Never mind autumn; with dark mornings, temperatures drastically falling, and storms charging through the country, it definitely feels as though winter has arrived. Perhaps you’re still clinging on to the remnants of summer, donning your shorts with flip-flops and sliders – but if so, you’re much braver than we are! Here at OD’s, we think it’s about time to embrace the chilly season ahead and we’re switching out summer footwear for something a little warmer and a little more practical. The toe-post sandals are officially getting thrown to the back of the wardrobe (or at least confined to use at home) and we’re bringing out the autumn-winter ’18 collection of designer footwear.

As part of our designer footwear department, new styles are currently up for grabs by a host of internationally acclaimed designers, and here we take a look at some of the top picks for men, women, and children. Have a read, browse the full range online, and put your best foot forward into the new season with a weather-appropriate but high-end pair of designer shoes.

Mens Designer Trainers – Don the Sports-Luxe

When it comes to the cold winter months, mens designer footwear is all about the sports-luxe trainer. A number of key brands have emerged over the last couple of years – offering a range of laid-back trainers that are luxurious, high-end, and city street cool – and as a result, it has become one of the biggest trends of late. Team your casual everyday ensemble with a pair of statement sneakers and, we guarantee, it will create an instantly trendy yet practical autumn-winter look.

Android Homme and Tommy Mallet are two of the main contenders in the world of sports-luxe and, for AW18, their highly coveted collections are available here at OD’s – and we simply can’t get enough! One of our favourite styles of the season has to be the Mens Android Homme Propulsion Mid Nubuck Trainers. These casual mid-tops come in a black colourway and, thanks to their custom-made midsole and cushioned footbed, they are certainly appropriate for all-day everyday use. They also feature the brand’s signature logo and golden eyelets and are just what you need to create an understated yet iconic designer look. The Mens Android Homme Malibu Runners are another great option, with their subtle nod to this year’s camouflage trend, and we absolutely love the Mens Mallet Archway Trainers. Effortlessly stylish, comfortable, and practical enough for the harsh winter weather. Don a pair of mens designer trainers this season and you literally can’t go wrong.

Womens Designer Footwear – Get Booted Up

For the style-conscious ladies who want to keep their tootsies warm this season, heeled boots are the way to go. In fact, heeled sock boots are the way to go! We’re talking about the 90s style second-skin variety, typically crafted from soft – but not-so-waterproof – luxury suede or stretchy ankle-hugging fabric. This is a style that celebrities have been wearing for a couple of seasons now and it has finally made its way into our range of women’s designer footwear. Admittedly, they’re not ideal for when the rain starts to pour and you’re hopping around knee-deep puddles; but for those crisp mornings, when you need to look your best, we think they fit the bill nicely.

Here at OD’s, we are absolutely in love with the Womens Tommy Jeans Sock Heeled Boots. Coming in a traditional black colourway, these day-to-day boots boast a pull-on stretchy design and are finished with a chunky patent heel and a wrap-around flag to the ankle. They are the epitome of high-end fashion, incredibly on-trend for this season, and they work perfectly with a classic jumper dress and tights. Ted Baker is another designer label to embrace the sock boot trend, offering up the Womens Qatena Boots in Charcoal Grey and Black. However, if you’d rather play things safe and prepare for the unpredictable UK weather, you can always rely on those designer footwear classics – such as a pair of UGG Boots or Hunter Wellies – to save the day.

Kids Designer Shoes – Keep Things Casual

All parents would agree, it’s important to invest in a pair of kid’s designer shoes that are comfy, durable, and guaranteed to get their stylish seal of approval – and for AW18, we reckon the best solution is to just keep things casual. Opt for a pair of classic sporty trainers and, whatever your plans for the weekend, they can be thrown on with a pair of jeans, a hoody, and a puffer jacket and your little one will be ready to head outside and tackle the treacherous weather in style.

Most of the junior designer labels currently available at OD’s offer a selection of kid’s designer trainers; however, for this season, Lanvin is definitely the one to watch. This is a brand renowned for its thoughtful balance of practicality and fashion and their everyday sneakers certainly don’t disappoint. Take for example the Boys Lanvin Leather Trainers. Crafted from 100% leather, with a ridged rubber sole and contrast laces, they are comfy enough for little weekend adventures and stylish enough for the young and fussy. Little girls can also don casual designer footwear with the Girls Moschino Trainers, available in White or Black.  These day-to-day low-tops are girly yet iconic and, we guarantee, they will be pulled out of the wardrobe time and time again over the winter.

