Everyday companion
Our clothing is exclusively made on site, in a studio in the heart of Berlin.
The everyday companion is a octopus sweater made of thin to medium-thick sweat fabric. It's comfortable to wear all year . Whether inside on cold winter days, under a jacket in autumn or as a pull-over sweater on cooler summer days. Its cut is designed so that children can wear it up to four sizes. In the product photos, we explain how our octopus grows with you.
All of our sweaters are made from second-hand, leftover and surplus goods and are produced by hand in Germany. No new fabrics are made for the Oktopulli, only what already exists in this world is used. We pay attention when purchasing the fabrics, of course, on quality. All the fabrics we use are made from at least 95% cotton and are OEKO-TEX 100 certified. We only use 100% organic cotton for the inner lining of the sleeves. Since it is much heavier, haberdashery secondhand or as leftover goodsbuy our cuffs if needed. Our seams are made from recycled polyester yarn.

🪡 Manufacturing
Our clothing is manufactured in the Oktopulli workshop in Berlin or in partner workshops in Germany.
📏 Size
You'll find the size chart in the product photos. The sizes are based on the children's height in centimeters.
If the child's height is approximately 3-5 cm before the end of an octopus size, we recommend buying the next larger size.
🧶 Material & Care
Material:
We make our children's clothing from fabric remnants from other slow-fashion labels or from fairly certified new fabrics. The production of the fabrics used is subject to the highest ecological and social standards. You can find the exact material description for this product in the product description.
Care instructions:
Organic cotton is a natural product and reacts to different water hardness levels, spin speeds, and temperatures. The sweater may shrink by up to 2 cm in length.
We recommend washing the octopus sweater at 30°C (max. 40°C). Optical brighteners and high spin speeds should be avoided. We have had good experiences with bleach-free organic detergents. It should not be tumble dried.
After drying, the sweater can be ironed on a medium setting.
📦 Shipping & Exchange
Shipment:
To ensure resource-efficient production, all of our octopus sweaters are only sewn after your order has been received. This typically takes 12-18 business days.
If for any reason you need your order sooner, please send us an email.
Exchange
Our clothing is subject to statutory exchange rights. You can return your octopus sweater if it doesn't fit. If necessary, we'll be happy to advise you on your size in advance via Instagram or email.
