Foot Locker Set to Relocate and Expand at Crossgates
— Global footwear retailer expanding to a 10,153 sq. ft. multi-concept space featuring House of Hoops and Kids Foot Locker —
Guilderland, NY: Crossgates is excited to announce that Foot Locker will be relocating and expanding its presence within the shopping center to deliver an enhanced, multi-concept retail experience next year. The premier global footwear and apparel retailer will transition from its current 7,516 sq. ft. store near JCPenney to a new 10,153 sq. ft. store on the lower level near Dave & Buster’s early next year.
Foot Locker’s new storefront will bring a premium, elevated shopping experience to the Capital Region. The store will fully integrate Foot Locker’s exclusive House of Hoops basketball concept with a dedicated Kids Foot Locker section, creating a seamless, one-stop destination for athletes, sneakerheads, and families alike.
“Foot Locker’s expanded presence underscores its strong commitment to Crossgates and the Capital Region,” said Jen Smith, General Manager at Crossgates. “This significant investment reinforces Crossgates’ position as a leading retail destination. We look forward to welcoming guests to an enhanced, multi-concept experience that brings the best of sneaker culture and athletic apparel together under one roof.”
This expansion demonstrates Foot Locker’s dedication to its regional customer base by providing a wider product selection, more exclusive releases, and an immersive retail environment.
Construction on the new space is currently underway. The store is expected to officially reopen in its newly expanded location early next year. Until then Foot Locker will remain open in their current location on the lower level near JCPenney.
