Miami’s Design District just gained a new style powerhouse. CNCPTS, the legendary streetwear and luxury retailer, has officially opened its first Miami location—a 10,000-square-foot, two-level shopping destination that’s as much a cultural hub as it is a store. Renowned for its bold collaborations with global brands like Nike and New Balance, CNCPTS’s Miami expansion is a statement on the growing intersection of high fashion, streetwear, and community engagement.
Founded in 1996 by Tarek Hassan in Cambridge, Massachusetts, CNCPTS has become a global pioneer in fashion, footwear, and accessories. Over nearly three decades, the brand has curated a legacy of storytelling through its products, with iconic releases such as the “Lobster” series with Nike SB and the 999 “Kennedy” with New Balance. Miami’s unique fusion of art, design, and cultural vibrancy made it a natural next step for the brand’s retail evolution.
“This city feels like a natural progression for us. Miami's creative energy, cultural diversity, and unique take on fashion perfectly align with what CNCPTS stands for. We’re happy to introduce our retail concept to this dynamic community and look forward to building meaningful connections here.”Tarek Hassan, CNCPTS founder and CEO
Located at the entrance of the Miami Design District, near NE Second Ave and NE 38th Street, the CNCPTS store spans two expansive levels. Designed by Montreal-based Di.Studio Design’s Alex Dimas, the space marries CNCPTS’s signature streetwear aesthetic with modern architectural elements, creating a refined environment.
On the first floor, visitors are welcomed by a showcase of sought-after footwear, eyewear, and accessories. Exclusive to this location, a dedicated space spotlights CNCPTS’s private label collection, offering a sense of exclusivity that’s sure to captivate Miami’s discerning clientele.
The second floor introduces a curated collection of women’s designer apparel, footwear, and accessories. The layout invites exploration, with brands like Marni, GANNI, Maison Margiela, and Proenza Schouler on display. Exclusive to the Miami location are coveted labels like Coperni, Devon Windsor, and the locally loved Carnan. These brands reflect CNCPTS’s commitment to both global fashion leadership and local community relevance.
“Miami has an energy unlike any other city, and we’ve designed this space to reflect that. Every detail of the store—from the product curation to the design elements—was chosen to resonate with the spirit of the city, while staying true to the storytelling and style that CNCPTS is known for.”Deon Point, CNCPTS Creative Director
Stepping inside the CNCPTS Miami store feels like entering a living art installation. Industrial design elements like raw concrete juxtapose polished marble finishes, and lush greenery adds a fresh vibrancy to the space. Custom furnishings and interactive displays guide shoppers through an immersive retail experience.
Designed with intention, each zone is tailored to enhance the shopping journey—from discovery to purchase. The duality of raw and refined materials reflects the eclectic spirit of Miami’s Design District and CNCPTS’s streetwear ethos. To top it off, the store’s outdoor courtyard offers a chic venue for private events, further cementing its role as a community gathering space.
As the fashion world’s spotlight increasingly shifts toward experiential retail, CNCPTS’s expansion into Miami’s Design District feels timely. The neighborhood’s evolution into a global destination for art, design, and luxury retail has drawn major players like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Balenciaga—and now CNCPTS.
Tarek Hassan’s vision to bring CNCPTS to Miami wasn’t merely a business move—it was a cultural alignment. The city’s energy and openness to creativity provided fertile ground for CNCPTS to debut its most ambitious store to date. From its exclusive brand collaborations to its Miami-only collections, CNCPTS’s new space underscores its role as both a retailer and a community curator.
The CNCPTS Miami store isn’t just a place to shop—it’s a living canvas for storytelling. Shoppers can expect a dynamic rotation of events, exclusive product drops, and collaborative activations. With the outdoor courtyard as a backdrop for private events, the store’s potential for brand-hosted pop-ups and cultural moments is limitless.
The CNCPTS Miami store is now open daily from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. It’s conveniently located at the entrance of the Miami Design District, next to the Palm Court parking garage. Shoppers and design enthusiasts alike are invited to visit this one-of-a-kind space or follow @CNCPTS on social media for the latest updates and exclusive releases.
