Founded in 1979 in Germany by Michael Conradi, Buffalo originally started as a retail business for cowboy boots before expanding into sports shoes. The brand achieved global cult status in 1995 with the launch of its signature "Classics" line, featuring comically chunky platform sneakers that became synonymous with the 90s rave scene and the "girl power" movement spearheaded by the Spice Girls. Buffalo London serves as the brand's more fashion-forward sub-label, focusing on bold, streetwear-inspired footwear that champions a non-conformist, unisex aesthetic.