We’re sorry to break it to you, but summer is officially over and – socks or no socks – it’s no longer acceptable to be hitting the streets in a pair of designer slides…well, not until next year, at least! It’s time to prepare for the autumn and winter months that lie ahead and update your designer footwear line-up with shoes that are weather-resistant, comfy, but still incredibly on trend. So, do yourself a favour; put the sandals back in the wardrobe, head over to our designer footwear department for men, women, and children, and invest in a pair of winter-appropriate shoes today.

OD’s has recently been graced with the latest collection by Kids Kenzo and, as a designer label that continually releases new statement prints and fresh designs, we thought it was a good idea to throw it back into the spotlight and see what this season’s range has to offer. Straight away it’s easy to see that creative directors, Humberto Leon and Carol Lim, have worked their street-cred magic once more – taking the brand’s vibrant and quirky spirit and giving it a cool and contemporary tweak. The AW18 Kids Kenzo Collection is bursting at the seams with the brand’s trademark tiger motif and, this year, you can expect a combination of both the traditional bold colour palette and slightly more muted pastel tones. Three new themes have been introduced, including cosmic, frozen, and fantastic jungle; however, the emphasis is on comfortable classics with a distinctive designer touch and everyday staples that surely deserve a place in your little one’s wardrobe.

Here we take a look at some of our top picks from this season’s coveted collection and highlight four easy ways for your mini-fashionista to don Kenzo Junior over the upcoming autumn and winter months.

No. 1: The Iconic Kids Kenzo Jumper

Although initially designed to be worn by Leon and Lim on the catwalk, the Kenzo Tiger Sweatshirt has become one of the brand’s most iconic and popular designs. In fact, it is now an international bestseller, worn by everyone from A-list celebrities to style-conscious parents and their newborn. It’s only right that such an iconic style features in the new collection and, for AW18, there are new statements styles for children of all ages. Take for example the Boys Kenzo Cosmic Tiger Sweatshirt. Embracing this season’s cosmic theme, it comes in a charcoal black colourway and features both the multi-coloured tiger motif and a number of unique and abstract globe prints to the front. Girls can also get a piece of the action with this grey-marl number and we’re sure tiny tots will appreciate the Baby Boys and Baby Girls Kenzo Tiger Sweatshirt – coming in pale blue and pastel pink, respectively. These jumpers are warm, cosy, and incredibly iconic and, in our option, they are one of the easiest (and most practical!) ways to don Kids Kenzo over the chilly months ahead.

No. 2: A Branded Kenzo Kids T-Shirt

If a piece of clothing by Kenzo doesn’t feature the signature tiger motif, it will more than likely feature the brand’s equally iconic logo and – it’s fair to say – it crops up quite a lot in this season’s collection. Short-sleeved tees come in subtle colourways and, with the logo printed simply across the front of the design, they offer an incredibly easy and understated way to wear this designer brand. Here at OD’s, we particularly like the Girls Kenzo White Logo T-Shirt, with its relaxed longer-length fit and gold metallic branding. Simply style it up with a pair of leggings and a puffer jacket and create a high-end winter look for your mini fashionista. Boys also have a selection of Kenzo Kids T-Shirts to choose from, including this simple white exemplar. Add it to his casual weekend collection and, we guarantee, it will be pulled out of the wardrobe time and time again.

No. 3: Signature Kids Kenzo Tights

Admittedly, this is one for the little girls, but we couldn’t resist pointing out the range of luxurious day-to-day tights that Kids Kenzo have released for AW18. These come in a variety of different colourways; however, we absolutely ♥ them in fuchsia pink. They are bright, eye-catching, and truly reflect the vibrant nature of the brand and we reckon they’ll go down a treat with pink-obsessed girly-girls. They are also constructed from luxuriously soft cotton fabric, with a stretchy elasticated waist, thus making them an ideal option for everyday use. Ensure they are the focal point of an outfit and team with a simple denim dress and chelsea boots to complete the colourful look.

