Canadian clothing retailer 'Muttonhead' has just released a new line of gender-neutral kids clothing called 'Lil’ Mutt.' The company is already well known for its high-quality unisex sportswear and now kids have an opportunity to sport the same aesthetic.

The children's apparel closely mirrors that of the adult clothing line in that each piece is designed around [comfy and classic sportswear styles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uniqlo-loungewear). With practical pieces such as [sweatpants and crew-neck sweaters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-second-dawn), the designs are in fact mini-versions of the adult-sized bestsellers. Not only is the clothing stylish and comfortable, but every piece in the collection is gender-neutral. Rather than tailoring specific clothing for boys or girls, the Lil’ Mutt collection is designed to be inclusive of all children.

And in keeping with the company philosophy, every piece in the gender-neutral kids clothing line is sweatshop free and manufactured suitably in Toronto.
