After roughly four years, a local clothing shop has said goodbye to Overland Park.
Locally owned We Got Your Back, known for its Kansas City-themed apparel and goods, has closed its downtown Overland Park storefront. The store closed its doors on Christmas Eve.
We Got Your Back was at 7940 Santa Fe Drive
- The boutique occupied a space just off 80th Street and Santa Fe Drive in downtown Overland Park.
- There, it operated near The Culinary Center Of Kansas City and Sacks on Santa Fe.
- Before We Got Your Back opened in that space, it was previously occupied by Razzleberry, a now-closed boutique that left the space to move to the Country Club Plaza in Kansas City, Missouri.
We Got Your Back offered Kansas City-themed apparel
- Owners Reid Jolly and Rob Arnold initially opened We Got Your Back eight years ago at the Lenexa Public Market, before moving the business to downtown Overland Park.
- The shop offered a variety of clothing made by Jolly and Arnold, along with goods from other Kansas City-area makers.
- In a social media post, Arnold cited a number of challenges that ultimately led to the store’s closure — particularly in the last year and a half.
- “I poured everything I possibly could to make it work, but it’s just not sustainable,” he said in the post.
With a closure comes new arrivals
- Preceding the closure of We Got Your Back, downtown Overland Park saw several new additions in fall 2025, such as clothing store Encore and formal dress shop Bella Bridesmaids.
- Party and event rental showroom Social Shop KC also opened a new space in downtown Overland Park in fall 2025.
- Buffalo State Pizza also moved a bit further south on Santa Fe Drive to a new space, one that was initially a Ford dealership and gas station.
