Kids Hoodies · Germany

Wholesale Kids Hoodies in Germany — Direct from Turkish Manufacturers

Hoodies are the private-label workhorse for German kidswear brands and online sellers, but Germany is also where cord-safety rules are enforced most seriously. EN 14682 restricts drawstrings in the hood and neck area of children's garments, and non-compliant stock can be pulled from sale. Our default kids hoodie block ships with the hood cord removed or replaced with flat elastic, so the garment is compliant before it leaves the factory.

Market angle

EN 14682 compliance built into the block

Rather than treating cord safety as a checklist item at inspection, our hood pattern for the EU market has no cord channel in sizes below 7Y and uses a closed opening or flat elastic above it. Compliance documentation is supplied with the shipment.

Questions

Frequently asked

Do I pay customs duty importing from Turkey to Germany?+

No — under the EU-Turkey Customs Union, apparel ships with an A.TR certificate at 0% duty. You only account for German import VAT, which is deductible for VAT-registered businesses.

Are your organic lines genuinely GOTS certified?+

Yes, our organic cotton babywear is produced from GOTS certified fabric with certification documentation available — essential for the German market where organic claims are closely scrutinized.

Which fabric weight should I choose?+

280gsm loopback for spring and autumn ranges, 320gsm brushed fleece for general winter, 380gsm for Nordic and Canadian markets where children spend real time outdoors.

How do you handle drawstring safety rules?+

For markets restricting drawstrings on children's garments, we replace hood cords with flat elastic or a closed hood opening as standard, in line with EN 14682 and Australian rules.

Is the hood double-layer?+

Yes on our standard block — a double-layer hood with a bound edge and reinforced eyelet channel, which holds shape far better than single-layer construction.
