Buffalo Kids Opening First Ever Store at Walden Galleria
— Local lifestyle brand set to open brick and mortar location at WNY’s largest shopping center —

Buffalo, NY:  With an assortment of Buffalo sports t-shirts, sweatshirts and jerseys, Buffalo Kids has cultivated a unique apparel line that plans to take their virtual online store to Walden Galleria.  Buffalo Kids is planning to open their first ever brick and mortar location in a 1,320 sq. ft. store on the lower level of the shopping center near Starbucks. The local lifestyle brand has plans to open after the first of the year.

Buffalo Kids was founded by rapper and Buffalo native, Westside Gunn, along with local rappers, Conway the Machine (brother) and Benny the Butcher (cousin). In 2014, Westside Gunn founded Griselda Records and clothing brand Fashion Rebels. Two years later after releasing his first commercial album, Griselda Records signed a music deal with Eminem Shady Records, a subsidiary of Interscope, establishing Westside Gunn and Conway the Machine as the first Buffalo rappers to ever sign with a major label.

The store will feature Buffalo Kids and Westside Gunn apparel, along with his wrestling company’s clothing line, Fourth Rope, and items from Griselda by Fashion Rebels. Plans are also in the works to host meet and greet events with celebrities, both national and local, inside the store. The Buffalo Kids brand has a strong online following within the local community, which owner Westside Gunn hopes to launch further at the area’s largest shopping center.

“This is one of the most exciting times of my life. Growing up in Buffalo, Walden Galleria has always been the premier shopping center. At age 14, I started designing clothing and I’ve always been taught the sky’s the limit,” says Westside Gunn. “I wanted to bring a lifestyle brand for the people and give them the highest quality garments at a high fashion designer level. I breathe art and this will give the city something to be proud of. I will do my best to provide experiences the town has never seen before. Thank you for supporting Griselda and now, I present to you, Buffalo Kids.”

Fans and customers are encouraged to visit www.buffalokids.myshopify.com who want to start browsing online before experiencing the brand in person.
