What is Finger in the Nose?

Finger in the Nose is a children's and youth fashion brand with a French name and a Paris boutique. The name comes from the French expression "les doigts dans le nez", meaning that something is easy, and is linked to childhood memories. The brand was founded by a Norwegian designer.

Products and positioning

The brand makes urban clothing for children aged 6 to 16, described by Time Out as "tough rebel urban wear". It aims to reinterpret classic youth wardrobe essentials with a bold attitude, using quality materials and functional designs. The range includes:

  • tailored jeans
  • graphic and rock 'n' roll T-shirts
  • fleece sweaters and mod-style check jumpers
  • bright red puffer jackets and warm parkas

Distribution

Finger in the Nose has a boutique in Le Marais, at 17 rue Saintonge in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris. The shop walls are blackboards covered in chalk slogans and drawings. The brand also keeps an active presence on Instagram and Facebook.

Why it matters

Its focus on older children and an urban, rebellious look sets it apart from the softer styling common in much of the children's market.