No. 4: Casual Kids Kenzo Joggers

A kid’s winter wardrobe isn’t complete without a pair of casual joggers and, thanks to the Kenzo Junior AW18 Collection, it’s easier than ever to tick them off the checklist. Styles are available for both boys and girls of all ages, starting from teeny tots to fussy teens, and this season they come in a range of subtle colourways. Take for example the Boys Grey Kenzo Logo Trousers. Up for grabs in a light grey marl, they feature a white rubberised logo to the bottom left leg and are an incredibly comfy way to don the designer brand. Simply combine with the matching Boys Kenzo Grey Logo Hoody and a short-sleeved tee and get him ready for those lazy winter weekends at home.

Since Leon and Lim took over the reigns in 2011, Kids Kenzo has become known as the master of motifs and bold eye-catching designs – and we’re glad to say, the AW18 collection certainly lives up to expectations! It includes everything your little one could possibly need for the autumn and winter months ahead and, with a range of everyday staples to choose from, there are countless ways for them to don this iconic designer brand (whatever their personal style or preferences…). So why not take a look online today? Browse the full Kenzo Junior Collection and invest in a few key pieces. We guarantee, this is the type of designer label that your trend-conscious little one will approve of!

Camouflage is one of the greatest ironies of the fashion industry. Ultimately, this is a print designed to help military personnel blend into their surroundings. It is intended to help soldiers stay unseen, incognito, hidden from the enemy; and yet, outside of the trenches, it’s one of the most conspicuous and attention-grabbing patterns you can get. Camo has been a trend on-and-off ever since we can remember and it’s making a comeback for autumn-winter 2018. Designer labels are weaving this acquired print into their new collections, offering a range of statement camo pieces and everyday camouflage clothing  – guaranteed to make you stand out, rather than blend into, the crowd.

When it comes to donning this distinctive print, it’s important to make it the focal point of your outfit. Camouflage clothing is busy enough without adding in a range of other prints, logos, and clashing colours. The trick is to keep things simple. Simply style one item of camo clothing with an otherwise understated ensemble and you’re on the right track. Here we take a look at some of the key camouflage pieces that have recently hit our store – including styles by some of our most popular designer labels – and we offer top tips on how to nail this not-so-discreet trend.

The Classic Camo T-Shirt

A simple camouflage t-shirt is the easiest way to get to grips with this eye-catching and perennial pattern. Dependent on how “under-cover” you want to go, you can either opt for a short-sleeved tee with an all-over camo print – such as the Mens Camo The North Face Red Box T-Shirt – or something a little more understated, perhaps with camouflage detailing running throughout. Here at OD’s, we particularly like the Mens True Religion 3D Camo T-Shirt. This everyday tee comes in a classic white colourway and, with a camo print logo to the front, it is a subtle nod to the bold trend. Soothe camo’s attention-grabbing nature and style this t-shirt with a pair of straight-cut or skinny black jeans (never blue!) and a pair of comfy trainers.

Camouflage Hoodies

A hoody is a staple item in any man’s autumn-winter wardrobe and, as one of the biggest and boldest trends of the season, it seems only right that it has been given a camo-inspired make-over. Take for example the Mens The North Face Raglan Red Box Hooded Sweatshirt. This is a classic design by one of our most popular designer labels and, for AW18, it has returned to our store with an all-over khaki camouflage print. Finished with a large TNF logo to the reverse and cut from luxuriously soft cotton fabric, it offers the perfect balance of high-end style and everyday comfort and it is the type of camouflage clothing that will see you through the autumn-winter months. Simply combine with a pair of black jeans or joggers to complete the on-trend look.

A Pair of Camo Trainers

If you don’t like to draw attention and you’d rather avoid looking like an army-combat action man, a pair of camouflage trainers may be the best option for you. They offer a small and subtle dose of this high-end trend and can be easily thrown on with your classic everyday ensemble – so long as you stick to darker tones! Here at OD’s, we recommend bagging the Mens Propulsion Mid Camo Velvet Trainers by Android Homme. Android Homme is a designer label renowned for its incredibly on-trend luxury trainers and, once again, they have hit the mark perfectly with these camo-themed mid-tops. Dress head-to-toe in black and let them become the focal point of your day-to-day outfit.

