No actual stores in Boston, because really, most of the good stuff in Boston exists in the suburbs.
1) Baggataway in Brookline, MA. Only 10-15 minutes from Boston. Small store, but great guys and good selection. They sponsor most of the local towns, and they're some of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Pretty cheap too (10% discounts floating everywhere with them). They use GTGLax as their mesh supplier, just a heads up.
2) ComLax in Framingham. 20 minutes from Boston. ComLax pretty much dominates the New England area for lacrosse stores. They're very similar to Lacrosse Unlimited-huge selection, but overpriced, no good deals, and the workers can be not too great.
3) ComLax in Weymouth. Like 30-40 minutes from Boston. A bit bigger than Framingham, that's about it.
Any other places (Imagination Sports, GBLax) are over an hour away from Boston, so I doubt you'll wanna go.
Also, visit Nickerson for a Cannons game. One of the best venues for the MLL, probably second to Paetec Park in Rochester.

what about Brines in cambridge? is that still there? it was a regular old sporting goods store, but had lots of lax equipment, most of my lax gear in boarding school came from there

I highly suggest baggataway. brookline head coach owns it.
Ps it doesn't carry warrior.
I was about to make this thread too. I'm going to Boston soon and my parents are going to give me $100 to spend there for dragging me along. Are there any stores in Cambridge?

The only ones that still exist are in Sudbury and Belmont, which is pretty far away from the Boston area. Hell, I'm not even sure if they're still open, because NOBODY around here goes to them anymore. My friend's dad used to run one of the stores.
