Sunny and Bear is a children’s lifestyle brand run by Kylie Bornman and Jordan Gerber, both living in one of the most beautiful places on Earth on the North Coast of South Africa. Kylie and her hubby Michael have three little adventure wildings, Fynnley Grace, Willow Wylde and Jory Judah. They own another business, Kipekee Studio, where all the Sunny and Bear furniture comes from.

Jordan (also known as Jords or Jordie) and her hubby Jean are expecting their first little wildflower, Summer Rae in October.  They’re both incredibly gifted humans, Jords running She Doodles & Co. that does all of S&B designs and Jean runs his own media business, plus they’re exceptional Youth Pastors too.

As a team we are inspired by music, late nights, coffee, early mornings, beach days, all of the books, traveling, the construction of a piece of furniture, the detail of a leaf, coffee, architecture, food, nature and all her wonderful beauty, Jesus, family, community, real life stories and bringing creativity to life. 

We are beyond excited for this adventure with all of you, our Sunny and Bear family. Pure, simple, practical, playful and free. Sunny and Bear lives for the beauty found in the simple, long days, adventures to explore and the wonderment of childhood.

About us

S U N N Y & B E A R

PURE | SIMPLE | PRACTICAL

PURE – to minimise our environmental footprint
You will notice that on every style we have alleviated the use of plastic buttons and
substituted them for concealed press stud stands to eliminate unnecessary plastic usage.
We have chosen to use 100% Linen as our fabrication for the following reasons :
Linen is the strongest natural fiber, it's non-allergenic and breathable. Linen is made from
the Flax plant which uses less water and fewer pesticides than cotton, making it the more
eco-friendly choice of fabric. Linen is fully biodegradable and recyclable.



PRACTICAL – our clothing is made with the wearer in mind. We have paid close attention
to fine tailoring and fit to make sure that our pieces are non-restrictive and comfortable,
allowing your little one to play freely.



With love
Kylie + Jordan

WHY LINEN?

Linen is the strongest natural fiber, non-allergenic, and
breathable. Linen is thermoregulatory - keeping you
cool in our warm South African climate and warm in
the cooler seasons.



Linen is fully biodegradable and recyclable -
yay to saving our planet one small choice at a time.
This beautiful fabric will start out fresh and crisp and
turn buttery soft with wear. All of our garments are
locally made with the greatest of care. We pay close
attention to fine tailoring and a comfortable fit. Our simple & timeless design and focus on practicality allows you to walk around freely in comfort and style.


When your garments become too old and worn to be
used, you can cut them up into smaller pieces and
bury them in the ground. Linen takes as little as 2 weeks to decompose.
