What should you stock?
No parent is going to want their child to be cold this winter so they’ll be looking for thicker socks, hates, gloves and scarves to keep them warm, whether they’re walking to or from school, or playing outside at playtime.
Young children do tend to lose items on a regular basis, so parents won’t want to be spending a great deal on kitting their children out for school, so affordability is key. However, for weekend wear, parents may be willing to pay more for premium items.
Top picks for kids – All of our gloves are one size fit all, which means that you won’t have leftover stock in different sizes come spring. Unisex gloves in black with neon stripes are a must-buy because they have wide appeal, and you can’t go wrong with gloves in classic black because they’ll compliment any school uniform.
Gloves in dark pastel colours are popular with girls and you shouldn’t forget to stock some scarves too.
Top picks for teens - Your hat range should include some hats with a double layer for when it snows. They’re in classic black, so suit both girls and boys. Thermal wear is also a good idea, especially for boys who play football or rugby, or cycle to school. Thick socks will be a bestseller this winter, so ensure your range includes thick socks that are suitable for school.
