Posted on July 28, 2023

The summer holidays are in full swing and whether you’re jetting off abroad with the family, stay-cationing in the UK, or hoping to get a tan in your back garden (let’s hope we get some sun this month!) — here’s a hand-picked list of summer essentials that you can pick up at GSP.

From activewear must-haves at JD Sports or SportsDirect.com to trending beauty buys at Boots, this list has everything you need to look good and feel good this summer season!

 Must-haves from: JD sports

Press ‘play’ on summer with JD Sports’ summer collection. From footballs and tennis rackets to your favourite swimwear, tees, shorts and loads more for the whole fam — JD Sports is a one-stop shop for loading up that suitcase. Although, you might be in danger of exceeding your baggage allowance… But that has nothing to do with us!

Summer is all about those bright and bold colours — and this season, Adidas has the best colour palette to match. This men’s Triangle Back T-shirt will level up any look, whether it’s paired with some shorts ready for a day by the beach, or with comfy cargos for hitting the town.

Now for women’s wear… I think we can all agree that nothing says Adidas more than its iconic 3-Stripes — that’s why this Adidas Originals yellow slim dress is not a want but a *need* for your summer wardrobe! Perfect for styling up or down.

Must-haves from: Boots

One thing is certain, the temperature isn't getting any colder in Europe at the moment, so if you are travelling out of what feels like peak winter season into the sizzling weather of Europe, then Boots have everything you need to pack light and efficiently.

Suitable for all ages, this Family Essentials Pack of Soltan UVA and SPF will protect your skin in the hottest of conditions. The family pack also includes a soothe and moisturise after sun lotion — just in case you sit by the pool for too long!

To make the experience of travelling slightly better, Boots have a great range of travel essentials that’ll make any family trip easy — from a Travel Nightshade Eye mask to block out the sun, and a Deluxe Travel Pillow for a mid-flight nap to this Bamboo Bottle set to keep your most loved beauty products safe in the case. The best part? They are all under £30.00 so you don’t even have to break the bank!

Must-haves from: SportsDirect.com

Swimwear and beachwear are essentials for summer holidays abroad or weekend getaways to the coast. Luckily for you, our SportsDirect.com store has plenty to peruse — from beach cover-ups to the hottest names in sportswear. And what's more, they’ve added hundreds of beachy items to their summer sale!

Perfect for a day at the beach club or a stroll during sunset, this Palm Print Sheer Mesh cover-up is the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe. Whether you want to dress it up with heels or go for a casual look with sandals — this versatile staple will look good with anything! 

And for the men, you can never go wrong with a pair of Nike swim shorts. Available in 8 different colours, these Core Swim Shorts are perfect for a beach day, a dip in the pool, or for pairing with a tee. Currently available from a size XS to 2XL!

Must-haves from: Matalan

Last, but not least — Matalan is perfect for treating the kids to some new summer ‘fits! This Boys Tonal Colour Sun Hat is simultaneously cool and cute. Alternatively, we love this Yellow Animal Print Sun Hat — which will offer protection from the sun, while keeping your toddler on-trend.

Meanwhile, this Pastel Crochet Sun Hat is giving ‘90s baby’ but in the summer of 2023 — so it’s sure does give any fashion icon a run for their money. But if that’s not quite your little one’s thing, why not try this simple but sweet Pink Linen Bucket Sun Hat?

Whichever hat you choose, they’ll be the envy of the kids’ club — no doubt.
