Made for More Than One Childhood
A garment's first childhood is only its first. We cut cloth to outlast trends, sew it to survive play, and when it is outgrown, we ask for it back. This is our circular programme — not a feeling, a mechanism. Here is exactly how it works.
Built to be handed down
Circularity begins at the drawing board. Every piece is designed to survive more than one childhood: fabrics chosen for wear, seams built for play, silhouettes that don't expire when a season does. The most convincing word we know is one we never need to say — because a garment that lasts speaks for itself.
Repaired, not retired
A mended knee is a story, not a flaw — and we think the repair chapter of a garment's life can be as inspiring as its first. If a piece needs mending, write to us: we'll send you a copy of our Repairs booklet — our ideas, stitches and patches for giving a garment its next chapter — or help you find a repair partner near you. We are building a map of local menders, one customer at a time.
Send it home — and take 20% with you
Outgrown? Send it back. Mail any Infantium Victoria garment to our Hannover atelier and we'll thank you with a 20% voucher for your next order. Each returned piece is checked, repaired where needed, and offered again in the Preloved section of our own shop.
How it works
- Pack any Infantium Victoria garment (washed, please) with your name and email inside.
- Post it to: Infantium Victoria GmbH, Hirschanger 2, 30559 Hannover, Germany. Shipping is at your cost — think of it as the piece's ticket home.
- When it arrives, we email your 20% voucher. Single use, no expiry, valid on your next order.
A second story: Preloved
Pieces that come home are checked, repaired where needed and offered again in the Preloved section of our shop, each one listed with its size. The same craftsmanship, a second childhood, a gentler price.
We no longer run peer-to-peer resale through an outside platform, and we are choosing a new partner for it. Until then, sending a piece home through the take-back above is how you pass it on with us — and you leave with a 20% voucher.
Circularity starts in the cutting room
The loop doesn't begin when a garment comes back — it begins before the first cut. In 2025, 10% of our production was woven from our own recovered cutting scraps by our partner Iro Iro in Jaipur, India; selected lines are cut from deadstock cloth — fabric that already exists, given a purpose; and 38% of production used low-waste pattern designs. These figures come from our annual Sustainability Report, where we publish the plan and the result, including the targets we missed.
The fine print (we like fine print)
- The take-back applies to any Infantium Victoria garment, from any collection, in any wearable condition.
- One 20% voucher per returned parcel; single use; no expiry; not redeemable for cash; sent to the email enclosed in your parcel.
- Returned garments are checked, repaired where needed, and resold in the Preloved section of our own shop.
- Questions first? Write to contact@infantiumvictoria.pro.
Frequently asked
Does Infantium Victoria take back old clothes?
Yes. Send any Infantium Victoria garment, from any collection and in any wearable condition, to our atelier at Hirschanger 2, 30559 Hannover, Germany, and we email you a 20% voucher for your next order: single use, no expiry. Shipping is at your cost.
Does Infantium Victoria offer repairs?
We help you repair rather than repair for you: write to us and we send our Repairs booklet, with stitches and patches for giving a garment its next chapter, or help you find a repairer near you. Pieces that come back through the take-back are repaired where needed before they are offered again.
Can I buy secondhand Infantium Victoria clothes?
Yes. Pieces that come back through our take-back are checked, repaired where needed and offered in the Preloved section of our shop.
Can I sell my Infantium Victoria clothes through you?
Not for cash at the moment. We no longer run peer-to-peer resale through an outside platform and are choosing a new partner. What we offer now is the take-back: send the piece home and receive a 20% voucher for your next order.
What happens to the clothes I send back?
They are checked, repaired where needed and offered again in the Preloved section of our own shop.
