Fashion & Accessories

Fashion and accessories focuses on children's clothing, garment care, and shoe care — categories where durability and safety trump trend. Children's waterproofs are tested on actual school-run conditions: repeated wash cycles, playground abrasion, zip tooth breakage. We check for BS EN 14682 compliance on cords and drawstrings (a real child-safety requirement) and avoid any garments with historical recall issues. Garment care products are rated on fabric-friendliness — a lint remover that shaves pilling but thins fabric is worse than a slower one that preserves it. Shoe care tests emphasise true waterproofing through multiple rainy commutes, not just fresh-out-of-tin performance.
