November 19th, 2024
The story of Buffalo begins in 1979 in Germany, when Michael Conradi founded what would soon become the leading company importing quality cowboy boots from Mexico to Europe, Buffalo Boots GmbH. The name itself reflects the brand's great authenticity and Conradi's interests, a passionate enthusiast of the Wild West, as well as the bold, strong, and powerful nature of Buffalo shoes. Over the years, the brand has grown and expanded, producing iconic sneakers in the '80s and '90s that graced the feet of the era's biggest pop stars. In 1995, the Platform sole became a timeless classic of rave and youth culture, with a design that perfectly embodied the personality of the decade. Through a unique fusion of urban design and underground influences, the brand continues to be a reference point for contemporary fashion and trends emerging both online and offline. Like the people who love Buffalo, the German brand's shoes remain bold and cutting-edge, preserving the same wild spirit that fascinated its founder in the 1970s.
Buffalo is now a symbol of individuality, a brand that speaks to all those who want to express themselves boldly and authentically. Despite undergoing several transformations over the years, the company has always kept its rebellious spirit and strong sense of initiative alive, qualities reflected in the new FW24 collection. Dedicated to different personalities, the Buffalo FW24 collection targets three main consumer groups: the Misfit, the Urbans, and the Fashionista, representing the various facets of contemporary style. The Misfit embodies those who defy conventions, standing out with a unique and assertive style. Here, models like Aspha Nc Mid capture Buffalo's rebellious spirit, with an eye-catching design perfect for stepping out with confidence and energy.
The models designed for Urbans celebrate modern city dwellers seeking a balance between practicality and elegance to tackle the dynamism of urban life. Designed for those who face the daily challenges of the city, these models combine sturdiness and style, with durable soles, warm linings, and lace-up details ideal for adapting to unpredictable weather. Available in neutral tones such as dark red, black, and nude, the Urbans boots reflect a sophisticated palette perfectly suited for the season and a versatile style. The Mars Chelsea Boot, another offering in this line, is a modern reinterpretation of the Chelsea boot, perfect for urban souls looking for a shoe that is professional yet original, with a design balanced between functionality and resilience. The models aimed at the Fashionista, on the other hand, cater to those unafraid to showcase their unique and distinctive style. Designed for those who want to add a bold touch to their wardrobe, the line includes boots and loafers inspired by grunge and models that blend elegance with edge, like biker boots with a daring design. In this line, black remains the protagonist color, ensuring a timeless aesthetic suitable for any outfit. This part of the collection allows for a strong and distinctive perspective with a chic and innovative touch. With a collection created to represent the diverse personalities of metropolitan cities – from the Misfit to the Urban, and finally the Fashionista – Buffalo renews its commitment to responsible style, crafting the entire collection in vegan leather to uniquely merge ethics and fashion.
