Oh, hey there. You clicked on the “About” page.
Well, here we go.
What began as a mission to clothe our own kids—Gus, Ruby, and their friends—quickly turned into something bigger. We realized lots of Fishtown families were searching for affordable, easy-to-shop kids’ clothing. With so many great resale shops for adults nearby, we thought: why not one for kids?
From Pop-Ups to a Permanent Home
We got our start hosting outdoor pop-ups at 1219 Frankford Ave, building community and sharing seasonal finds parents love. Now, we’re renovating our brick-and-mortar space right here in Fishtown—creating a cozy, go-to spot for circular kids’ fashion.
Uniquely affordable
Our collections embrace vibrant colors and patterns, adding a touch of joy to kids’ wardrobes. From playful everyday wear to special occasion ensembles, we celebrate the individuality of every child.
Our goal is to make sustainable shopping feel easy—and actually enjoyable. By giving quality kids’ items a second (or third!) life, we help reduce waste while keeping prices parent-friendly and style very much intact.
We know kids
Has your kiddo had a growth spurt, and are you struggling to find things that fit? Have stuff they outgrew in the blink of an eye? Come shop and sell gently used children’s goods with us.
Little Clothes, Big Sustainable Style
We offer new and gently used kids’ clothing, toys, and gear for newborns through age 12. You’ll find trusted brands, fun styles, and pieces that are ready for their next adventure.
