Buy affordable children’s clothing online; tips and websites

You can buy nice, trendy children’s clothing easily and cheaply online. A number of big names such as H&M, Wehkamp, V&D and Zalando offer clothing from various (well-known) brands. If you want to buy children’s clothing cheaply, it is a good idea to buy outlet clothing or score with various promotions or during the Sale period. In addition to the big names, there are dozens of nice, smaller web shops on the internet where you can shop for cheap, affordable children’s clothing.

Outlet and Sale?!

Real bargain hunters search the internet for so-called ‘outlet clothing’ or sale clothing. Outlet clothing includes all clothing that is from a previous season or last year. Every season (usually summer and winter clothing) well-known children’s clothing brands release a new clothing line. Unsold clothing can be sold the following year at discount prices. For example, a winter coat from the 2012 season can be 70% cheaper in 2013 because the manufacturer or store wants to ‘get rid of’ it. For outlet clothing, certain items of clothing usually only sell at outlet prices a season or year later. A disadvantage of outlet shopping may be that some sizes of a particular item of clothing are no longer available. During a Sale period there is usually even more choice in clothing sizes. On some websites you can shop for clothes at Sale prices all year round, but the biggest Sale rounds for children’s clothing take place at the end of the summer season (August, September) and winter season (February, March).

Other clothing

Branded clothing can be quite pricey. Fortunately, there is sufficient, fun and, above all, affordable clothing available online on various websites. Some department stores have their own children’s clothing line. Think of the affordable brand Frendz from V&D, or clothing from H&M. Other brands that are affordable online: BonPrix, Cars, C&A, We, Name It, Ter Stal, Hema and Kiabi. Of course it is also possible to shop for second-hand clothing online.

Boys clothes

Other clothing

Just like with girls’ clothing, the major department stores such as V&D, H&M and Hema also sell their children’s clothing online. There is quite a lot of clothing for boys available online that is quite affordable. A tip is to look around some smaller web shops for affordable, discounted boys’ clothing. Some online shops buy residual stock of (brand) clothing and resell it for little money. Among all those items of clothing you can find many nice blouses, t-shirts, sweaters and jeans for hip boys.
