In 2003, Studio introduced discounted clothing and footwear to its product range. These include top brand names such as Fila, Adidas, Ellesse, Reebok, Kangol, Ben Sherman and Kickers to name but a few!

The Christmas period continues to be an important time for Studio, with a large proportion of customers' demand being seen over the second half of the year, when the call for the substantial range of Christmas related product is particularly high. However, the product offer has developed significantly over recent years, and has now been expanded substantially to offer an ever-increasing range of items all year round.
