Has anyone ever ordered clothing from Mini Boden?

I was looking at their website, and they have the CUTEST things for DS. But they are expensive, I was wondering if they are worth it? Do the clothes wash well? I'm just bored with the same old stuff from Gap, Old Navy & Children's Place. I don't really like much that they have for little boys!

Then go to Gymboree! I like it better than all those other places combined!! Hit the sales and stock up for future seasons. My daughter is only 3, but I have clothes for when she is 4 and even 5 b/c the sale deals can be THAT good!

I love Gymboree. A lot of his stuff comes from there. I was just looking for other options. Gap is cute too, but I am SO dissapointed in Old Navy and Children's Place for the fall. Oh well, it's back to Gymboree I go this weekend! Chat Icon

Re: Has anyone ever ordered clothing from Mini Boden?

Gap has gone downhill and their prices are not great for what is essentially higher-end Old Navy.

Children's Place can be a little too trampy for me at times...I have a girl and sometimes their stuff seems very Cha-Cha DiGreggorio (think Grease!)...too many ruffles, too many patterns and bright colors.

You should also try Talbots Kids for a more classic look.

BTW, try Crazy 8's! It is Gymboree's newest store in CA. They have an interesting mix of clothes and the prices are reasonable. I have to imagine the quality it as good as Gymboree. You can get it online at:

I LOVE MiniBoden!!! I've been buying from them for a couple of years. Their quality blows all the others away! So worth the price!

I just bought some boys' rugby shirts and a few hats for DD & DS.

DD was modeling some of her new goodies from Boden for me today. Chat Icon (sorry for the crappy pics...they were taken with my iPhone.)

They run pretty true to size.

I did have a problem with the pants though. I bought a pair for DD but they just didn't seem to fit correctly with a diaper. She always seemed to get "plumbers crack" when she wore them. Chat Icon The rise was just way too short.
