Foot Locker's Home Grown is cracking into the Latinx Heritage Month fashion flexing

It’s no secret - Foot Locker has been doing this for a long time and they sell way more than fresh sneakers on a daily basis. The iconic franchise is making sure its Home Grown brands are keeping with the times with its new collection centered on Latinx-owned brands.

Foot Locker’s Home Grown has Latinx Heritage Month on lock

There’s way too many flexes to name in one post but we’ll try our best. From Love Affair LA and Mel Depaz, these Latinx-owned brands are mastering the major fashion flex with paying huge respect to the significance of the month.

In celebration of Latinx Heritage Month, global retailer Foot Locker’s Home Grown platform is debuting new collections from Latinx-owned brands, Love Affair LA and Mel Depaz. Home Grown is Foot Locker’s platform that connects local up-and-coming brands across the nation with their communities, which in turn provides consumers with the opportunity to discover new brands.  


Love Affair LA was founded by designer William Santizo who was inspired by his love of Los Angeles and the neighborhood he was born and raised in, Echo Park, a micro community with the greatest view of downtown LA. Love Affair LA is about love, empowerment, friendship, and greatness – aspects that William wanted to share with the world. Products in the collection range from sizes XS-XXL.  

And in case you’re just now getting put onto Mel Depaz? She’s made a name for herself with signature looks and glowing with California love on her fits.
