Forzani's Locker Room. . .

In 1974, John Forzani along with three Calgary Stampeder team-mates opened a 1,200 square foot retail location in Calgary known as "Forzani's Locker Room". The business grew steadily allowing the Company to expand its initial athletic footwear business to include clothing, licensed apparel and sports equipment.

In 1975, The TechShop by Forzani's opened and became Alberta’s original running and walking store. Our commitment to customer service, product knowledge, extensive product assortment, and the community makes us a long time consumer favorite. The TechShops' are staffed by athletes that take the time to understand their customer’s footwear and apparel needs. Each store is focused on running and walking but specialize in unique sports and fitness needs- especially hard to fit feet.

Our staff will inquire as to how much you walk, jog, or run. They will ask if you are experiencing any pain or discomfort during your activity. They will evaluate the type of footwear or apparel you are currently using to see if it supports your specific exercise goals. They will then recommend a product that best suits you in terms of comfort, support, and performance.

The TechShop is here to help you become an active sports participant.
