Sustainable Kids Clothing Brands + Stores

There’s something about being pregnant and having kids and realizing how many more things you have to care about. In everything that we do at home and do with and for our little guy, we’re imperfect, but we’re trying. Finding sustainable kids clothing and stores has made it all a bit easier, however!

In almost every aspect, we’re trying not to buy any more than we need, which is so much harder than you’d expect with kids (especially when gifts are involved). While C may be growing faster than we think possible, he’s luckily hit stages where his clothes fit him for a good long while. So we order a little big and ride each piece out as long as we can!

Sustainable Kids Clothing Brands

Mien Studios

A friend of mine in LA introduced me to Mien Studies. I even interviewed the founder Lisa on starting a sustainable fashion brand. Her line includes pieces for moms, moms-to-be, and kiddos alike!

The materials are all GOTS certified organic and made in the US. The mustard romper we love to put C in is from Mien Studios! Rompers are available in three sizes (1T to 5T).

Simple Folk

Simple Folk sells organic, ethical clothes with a whimsical style to the brand. They have classic silhouettes for just about every need and a lot of earth tones, which we love!

They make clothes in small batches and their line is  GOTS® and OEKO-TEX® certified!

Colored Organics

Colored Organics sells organic cotton pieces with an emphasis on ethical production. They have basics from onesies, tee, pullover sweatshirts, and leggings!

Colored Organics offers clothing from newborn up to 12 (though many items are only available up to 6 and 8). If you sign up for their mailing list, you’ll get 20% off your first order.

free birdees

Free Birdees sells sustainable kids clothing made from bamboo viscose. The store primarily sells baby onesies and matching pjs sets (up to 10Y in size) in a wide range of patterns and colors (not many solids for older pjs sets). And they have some fun crib and toddler sheets as well as blankets. 

primary.com

Primary sells basics in every shape and size and in ever color and pattern you want! Not everything on their site is organic, but all of these basics are made with OEKO-TEX. It’s a great place to get anything basic from pjs with feet to onesies, tees, dresses, and sweatshirts.

H&M Conscious

One of the other discoveries of mine is that H&M has a great selection of kids clothing and they even have a subsection of H&M Conscious kids clothes. Much of these items are made with organic cotton (look for other materials used if necessary). They have a whole range of basics in all kinds of colors, even lovely neutrals and earth tones.

I feel many of the H&M clothes for children run slim (but not entirely). There are usually many, many reviews for each product, so check those out for sizing help!

Sustainable Kids Stores

Pehr

Pehr is a store I learned about for their adorable mobiles to hang above cribs. Then I learned about all their kids room decor, toys, and organic clothing (only up to 18 months). All their bedding and apparel is made from organic cotton and they try to eliminate all single-use packaging!

Shop Bitte

Shop Bitte is actually a local store here in Sacramento that I stumbled upon on Instagram before we ever moved. They offer toys, books, clothing, decor, and just about everything you need for kid life. They offer sustainable items for kiddos that are meant to last (probably much longer than just one kiddo will need them)!

Scandiborn

Scandiborn is my go-to for C’s toys as they have a great selection of wood, rubber, and natural items for all the basics. We’ve gotten his ball, letter blocks, and a loop-the-loop (like they have at doctor’s offices but much smaller). We adore each piece.

In addition to a great selection of toys, they also offer quite a bit of nursery decor. It’s the perfect place to get ready for a little one, update your kiddo’s space as they grow, and to find the perfect gift!