Camo Accessories

For the closet camo admirers out there, a camouflage accessory is another easy way to try out the print, without committing to it fully – and the best thing is, they can be styled with just about every outfit! It doesn’t matter if you opt for a cross-body bag, a cap, or a bandana-style headband. Add a camouflage accessory to your ensemble, for work or play, and you’re telling the world that you know the latest trends and can rock them with minimal fuss. Ladies, we’re sure you’ll appreciate the beauty of this Womens Love Moschino Shoulder Bag, with its bold brand logo, silver hardware and all-over camo print. Simple style with your LBD and block heel sandals for a night out with the girls. And for men with a trendy yet understated sense of style, we recommend the Mens Borealis Classic Backpack by The North Face. It offers the perfect mix of comfort and practicality and, thanks to its unusual white camo print, it will add that all-important trendy touch to your everyday look.  

Shop our Statement Camouflage Clothing Today

Whilst camouflage clothing has never really gone away, for AW18, it has been given a high-fashion update and it has become one of the most popular prints of the season. Sure, it was initially designed to let members of the military stay incognito – but wear a camo print t-shirt or accessory on the city streets and, we guarantee, you’ll be setting the trend and standing out the from crowd. A number of our most popular designer labels have recently added camo-print statement pieces to their collection. So why not take a look through our full online collection of designer clothing for men and women and be brave enough to don this under-cover print.

We don’t like to brag too much; however, this week, we managed to bag a highly prestigious national award for our children’s designer store and we’re incredibly proud of what we have achieved. OD’s has been named the Kidswear Independent Retailer of the Year at the Drapers Independent Awards 2018 and we’re going to tell everyone who cares to listen. Our team have worked tirelessly over the last year, investing precious time and effort into our brand, the launch of our new website and the success of our kidswear store. The fact that we were nominated for this award was a great honour in itself, but to actually win it… that is the absolute cherry on the cake!

Drapers Independent Awards 2018

The Drapers Independent Awards is an esteemed annual event, attracting the very best in the fashion retail industry, and this year it was held at The Brewery in London. Outstanding independent retailers, designer brands and key suppliers from up and down the country came together in one place to celebrate their success and we felt incredibly privileged to be a part of the crowd.

New for 2018, the Kidswear Independent of the Year Award is aimed at celebrating a retailer with a strong edit of children’s designer brands and judges were looking for evidence of a complimentary online and in-store environment, a strong business strategy and exceptional customer service. Of course, this is a national award intended to recognise the very best in the industry and the competition was incredibly fierce. To walk away a winner is an absolute testament to our passion and commitment and proof that our continuous hard work over has paid off.

So How Did it All Begin?

OD’s Designer Clothing was originally founded in 1992 and, it’s fair to say, we hit the ground running with a fantastic range of designer clothing for men and women. The business went from strength to strength and, soon enough, the demand for a children’s designer clothing department became apparent. Several junior clothing lines were first introduced to our store in 2010 and then, in 2016, we decided to expand further – purchasing four terraced houses across the road and converting them into a modern stand-alone shop, dedicated solely to children’s designer fashion.

Our kidswear designer store is now one of the largest in the UK and – despite fierce, nearby competition – we have consistently managed to thrive in an already crowded market. We have employed several new members of staff, we offer an incredible range of children’s designer brands and “mini-me” styles, and we have recently branched out to include sizes for children aged 0-4. However, crucially, our target customers have remained the same; they are the same people who walked through our doors way back in 1992 and have continued to stay loyal to us ever since.

Thank You for Your Support

2018 has been a fantastic year for us here at OD’s; not only have we improved our online presence and significantly strengthened our brand, but our stores have continued to grow and we are incredibly proud to be given this prestigious award. Yes, we’re ambitious and hardworking, but customers are always at the heart of everything we do. They are ultimately the key to our success and we’d like to say thank you, once again, for all of their continued support. Join us in celebrating this massive achievement and why not head over to our award-winning kidswear designer department today? We must be doing something right, after all, and it’s definitely worth a look…  

Freshers Week ’18 is just around the corner and new students are gearing up for what will, probably, be the best year of their lives so far. But, let’s face it, leaving home for uni can be a pretty daunting time. The bedroom you’ve slept in for the last eighteen years is gradually being packed away, your mum gets emotional every time she looks in your direction, and there are so many different things to think about. Will I get on with my new housemates? Have I chosen the right course? How do I cook a meal…? Trust us, the first week at uni can be crazy and the last thing you need to be worrying about is what to wear. It makes sense to prep your wardrobe in advance – and luckily for you, we’ve come up with a stylish edit of designer clothing to get you through those first few days.

