The Moxie Jean story

Babies can be expensive. They can be little consumption engines.

The diapers, the baby food, the toys, the gear, the clothes–the clothes! They go through the clothes so quickly. Onesies, sleepers, play clothes, dressy clothes, holiday outfits, bibs, socks. And if you have a taste for beautiful boutique kids’ clothes, you can easily spend $75 or more on an outfit, which they only wear twice and grow out of.

I love organic, well-made clothes (buying well-made clothes, furniture and other goods is one way to be “green”), but as a mom who tries to avoid conspicuous consumption and who wants to raise my kids to be socially responsible, I have often lamented the cost and waste of baby clothes. My sisters and friends and I have passed them around, sharing them as much as possible to distribute the costs among us.

But then I thought, ”Wouldn’t it be great if there were a central repository where my friends and I could store our gorgeous baby clothes when we don’t need them? Someone who could keep them clean and organized, and send me just the best of the bunch, in the sizes I need, just when I need them? We’d all save money, we’d buy less and waste less, and our kids would always look great.”

And that’s how this company was born.

Moxie Jean is place a for clothes with an exit strategy. Great clothes from your favorite brands and designers, in the sizes you need, when you need them. When you're done, we'd love to help you pass them on to another family.

We’d love to have you as another happy member of our community.

Warmly,

Sharon Schneider
