Sustainable and second-hand children’s stores in Amsterdam

Quinnie’s

The kids in the new without paying the full price: at Quinnie's, you can find (and sell) second-hand – or preloved, as it is better called nowadays – children's clothing from brands such as Mini Rodini, Tommy Hilfiger and Petit Bateau for a reasonable price. Then settle down for fair trade coffee and a well-earned slice of lime poppy seed cake or other baked goods while the smaller customers have fun in the play corner.

Studio Noos

When Marie-Claire van der Steen couldn’t find a bag that was both fashionable and affordable for lugging around her newborn’s bottles and nappies, she made her own. Realising a wider demand, she founded Studio Noos in 2018, and her mom bags quickly became popular with the city’s trendy young mummies. Now sold in 25 countries, it was high time for the Amsterdam-born brand’s first bricks-and-mortar store, situated on a Jordaan side street. Peruse the complete range, including the best-selling mom bags and adorable teddy backpacks – and there’s a kids’ play corner.

Tip: personalise any item at the in-house embroidery atelier.
