We're excited to introduce our new concept, 'Kids Performance Wear' – where play meets innovation! Designed to handle the rough play and wear of outdoor adventures, this collection reflects our commitment to comfort, functionality, and playfulness. It features durable fabrics, innovative kinetic designs, and smart functional details, all made to keep up with every move. ‘Creating clothes that are made for play is a given and letting kids be kids is something we have top of mind throughout the design process. By using kinetic design in the construction of our new collection we have been able to design for movement in a totally new and innovative way and challenge the traditional way of garment construction’, says Carolina Vilca, Design & Buying Manager Kidswear. #kineticdesign #LindexKids

We're excited to share that the Science Based Targets initiative has approved our climate target! We aim to reduce our absolute greenhouse gas emissions from our own operations and value chain by 42 per cent by 2030, with 2022 as our baseline. As part of the Lindex Group, we share the common goal of reducing climate emissions across the Group. The SBTi's validation shows that Lindex Group's climate strategy and targets meet the Paris Agreement standards, proving they are backed by solid science. “SBTi's validation encourages us to continue accelerating climate actions while growing our business profitably and sustainably. The validation is an important milestone in our journey to reduce climate impacts and our systematic approach has already resulted in significant emission reductions. In 2023, we reduced Lindex Group's total greenhouse gas emissions by 11 per cent compared to 2022,” says our CEO Susanne Ehnbåge

This week, the Feminista of the Year gala, hosted by 'Femina,' took place. The event celebrated women who have made an impression, inspired others, and made a significant difference in society. During the gala, we had the honour of handing out our very own Lindex award and we are happy to announce Jenny Larsson as the well-deserved winner with the following motivation: ‘She not only shatters norms and prejudices about what a person with CP can do, she is also a role model in parenthood. With admirable patience and a large dose of humour, she shows the way, whether it's putting on socks or doing crafts for Easter. We hope this ‘funkivist’ continues to steer us right.’ Jenny Larsson has gained over 100 000 followers on Instagram where she shares what it’s like to live with CP and being a mother. 

Today marks an important occasion: Menstrual Hygiene Day. It's a day to break the silence surrounding menstruation and challenge the taboos and stigma that still surround it. Despite menstruation being a natural part of life with half of the world's population experiencing it, the topic remains a controversial subject surrounded by shame, taboos and stigma. This cultural silence maintains a cycle of shame and misinformation, hindering open discussions and access to proper menstrual health education and products. Breaking through these barriers is essential for promoting gender equality, bodily autonomy, and overall well-being for women. That’s why we continue to drive this cause, raise awareness, collaborate for positive impact and innovate to remove hinders for all women and girls out there.

A living room turned into a racetrack, and spilled flour transformed into a ski slope. That's just a glimpse of the limitless imagination showcased in our latest film, part of our new concept ‘Made for Play’, which reflects the playful world of kids. ‘We believe in letting kids be kids, that is our philosophy. With the concept, we enter the children's imaginative world, filled with play and adventure, where the clothes take on the role of faithful companions without anything standing in the way of their curiosity. Quality, function and comfortable fit are the core of our much appreciated kidswear, where we not only design for children but also think like them and look at the world with playful, exploratory and creative eyes', says Linda Olsson, our Director of Global Marketing. #lindex #lindexkids #madeforplay
