Every now and then we get enquiries about our laybuy service. We offer laybuy the original way you might remember from the 1990's (or earlier); of making manual part payments on an order and receiving your goods once it's fully paid off. Sometimes we're asked why we don't shift to using one of the new online laybuy systems available, and that is a good question which we can happily answer.

Autumn is here and it's time to start preparing for the rainy months ahead, so we've taken 30% off our whole range of Muddy Puddles PU rainwear, including jackets, all-in-ones, trousers, and bib & brace trousers.

Two recent arrivals in the stockroom from Frauline Prusselise and Moromini have replenished our range of fun socks for the whole family, and added some bright new tops and pants for you to enjoy.

We're super excited to bring you a fantastic range of adventure sandals from Xero Shoes - the Z Trail for both kids and adults. Designed to offer foot freedom and a barefoot, minimalist shoe experience, we've tested the Xero Z-Trails out on our own feet over the last couple of years and rate them extremely highly.

The whole Hoopla team is back from a wonderful break with our whānau and friends.
We have some big plans for this year, and some changes with new brands joining us, new items from existing brands and possibly even something for the bigger kids.

This week, once again, we’re stepping away from the usual Black Friday frenzy and looking at sharing, giving and caring with our annual Brightness Bundles.

These bundles are for someone in need of a bit of cheer. A gift to brighten someone’s day. This year has been tough for many people, for all sorts of reasons, and we think these small parcels of happiness can do a world of good.

Let's get down to the nitty gritty of fashion retail! It's incredibly common to find that all clothing items you buy in fashion stores are at some point individually wrapped in soft plastics. Clothes are taken out of these packages for display in stores. But the waste is out the back, building up. Since early 2018, we've requested our brands send us stock free of plastic. Many of our brands have been enthusiastically on board with our decision, and we are continuing to push for further change. Here's how we manage waste at Hoopla Kids

With Halloween around the corner, the classic Skeleton print from Maxomorra has arrived, just in time for the spooky season. 

With a range of hoodies, singlets, short sleeved tops, dresses, and even boxer and brief undies, you're sure to cause a fright in this sustainably made, organic cotton, spooktakular clothing.

We have a big range of summer goodies coming soon to Hoopla Kids, so we thought we'd show you what's on the way so you can be prepared. Check out Maxomorra's Spring 2021 collection, new Plae summer shoes, bright prints from Naperonuttu and more swimwear to come from Muddy Puddles!

We are thrilled to let you know that DUNS Sweden's new spring collection has arrived, and as always, we are in awe. Enjoy the nature themed prints of Enchanted Forest, Autumn Flowers, cute rabbits and dears in Hiding, and two new Radish colourways. Don't miss out on the stunning season of DUNS homewares - these are just the thing to bring spring colour into your home life.

Spring has sprung and we're doing a bit of spring cleaning. We’ve just added a pile of new items to our Last Chance section, including 30% off selected DUNS Sweden and Maxomorra, as well as 50% off all JNY.

Prepare for the new school year with 20% off a selected range of our quality gear!
