After more than five years at Chophouse Row, Bootyland Kids is closing the doors on its brick-and-mortar shop and inviting the community to celebrate, reflect, and say goodbye together. A goodbye party in the shop offers a chance to visit one last time, share memories, and honor a space that has meant so much to families near and far, while a weeklong sale marks the moment with all products and fixtures offered at 20–70% off through their final day. Rooted in gratitude for the customers who have supported them since their earliest days more than 30 years ago, this send-off is both a thank you and a heartfelt farewell to a beloved neighborhood fixture.
From now til through Jan 1st
40% off Inventory Sale!
