Nestled into the 700 block of Main St, you will need to find street parking to visit here. Oxford Pennant bills themselves as a designer and manufacturer of wool felt pennants, flags and banners, all of their products are Made in America and they use USA made cotton & wool.
The flagship store is a great space, I highly recommend coming here to not only support a local business but to also get unique or Buffalo based gifts.
Possibly due to the nature of the American made items and/or the American made textiles items here do come with a higher price point however I think that can be expected when you are buying high quality products. Additionally items are for sale both here and their website.
I arrived right at opening and was delighted to see how colorful the store is and the variety of items available. More than pennants they sell pins, patches, t-shirts, gift items like flower seeds, fragrance diffusers and wooden toys; great things for all ages!
My reason for coming was based upon seeing their Pride Pop-up during the 2019 Pride Festival at Canalside. Although I did not make to the pop-up after emailing them they advised the Pride items would be available after the festival. I had my eye on a pride (rainbow) pennant patch and the City of Buffalo flag but with the colors of the rainbow where the normal white would be (posted behind the cash wrap in my pic). Additionally I ended up getting a Buffalo pennant pin for an upcoming friend's birthday.
During my visit two employees on hand and both were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. One of them stated she was the head seamstress and gave a tip on sewing on a patch, the other had actually come in to shop for gift but equally friendly on his day off. read more
