YouTube stars the Sidemen are opening their first ever retail store. The group of seven, which includes rapper-and-boxer KSI, announced they’ll be bringing their clothing brand to Bluewater shopping centre in Kent, England, this summer.
The Sidemen channel was created back in October 2013 by seven best friends and has since gained a following of 18.5 million subscribers. Having originally started out as a gaming channel, it’s branched out to include other content.
Since January 2018, they have uploaded weekly videos to their group channel under the banner of ‘Sidemen Sunday’.
