Steiff Outlets & Sales
In addition to the brand's "regular" shops, which can be found in many major cities such as Düsseldorf, Nuremberg, Hamburg, and Stuttgart, to name just a few, and which always offer the latest collections of clothing, baby accessories, and, of course, the many soft and plush toys and teddy bears, the outlet stores and sale offers are also of great interest to customers. There are factory outlet stores with many sale offers in the following cities: Giengen/Brenz, Wertheim, Metzingen, and at salewunder.com. The Giengen/Brenz outlet also has the unique feature of housing the Steiff Museum, where you can admire the vintage bears and stuffed animals. A must-see for anyone who has ever had a Steiff toy in their childhood bedroom.
Special features of Steiff
Steiff has always stood for quality. Their motto is "only the best is good enough for children." This motto has been lived and implemented for decades. In the early years, it was with teddy bears, later with other cuddly toys, and today with so many other products that make children's and parents' hearts beat faster. The quality seal, which can also be found on sale and outlet items, promises: harmlessness to health, safe colors, high-quality materials, the finest plush quality, safe fillings, special seam processing, hygienic production, independent inspections, and quality that has existed since 1880.
Steiff for girls and boys
Of course, in a large collection of stuffed animals, there are always some that are more popular with boys and others with girls. This is especially true with special collections. Here, you can choose from Disney, Cola, Harry Potter, Looney Tunes, and many more. And, of course, a princess or a Mini Mouse will interest a girl more than a boy, who will then be more likely to choose a Looney Tunes character. The large children's clothing collection is naturally tailored to both girls and boys. The girls' collection predominantly offers skirts and dresses, but these are not as conspicuously "girly" as is often the case with children's clothing. Both collections, whether for boys or girls, are not gender-specific in terms of color. When you hear the name Steiff, you probably immediately think of the "Button in Ear." This trademark made Steiff products famous early on, and even today, as it was then, every child knows it. While the name used to stand for stuffed animals, especially bears, today you can also find many other things for your child and yourself in the outlet and sale at Salewunder.com. At salewunder.com, however, you can surf the site from the comfort of your sofa and choose the animals you like from the sale. The advantage here is that everything offered on the site is available at sale and outlet prices, making it significantly cheaper than in stores. The Steiff collection is large, and it's worth stopping by. You can discover up to 1,000 items from the brand here, and save up to 63% when you buy in the sale at the outlet.
The current collection offers everything for babies and cuddly toys
Steiff no longer just stands for stuffed animals in all sizes. You can also find everything for babies here. Since the company is particularly concerned with ensuring that even the youngest children don't come to any harm when they cuddle and hold their cuddly toy in their arms, there is a special collection for babies, tailored specifically to their needs. This means that cuddly toys for babies pose no danger, and you can safely purchase them in an outlet during a sale. Therefore, the teddy bears are divided into bears for children, for babies, as classic teddy bears, and of course, there is also a limited edition for absolute Steiff lovers and collectors. Teddy bears, as well as all other cuddly toys, are available in many different sizes, from very small to almost human-sized. These different sizes are also available in the outlet and during the sale. The Steiff baby collection also offers a wide variety of music boxes, comforters, baby blankets, rattles, grasping rings, crinkle toys, heating pads, and sleeping bags, all of which are, of course, also offered alongside the special cuddly toys for babies. There's also a fashion collection for babies and kids, perfectly designed for boys and girls. What's always a must-have, however, is the cute bear head on every single item of clothing. The collection for babies is available in the outlet and on sale in sizes 56 to 80, and for children from sizes 86 to 122, making it perfect for kindergarten age. Whether for cuddling at home, for the night, or for playing outside, the collection includes many suitable items of clothing for boys and girls. The design is always classic and therefore suitable for many occasions. There are also many accessories such as hats, scarves, and bibs for little sweet tooths. Steiff's clothing for children and babies is also available in the outlet and on sale at salewunder.com. In addition to the cuddly toy and fashion collection, Steiff also offers wooden balance bikes with a matching stand and basket for little ones. This way, even the youngest ones who are just starting to walk can always be mobile alongside mom and dad. With balance bikes, little ones learn to move well and use their legs as effectively as possible in a playful way.
The moving story of Margarete Steiff
If you've already done a little research into the Steiff brand, you'll probably know that the company was founded by a woman. Margarete Steiff was born in 1847. Despite polio, the little girl fought back and was even able to go to school. At 17, she completed her apprenticeship as a dressmaker and worked in her two older sisters' tailoring shop. When their sisters left, Margarete Steiff took over the business. In 1877, she sewed household items and clothing from felt. When she discovered a pattern for a small elephant in 1879, she made a matching pincushion. But things turned out differently, as the little animals became very popular as children's toys. On this basis, Margarete Steiff GmbH was founded in 1880. From then on, not only the small elephants but also other stuffed animals were produced. You might now be wondering where the popular Steiff teddy bear is, which every child still knows today. This bear wasn't actually designed by Margarete Steiff, but by her favorite nephew, Richard Steiff, who designed the first bear, the 55 PB, in 1902. This was the world's first teddy bear with movable arms and legs. However, it wasn't until 1906 that the bear was given its name "Teddy" after American President Roosevelt. At the same time, the trademark, the button in the ear, was invented. The company's worldwide success, especially in America, was now unstoppable; the Steiff company had grown to include 1,800 home workers and another 400 employees. In 1909, the company founder died of pneumonia at the age of just 61. Her nephews took over the management of the company. Today, the Steiff company can look back on a moving history. The legendary and unforgettable Karl Lagerfeld designed several plush toys, and there are museums exhibiting the old stuffed animals from the early years. Steiff began a collaboration with Disney and opened its own shops all over the world. But of course, the company's products can also be purchased in many outlet stores, during sales, and on the website salewunder.com.
