Boys & Girls Freiburg
Company-provided description, not an official-source fact. Certifications, capacities, years and market positions stated in it are the company's own claims until a record below confirms them.
Volume remains, but the silhouettes are no longer as oversized as in previous seasons. Wide trousers assert their position. O-shape pants (barrel leg) are becoming more important; also in technical qualities or with an adjustable hem. The (over)long trousers are complemented by shortened versions such as shorts, Bermuda shorts and culottes. Contradictions attract. Romance meets roughness: denim and jogging pants are presented in a new way by mixing them with feminine tops. Blouses with voluminous balloon or wing sleeves and boho details such as embroidery, 3D flowers, ruffles and flounces are considered fashion essentials.

Nothing here confirms manufacturing, ownership or trading status beyond what each record literally says.

- No match found on the sanctions lists we checked (record type: sanctions-clear) [our own observation, not an official record; name search, no matching candidate] We searched the public sanctions datasets and found no matching candidate. A name search is not full compliance screening. Screened by name only: no legal entity is established for this record, so this is not a clearance. checked 2026-08-16. OpenSanctions
- EU VAT number valid for cross-border trade (record type: vat-valid) [official record; status green] The number is registered and active: we asked the EU VIES service and it answered yes.
