Castore opens pop-up outlet store in Ireland’s Kildare Village

Premium British sportswear brand Castore has opened a 3,756 sq ft pop-up store – set to run for three months - at designer outlet shopping destination Kildare Village in County Kildare, Ireland.

The store is offering Castore men’s, women’s, unisex and junior products at outlet prices, with offers starting at 33% off RRP.

The pop-up store follows the recent announcement of a multi-year kit supply and sponsorship partnership between Castore and the Football Association of Ireland (FAI).

The new partnership saw Castore reveal the Republic of Ireland’s new national football kit last month, celebrating the colours of Ireland and the history of the shirt.

To celebrate the new store, Castore hosted a two-day event over the bank holiday weekend, featuring an in-store DJ and free Castore goody bags for all shoppers.

Additionally, those attending the store over launch weekend had the chance to enter a special competition to be in with a chance of winning two hospitality tickets to a Republic of Ireland game, a Castore gift voucher and the new home kit.

Tom Beahon, Co-Founder at Castore, said: “We are incredibly excited to be opening our new pop-up store at Kildare Village. The shopping destination is home to so many other great brands, so we’re happy to be in good company and looking to welcoming shoppers through our doors.

“Following our partnership with FAI, another store in Ireland made perfect sense and we are excited to grow our presence in the Irish premium sportswear market.”While this is Castore’s first pop-up outlet store, the brand currently has three further outlet stores: Castore Cheshire Oaks, Castore Cannock and Castore Livingston.
