The New Originals (TNO) is an independent Amsterdam label built by a group of friends who moved from a lifestyle blog into clothing, formally launching the brand in 2015 after operating as a creative collective. It works around the slogan "Creatives Are The New Athletes," pairing collegiate Americana with technical utility: letterman cardigans and knitwear, parachute-nylon cargos, workwear jackets, logo tees and hoodies in bold retro lettering. The brand runs a flagship store on Amsterdam's Zeedijk, remains independently owned, and sells direct plus through European streetwear retailers.
Overall fit
slightly large
Most pieces are cut with intentional room, so shoppers typically find TNO sits looser than a standard EU size, with tees, hoodies and cargos reading oversized on the body.
Tip: Take your usual size for the intended oversized look, or size down one if you want a closer, more regular fit.

By category
| Category | Runs | Shape | Size advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hoodies & sweatshirts | runs large | heavily relaxed, oversized streetwear cut | Consider sizing down unless you specifically want a very oversized hoodie. |
| Jackets | slightly large | workwear-inspired and roomy, cut with layering space | Take your usual size if you plan to layer knitwear underneath, otherwise size down. |
| Shirts & overshirts | slightly large | relaxed camp-collar and overshirt shapes rather than tailored | Go with your normal size for a loose drape, or down one for a cleaner line. |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | slightly large | boxy with a wide chest and slightly dropped shoulder | Stick with your usual size for the intended boxy look, or size down if you prefer a trimmer tee. |
| Trousers & pants | slightly large | relaxed to baggy, especially the parachute and cargo styles | Take your normal waist size but expect a wide leg and extra length that may need hemming. |
