A flying visit to Germany – and some great new products
Well we finally made it out to Friedrichshafen: to Europe’s largest outdoor equipment and clothing trade show this month. And what a show….It’s huge, with 8 NEC sized halls full of the latest outdoor gear and clothing. We spent two full days up and down the aisles of the show, looking for fantastic kid’s clothing and equipment as well as those unique products that you just can’t find anywhere! The heat was unbearable and we felt as though we’d climbed a couple of munros by the end, but it was a hugely succesful trip.
We’ve since spent the last two weeks talking to suppliers and organising delivery of some fantastic new product for both this year and next: We’ve got a whole new range of sandals coming as well as some terrific kids bike clothing. We’ll have the brilliant kids’ Camelbak hydration products (that’s bottles, bladders and rucksacks) and some new child carriers. We’ve also got a real scoop on a couple of exciting new activities specifically for kids that’ll be brilliant year-round fun outdoors…but we’re keeping those under our hat for the next 2 weeks!
There’s a whole load of new products coming from our existing suppliers with new colours, exciting fabrics and some great ideas, so watch this space in the next couple of weeks!
