Ferd gives boys a license to chill
Here comes Jimmy Bond. He rolls up on a black Big Wheel and requests his favorite drink: chocolate milk; shaken, not stirred. Aunts line up to pinch his cheeks. And I imagine him wearing this effortlessly cool striped shirt and tie combo from Ferd. And maybe some tiny little sunglasses.
Fancy clothes for girls are easy to find, whether you're looking online, at Target, or at your local exclusive boutique. But so often, the special event clothes for boys involve polyester vests stitched to rolled up trousers, which can be cute but isn't very versatile. Ferd offers sharp but breathable cotton button-downs, as well as wardrobe staples like crew necks and v-necks in classic colors. Not to mention gorgeous 100% cotton boys' ties.

Keep in mind that Ferd is a little pricey-- after all, that 100% cotton yarn was imported from Italy and the styling is lovely. But they're built to last.

If your young Bond boy is gearing up for a wedding, you'll be glad to know that sizes go from 6 months up to 8 years. And their girls' stuff? You guessed it: Adorable too. But we're talking about boys, because Jimmy Bond still thinks girls are totally gross.~Delilah
