"Part boutique, part eco movement, Kinder Collective is the seaside shop redefining conscious consumerism..."

We are beyond honoured to have won the Gold Award for Best Fashion Retailer in the City Kids Magazine Green Awards 2025.

The judges shared such wonderful, thoughtful comments about our little shop by the sea, and we are so happy that our mission to make shopping sustainably a joyful and inspiring experience has resonated with some of the most stylish, clued-in and influential people in the industry.

It's a tough time to be running a small business with a big heart, but being recognised as "changemakers" and praised for "grassroots energy, authentic commitment, and brilliant blend of style and sustainability," truly brought us tears of joy.

We're so happy to see the City Kids team, led by editor Victoria Evans, celebrating a wealth of independent brands doing things differently.

Even more exciting was spotting some familiar names on the winners list too, including a Gold award for Zig + Star, whose school shoes we proudly stock and Silver for the fantastic Fille Garçon, with whom we recently popped-up at the Playground Project in Crouch End.

You can read the full write-up and judges comments and see our fellow worthy winners over on the City Kids website here.