Moving in Day

The big day has arrived; your dad has fine-tuned the satnav, you’re squashed in the back of the car with a mountain of cardboard boxes, and you’re ready for moving into student digs. When it comes to choosing an outfit, it’s important to get the right balance between style and comfort. Chances are, you’re going to be lugging heavy stuff up several flights of stairs, but you also want to make that killer first impression. There’s no excuse for turning up in your old gym gear on this occasion!

Here at OD’s, we reckon that ladies should rock up wearing the Womens Tommy Jeans Leggings. They are soft, stretchy, with just the right amount of high-end style, and they can be easily paired with trainers and the Womens Tommy Jeans Flag T-Shirt to complete the look. Guys should take a similarly casual approach to the big day, perhaps teaming these Mens True Religion Horseshoe Shorts with the matching Mens Metal Horseshoe T-Shirt. Simply throw on these designer clothes with a pair of white trainers and you’re ready to meet your new housemates in style.

Lounging in the Digs

Students have earned a reputation for sleeping in till the late afternoon and lounging about in the common room in their comfy threads – beer in hand, watching the game. We don’t see anything wrong with that (truth be told, we’re green with envy!), but just be sure that when you’re dossing in student digs, you do it in style and get comfy in your high-end designer clothing. The Womens Calvin Klein Track Pants and Hoody is the perfect option for ladies and we reckon that lads should settle down in the Mens Love Moschino Track Pants and matching Mens Love Moschino Track Sweatshirt. Both are crafted from luxuriously soft cotton fabric and, when you’re too broke to put on the heating, they’ll keep you feeling warm and cosy throughout the autumn and winter months.

For the brave souls choosing to stay in uni halls, with those dreaded communal showers and questionable carpets, it’s also worth investing in a pair of designer flip-flops or sliders. Girls, protect your tootsies with the Womens Calvin Klein White Slides or the Tommy Jeans Funny Fur Slides and boys, be prepared with this pair by Mens BOSS. Trust us, this is one purchase that you won’t regret…

First Lecture

We hate to break it to you, but the first week of uni isn’t just parties, nights out and drinking games. At some point you’re going to have to get serious and head to your first lecture and, once again, it’s important to choose the right outfit. You want to make the best first impression possible with both tutors and course-mates and, here at OD’s, we reckon we have just the right thing. John Smedley is one of the latest designer clothing brands to hit our menswear department and the collection is bursting at the seams with lecture-appropriate apparel. Take for example the Mens John Smedley Belper Long Sleeve Knitted Polo Shirt in Grey. It is smart-casj with a subtly designer vibe and it works well when paired with the Mens Canada Goose Chilliwack Bomber and dark-wash jeans.

For the intelligent yet trendy females out there, we recommend either the Womens Love Moschino Logo Box Dress or the Womens Love Moschino Jumper Dress. Both can be styled with a pair of black tights and cute chelsea boots and, for those chilly mornings, layer up with the Womens Mackage Kadalina Down Fur Trim Hooded Coat. It may blow your student budget, but trust us, you’ll be grateful of the warmth and comfort when your hungover and heading in for an early morning lecture.

Going Out Out

So, this is the important one. Freshers week is your first week of freedom away from the parents, it’s notorious for being a wild one and, we guarantee, you’ll be hitting the bars and clubs every single night of the week. Unless you’re heading to a fancy dress party, you’re going to need a line-up of outfits – designer clothes that are slick, stylish, and guaranteed to pull in the compliments – and, here at OD’S, our designer clothing department is overflowing with potential options.

For trend-setting men, we recommend styling the Mens RH45 India Print T-Shirt or the Mens Vivienne Westwood Long-Sleeve Shirt with a pair of black skinny jeans. Together they will create a casual yet distinctive look and they are guaranteed to turn heads when throwing shapes on the dancefloor. Just add the Mens Android Homme Propulsion Mid Nubuck Trainers for that final designer touch. Ladies can also don their heels and head out to party in this Womens Rebecca Rhoades River Flamingo Playsuit. It is cute but sexy and totally unique. No matter which club you decide to hit up, there’s unlikely to be an unwanted twinning scenario with this outfit!

Prep Your Uni Wardrobe with Fresh Designer Clothes

The madness that is fresher’s week is about to begin and, if you haven’t already, it’s time to get your uni wardrobe prepared. It’s a strange time for most students; a little bit sad, a little bit stressful, but mostly incredibly exciting and fun. Be sure to look your absolute best and make that killer first impression. Browse our full online collection of designer clothing for men and women today, sort out those all-important outfits; then, pack up and head off for the best year of your life!

