About NØWN

What is NØWN?

NØWN is a curated online marketplace for independent and upcoming clothing brands, with a focus on streetwear and contemporary fashion. Every brand on NØWN is personally reviewed before it's allowed on — we don't let just anyone in.

What makes NØWN different?

We're not a catalogue of everything. NØWN is built around discovery — finding brands you wouldn't otherwise come across, not scrolling past the same names you already know. Every brand is hand-picked, and buying through NØWN goes straight to the people who made it.

How are brands selected?

Every brand applies and is personally reviewed. We look for independent ownership, original design, a clear identity, quality, and the ability to reliably keep stock and fulfil orders. Review typically takes 5–7 business days.

Is NØWN a clothing brand or a marketplace?

A marketplace. NØWN doesn't design or make anything — every product is designed and made by the independent brand you're buying it from.

Shopping

How do I buy something?

Add it to your basket and check out — payment is processed securely through Stripe.

Can I buy from multiple brands in one order?

Yes, into one basket. Checkout happens per brand though — adding items from two brands checks out as two separate payments, producing two separate orders (shown as "same checkout as above" on your account page so you can see they're linked). If you need to return something, it's per order, not per basket.

Do I need an account to shop?

Yes — an account is required to buy on NØWN. There's no guest checkout.

Orders & Payments

How do I pay?

By card, at checkout, through Stripe.

Who takes my payment?

Stripe processes your payment securely at checkout on NØWN's platform.

Will I receive an order confirmation?

Yes, a confirmation email when you place your order. This confirms we've received it — acceptance happens when the brand dispatches it.
