Denver’s Own Family Affair Lifestyle Clothing and Hair Studio to Reignite The Same High Energy In New Downtown Location

Denver, CO – August 30, 2010 – “We’re Back!” This is the slogan you will see in the blacked out windows of Family Affair’s new location.  Located on 20th and Larimer Street, the new store will open on September 10th, 2010.  After three months of renovating the historic building, Family Affair’s Denver location is ready to open it’s doors back up.  During this time no detail was spared, as the new shop boasts an entirely new layout featuring bamboo flooring, 7 styling stations and double the retail space of the previous store. However, this is only the beginning as Family Affair continues to push forward. With a location that is centralized in one of the city’s most accessible areas, co-owners Jason Ngo and Donovan Kahler are excited about all of the possibilities the new location brings.

“We have 3000 sq ft on one of the most active streets in Colorado, two blocks away from the Colorado Rockies’ Coor’s Field and surrounded by nightlife.  This location serves as the roots for people with similar interests who can come together, help grow as as subculture and expand as a lifestyle,” says Ngo.
Many artists including 88-Keys, Kidz in the Hall, Mayer Hawthorne, and Food Chain have all shopped and/or got hair cuts at Family Affair.  Even Malice from the rap/hip-hop duo, The Clipse, has said of the previous location,

“[It's] one of the illest stores I’ve seen, period!” – Malice
For those familiar with lifestyle clothing, Family Affair continues to stock hard-to-find brands such as G-Shock, Kid Robot, Hellz Bellz, UNDFTD and Diamond Supply Co.  Taking it to the next level, Family Affair has become the exclusive retailler in the entire state to carry HUF, The Hundreds, and Grammy award winning artist, Pharrell Williams’ brand Billionaire Boys Club/Ice Cream.  An expanded sneaker boutique will draw in collectors as many rarities are on display. To round out the shopping experience, Family Affair has expanaded it’s hair studio with experienced stylists/barbers to give you that fresh look as you step out on the town.
If this is any indication of how far Family Affair has come since it’s inception two years ago, then just wait until the doors open at their new location, as they continue to hold it down for Denver.