OD’s is a proud style aficionado; it’s fair to say, when it comes to the latest, hippest, and most promising designer labels, we certainly know our stuff. We always keep our eyes peeled for any newcomers on the scene and, for AW18, there’s one particular brand that was very difficult to miss – that is, luxury menswear brand, RH45. RH45 has hit the fashion industry at full speed, offering a collection of day-to-day streetwear clothing that is classically casual with a cool and rebellious twist. We couldn’t wait to get our hands on it and, here, we put this up-and-coming alternative brand into focus and explore the RH45 Mens Collection that has finally landed online and in store.

The Designer

RH45 was founded in 2013 by a young chap called Joshua Lanyon. A graduate from the London College of Fashion, with a BA in Menswear Design, he started his career as he meant to go on – that is, determined to shake up the all-too-boring and unadventurous menswear market. His first ever collection was rebellious, urban and fiercely modern and, as a result, it attracted the attention of contemporary fashionistas from all over the globe and since then the brand has continued to go from strength to strength. RH45 is now loved and worn by some of the world’s best sportspeople and musicians and his quirky collections are now being seen in designer label stores everywhere.

The Brand

As the chemical symbol for Rhodium, RH45 is a luxury designer label that certainly lives up to its name. The chemical element is regarded as noble, valuable, and extremely rare and, in many ways, RH45 men’s clothing demonstrates the same characteristics. Styles are constructed from the finest quality materials with an expert level of Italian craftsmanship and they have become renowned for their distinctive and bright evocative prints. Expect hand-painted and cool distressed effects, sleek leather detailing, and graphic images that are guaranteed to get your imagination whirring. RH45 is a rare and incredibly unique menswear brand that will make you stand out from the crowd; inspired by the streets of London, made in Italy, and giving off an impeccable cool and rebellious vibe.

The RH45 Menswear Collection

Here at OD’s, we absolutely adore RH45 for daring to be different and introducing a collection that isn’t the same run-of-the-mill stuff that we’ve become so used to seeing. If you’re looking for something a little more adventurous, something a little out of the ordinary, yet something that is still tailored to perfection, RH45 is the designer label for you – and with the new AW18 collection recently making its way into our store, it’s time to bring out your rebellious side and start shopping.

This collection is bursting at the seams with urban contemporary designs – designs that will take you effortlessly from days in the office to nights on the town – and we reckon it’s one that will go flying off the shelves in just a matter of days. Take for example the Mens RH45 Flower Print T-Shirt. Coming in either a classic black or khaki-green colourway, it features a vivid flower-inspired graphic print to the front and it is exactly what you need to create a statement designer look.. The Mens RH45 Doberman Print T-Shirt is another of our favourites, showcasing the brand’s signature white paint strokes and printed with an evocative image of a dog to the reverse. There’s no denying, these short-sleeved tees will make sure you stand out from the crowd this season; however, they also benefit from a pure cotton construction and they are comfy enough for day-to-day use. Simply style them both with a pair of grey jeans and a casual cosy hoody and complete the look.

The AW18 RH45 Menswear Collection also includes a number of hoody designs; all crafted from premium fabric with that same hip and impeccably cool vibe. We absolutely love the Mens RH45 Doberman Print Hooded Sweatshirt. Featuring a digital image of a snarly dog, the brand’s trademark paint stripe, and a leather ribbed patch to the left arm, it is an iconic design by this upcoming designer label and it’ll add a distinctive and rebellious touch to your everyday ensemble. The Mens RH45 Snake Print Hoody is a second design that completely epitomises the RH45 brand, with its evocative image of a snake, gunmetal zips, intricate bead detailing and black leather trims. It is the perfect layer for the cold winter months ahead. Just throw it on over a short-sleeved tee and jeans and create a practical yet high-end look for work and play.

Unleash Your Rebellious Side Today with RH45

RH45 is, quite possibly, the freshest designer label currently on the market and we are incredibly excited (and proud!) to be one of its first UK stockists. If you’re fed up with humdrum day-to-day essentials and casual wardrobe staples, why not be a rebel and try something completely different this season with RH45? Browse our full online RH45 Menswear Collection today or, if you’re in the area, pop into our store and check out this cool and luxurious menswear brand for yourself.

