Celebrating 20 colorful years
Take a trip down memorylane with us as we celebrate the milestones that have led us to where we are today. From a small office filled with boxes in a basement in Copenhagen to an international kidswear brand with the most amazing customers worldwide.Sure, we might not be able to pass for a teenager anymore, but we're still young at heart, with our sight firmly set on making kids of all ages look and feel their very best. So let's grab a slice of cake (or two!) and raise a glass to the awesome journey that has brought us to this point.
