Gymboree New Concept Store with Lower Prices: Crazy 8 for Kids

According to Crazy 8, they provide "cool clothes for kids' crazy lives from sizes 0 to 14," because "Life is crazy...8 days a week!" Crazy 8 is a new division of Gymboree, but with lower prices. The cost of Crazy 8 clothes is 30% less than the wildly popular Gymboree clothing line.

Crazy 8 offers stylish clothing for babies, toddlers, and kids at reasonable prices. Crazy 8's clothing line is fun, cute, and comfortable for every day wear. Long sleeve tee's start at 2 for $6.

Canvas, khaki, and denim bottoms are priced around $16.50. Cute and cuddly fleece hoodies cost $6.99 to $24.50.

Crazy 8 even sells shoes, socks, and other accessories. Sleepwear starts at $6.99 for two piece pajamas.

A complete outfit can be purchased at Crazy 8 for $25 - $35 or less. Crazy 8 outfits newborns to child's size 14, boys and girls.

They offer a perk for shopping parents. Parents don't have to chase toddlers playing peek-a-boo between clothing racks. Every Crazy 8 store has a television in the back in an area designed for kids to watch T.V. while parents shop. I don't know if the viewing area is supervised, or if I would use it. At least, however, the store makes an effort to make the shopping experience easier.

Gymboree made an astute marketing move opening a brand name store, associated with Gymboree. This move is akin to Gap and Old Navy's correlation and Abercrombie & Fitch's relationship with Hollister. These corporations have had incredible success offering a slightly cheaper alternative to their more expensive clothing lines.

The first Crazy 8 store opened August 2007. The Gymboree Corporation plans to have 20 stores operational by the end of fiscal 2007. Until then, you can shop online at www.crazy8.com.
