saturday hours of 10 a.m.–8 p.m., Sunday closed, plus Click & Collect and gift cards. Use the adidas store directory to check this destination.

Nike’s Factory Store is at number 5 on the same street. The two form a separate Brunnthal shopping trip, rather than an extension of the central walking route.

Before choosing a pair

Choose by the kind of shop you need: KICKZ for basketball, SHRN or Titus for skateboarding, LAUFBAR for running-shoe advice, and Laufzentrum for running and triathlon. BSTN, solebox, and Hypeworld bring different streetwear and collecting perspectives.

Keep the purchase channel in mind. Nike Brunnthal and Parsdorf explicitly accept Nike.com and Nike App returns; the two New Balance branches advertise a 30-day window from shipment for eligible web returns in new condition.

BSTN’s store FAQ offers exchange for goods or a voucher within 14 days for unused in-store purchases in original condition, rather than a cash refund. It does not accept online-order returns in-store. LAUFBAR also distinguishes its in-store exchange policy from online orders. These are change-of-mind policies, not a statement that faulty-goods claims are excluded.

Frequently asked questions

Which shops make sense for basketball or skateboarding?

KICKZ has Munich basketball roots dating to 1993 and a range spanning performance shoes, NBA jerseys, and off-court clothing. SHRN and Titus are the skate shops, with boards and components as well as footwear. Titus additionally advertises assembly, bearing cleaning, and longboard rental.

Where can I get running-shoe advice or a foot scan?

LAUFBAR offers shoe advice with video analysis and recommends booking a 30–45-minute visit. New Balance Neuhauser Straße and the Ingolstadt outlet list 3D scanners. Laufzentrum lists running analysis and has limited retail hours. Prices and appointment conditions differ; these listings are not a promise of free or medical services.

Can I collect an online BSTN order in Munich?

No Click & Collect is offered. A separate email-request service can bring catalog items to the store: a minimum of €150, up to three items, subject to capacity and confirmation by the team. Confirmed requests are held for one week and paid for in-store. This is not pickup of a completed online order.

Are the four outlets inside Munich?

No. adidas and Nike are in Brunnthal; Nike Parsdorf is in Vaterstetten; New Balance Ingolstadt Village is in Ingolstadt. All four publish Sunday closure. Brunnthal’s Nike opens at 9 a.m. on Saturdays, while its adidas opens at 10 a.m.

Choose the route that fits your interest

For a first visit, combine the central stores that match your interests and add BSTN in Maxvorstadt if sportswear and streetwear are the priority. A runner may get more from a booked LAUFBAR consultation than another general sneaker stop; a skater has two shops with actual hardware selections to explore.
