JNR Station

JNR Station is packed full of high name brands, some of which I didn’t even know were still going. From Ugg to Dolce, Lacoste, Hackett and Tommy Hilfiger, it’s fairly pricey but it’s not going to leave you bankrupt.
I remember some of these brands in here were popular when I was at high school. Diesel, Converse of course, Lacoste and Ben Sherman were highly fashionable. I wasn’t interested in having a name branded over my t shirt even back then but I remember increasing pressure in secondary school to be brandished in these big names. I guess that’s why they called me a geek, I didn’t succumb to it.
I understand older kids want to look good, and parents want their kids to look good. The Converse trainers for babies are super cute but overall I would say that, for infants certainly, it’s a bit naff. It’s more expensive than buying them a baby gro out of Next, and even though there are some high end brands in here it’s a bit tacky to turn your baby into a fashion plate.
However, some parents like the brands in here, so although I think some stock is a bit dated and garish, some people might like it. See for yourself but for babies especially, what’s the point in decking them out in designers when they’re going to cover said brands in goo and poo?

JNR Station is a wee breeding ground for young neds. If you want your kid to be the king of the Kappa trackie when he grows up, the you might be able to pick up something in here to set him on his way.
A Lacoste t shirt for a wee boy will only set you back about £41, only to be carried home in the school bag the next week having been ruined at PE.
I personally think that kid’s clothes like this are obscene in both style and price; children should be children, and decking them out head to toe in Burberry or Tommy Hilfiger is a blatant waste of money and time, they’re sure to be grown out of it a couple of months later.
However, my objections aside, if you do want some designer wear for your baby, toddler or teen, then here is a one stop shop for it. A new season Lacoste tracksuit for 2 – 8 year old boys will set you back £118, and baby pre-​walker loafers made by Armani should be a drop in the ocean at £77. Unbelievable! The store itself is big and bright, and the staff very helpful and friendly. It is probably one of the nicest stores in the Princes Shopping Centre, but that isn’t really saying much to be honest.
