A LEADING fashion streetwear and sportswear retailer is set to open at Redditch's Kingfisher Shopping Centre, creating about 20 jobs.

Footasylum, which stocks leading sportswear giants Nike and Adidas, contemporary classics like Vans, Converse and Puma, as well as exclusive brands such as Glorious Gangsta and Kings Will Dream, is set to open in October.

The new 230 square meter unit will be located adjacent to Jack & Jones and Eds Diner

Glen Dickinson, head of retail at Footasylum said: "This will be our 12th in the Midlands and we’re looking forward to moving to The Kingfisher Centre at an exciting time ahead of a wave of new Footasylum store openings across the UK.

"Our new, well located unit will give Redditch shoppers access to leading sportswear and streetwear brands – many of which have not been available in the town before."
