Discover more about FatFace
A Brand Born from Alpine Adventure
FatFace emerged in 1988 when two British entrepreneurs printed sweatshirts and sold them from a camper van in the French Alps, funding their lifestyle through direct sales. What began as a grassroots venture has evolved into a substantial retail presence with over 200 stores across the UK and Ireland. The brand's DNA remains rooted in that spirit of adventure and outdoor living, reflected in every collection designed at their Hampshire headquarters. The philosophy extends beyond clothing—it's an attitude toward life that celebrates optimism, social connection, and embracing experiences beyond the conventional 9-to-5 routine.Design Philosophy and Product Range
The Belfast store showcases FatFace's comprehensive offering across menswear, womenswear, and children's clothing. All designs are created in-house, ensuring a distinctive aesthetic that balances contemporary trends with timeless casual wear. The collection emphasizes quality construction and thoughtful design, featuring everything from everyday essentials to seasonal statement pieces. Knitwear holds particular prominence, especially during winter months, alongside footwear and accessories that complete the outdoor-inspired lifestyle narrative. The store maintains a commitment to offering pieces that transition seamlessly from urban settings to outdoor adventures.Victoria Square Location and Accessibility

Throughout the year, FatFace rotates collections to reflect seasonal needs and lifestyle moments. Winter brings emphasis on knitwear, layering pieces, and outerwear designed for British weather. Summer collections pivot toward lighter fabrics and outdoor-ready pieces. The store regularly features promotional periods, including seasonal sales and special events. Extended opening hours during peak shopping periods accommodate increased visitor demand, particularly during the pre-Christmas season and major retail events. This dynamic approach ensures the store remains relevant and engaging across all seasons.Sustainability and Brand Values
