Located on Trinity Street in Hastings, Wisdens is the town’s most celebrated sporting institution, having supplied clothing and equipment for 120 years.
Founded in 1896 by Arthur Wisden, the shop has been managed by five generations of the Wisden family. Initially selling hunting, shooting, and fishing gear, Wisdens now specialises in equipment for cricket, tennis, hockey, rugby, athletics and dance, with an extensive range of products including protective gear and shoes for different sports.
Despite competition from large retailers like Sports Direct and the rise of online shopping, Wisdens continues to thrive by offering knowledgeable advice and personalised service that large chain stores can’t match.
Anyone who visits the shop connected to the Rye Tennis Club, qualifies for a 20% discount (not in conjunction with any other offer). Just mention the Club when you are in the shop.
