Our Eco-Friendly Mission

The beating heart of OSA is of course our one and only shop based in the Royal Arcade in Cardiff, UK.

it is of course only recently become our new home but it already feels like our forever home. here you will see all of our products on display to pick and choose from. equipped with fitting rooms you can make sure the fit is just right for you. it is also the host of our event nights where the shop is transformed into "The Hooded Dolphin" which is every few weeks. here you will find a great crowd where everyone is invited to have a drink, some food and laugh all supported by live music either from a band or DJ. these are not to be missed!

as you enter the shop you are then met with a shop that is much more refined that our previous. a bright grey marble floor sat underneath seamless timber units with hidden drawers around the edge of the shop walls beholding all of the items of clothing on simple, shiny scaffolding rails. the purpose here is to give a constant flow of garments to choose from as your eyes gaze around the store but maintain a un-busy, minimal and attractive look which not only displays way more items than you think but puts a lot of items on show while maintaining a wide open floor space. this ties in with a centre table displaying some key osa items in the middle to divide and revolve the room.

on the right of the downstairs you will also see a bookshelf that was created to enhance the chimney breast we were blessed with. we decided to put our book shelf here as it makes it feel like the continuity of the space flows and makes the most of the space. as this then flows to a knee height bench showcasing all the LuckyFoot Leather products and then ends with the till in the back right. mainly to keep us out of the way of you guys so we don't disturb you browsing. but the constant timber throughout the shop floor makes everything feel smoother and cleaner, everything sits in a natural and spacious position.

as you head upstairs you're met with a stealthy black staircase. this is to follow the colour scheme of the store by matching the exterior black & white. it also is bold enough to direct the attention to peoples eyes that there is an upstairs, rather it being lost in white stairs. the same shop design is then carried upstairs with a fitting room in one corner. we decided against a centre table upstairs as we felt this would crowd the room too much, so have used the corners of all the units to present products.

at a closer look you will notice all the units are fitted with handmade drawers to store our stock, industrial scaffolding holds all the items so must be ridged and long enough to do so. the walls have nothing on them bar the 8 surfboards riding the walls on the high-rise ceiling to create an atmosphere of what we're about in the 'void'. there are a few plants around the shop floor but other than that the minimal, entirely refined and hand crafted OSA shop is staying this way. everything that was learnt from the last shop has all the best bits here. it may look different but you have to agree, it looks better. come and say hello and have a look for yourself! we can't wait to see you.
