The story of Buffalo begins with cowboy boots. In 1976, Michael Conradi discovered cowboy boots during a trip to Mexico. He initially sold these boots only by mail order, but a year later, he opened his own store in the German city of Wiesbaden. In 1984, sneakers were also added to the collection.
Great success
The sale of the sneakers was a huge success. They were produced in twenty different colors and sold outside of Germany as well. In 1995, the sneaker reached new heights with the introduction of a platform sole. Although initially unknown internationally, it became a classic among sneakers. It became a sought-after item, especially among techno fans, teenagers, and celebrities. The popularity of the Spice Girls further boosted the Buffalo sneaker, making it a symbol of the 90s.
The sneakers are characterized by a chunky silhouette and a thick platform sole. The iconic models were temporarily out of sight but have now been rediscovered and are back in style. Various celebrities have been spotted wearing these eye-catching platform sneakers.
Update
After all these years, the sneaker has received an update. The sneakers now feel lighter due to a lighter platform sole, also known as the cloud sole. However, the chunky appearance has remained the same. The collection has expanded beyond sneakers and now includes sandals made from high-quality materials such as vegan leather.
Buffalo's Vision
For Buffalo, nothing is clearer in life than being true to themselves. They base everything on daring to be different. Whether it's personal or societal challenges, they embrace them. It's their style, their love, and their way of expressing themselves. Dare comes in all colors, shapes, and sizes.