With the kids back at school and a definite autumnal feel in the air, it’s the perfect time to invest in a new kid’s designer coat and – here at OD’s – we believe there is one designer label that every parent should be taking into consideration for AW18… that is, Pyrenex. This is one of the very best winter outerwear brands in the business, renowned for its ancestral know-how and its unbeatable level of expertise. As a family business, founded more than 150 years ago, their knowledge and practices have been passed down from one generation to the next and the brand has continued to go from strength to strength over the years. Pyrenex is now one of the most popular and sought-after winter labels in the industry and the latest kid’s collection has recently made its way into our store.

But what makes a kid’s Pyrenex coat so special? Why does your mini-me need a kid’s Pyrenex coat in their life? Here we put this authentic and legendary brand under the magnifying glass, examining its ancestral know-how in a little more detail and outlining the main features of their world-renowned kid’s designer coats. Have a read and then check out the full online collection today!

The Main Features of a Kid’s Pyrenex Coat

Luxurious Feather Down

It doesn’t matter if you opt for a mid-length parka, such as the Boys Pyrenex Authentic Matt Fur Jacket, or a trendy bomber-style coat such as the Unisex Junior Pyrenex Aviator Fur Jacket, all designs by Pyrenex boast a luxurious feather down filling. This is the brand’s trademark feature. From the very beginning, they have been incredibly passionate about the quality of the raw materials they use – selecting only the finest goose and duck down and feathers, from the very best producers in France – and each step of the transformation process is painstakingly executed. Thanks to their natural filling, kid’s Pyrenex coats demonstrate an exceptional level of insulation whilst remaining light and durable and they have set the international standard. When it comes to a lush feather down children’s designer coat, we guarantee, it doesn’t get any better than this.

Water-Repellent Finish

Kid’s Pyrenex coats come in different shapes and sizes; however, one thing they all have in common is their effective water-repellent finish. Take for example the Girls Pyrenex Authentic Shiny Fur Jacket and the Boys Pyrenex Spoutnic Jacket. One design is intended for a style-conscious girl, one for a trendy young man; one features a mid-length design, the other a bomber-style silhouette – however, they are both constructed from the same wind-stopping and waterproof taffeta fabric. If the rain starts to fall on the morning run to school, simply fasten them up using the front zip and these kid’s designer coats are guaranteed to keep your little one feeling completely snug and dry.

A Cosy Fur-Trim Hood

Adding to their appeal, most designs in the Kid’s Pyrenex Collection feature a cosy hood. This hood is typically crafted from the same taffeta fabric as the coat, with a soft and silky lining and a luxurious racoon-fur trim. It’s fair to say, the British winter is getting colder and wetter with each year that passes and the “Beast from the East” is likely to return at some point over the next few months – therefore a cosy luxurious hood is bound to come in handy! It will offer an exceptional level of additional warmth on the coldest of days and, thanks to its elasticated cord and stoppers, it can be pulled in tightly to create a snug fit and it will keep out the gale-force winds and rain.

Iconic Pyrenex Branding

Aside from their technical features, it’s important to note the cool and contemporary aesthetic of kid’s Pyrenex coats. Their slim-fit yet puffer jacket design is currently all the rage with young fashion aficionados and, thanks to their iconic Pyrenex branding, they are a massive hit with kids who like to stand out from the crowd. Take for example the Unisex Junior Pyrenex Aviator Fur Jacket. Currently up for grabs in this vibrant red colourway, it is incredibly on-trend for AW18 and it is guaranteed to be a popular choice for boys and girls alike. Silver branded hardware can be found throughout and the iconic Pyrenex badge is stamped proudly to the left sleeve of the design.

Style it up with a pair of chinos and a blazer, dress it down with a pair of jeans and a hoody, the choice is yours. This is a highly versatile wardrobe staple by Kids Stone Island and it will be worn time and time again.

When it comes to those bitter autumn nights and frosty winter mornings, Kids Stone Island certainly have your little man covered. The AW18 collection includes a number of woolly winter warmers, including sweatshirts, track jackets and hoodies that are guaranteed to keep him feeling snug and looking stylish on the coldest of days.

Crafted from luxuriously soft cotton fabric, with ribbed trims and a round crew neckline, it is comfy enough for casual after-school and weekend wear. It also boasts a number of the brand’s iconic features, including an unusual marl fabric technique and the distinctive removable compass badge to the left arm.
