On April 27th, the Netherlands celebrates Koningsdag (King’s Day). The date marks the birth of King Willem-Alexander.

The day is known for its flea markets in most cities, where the Dutch sell their used items and take part in various activities like koekhappen (suspending ontbijtkoek on a wire and trying to eat it without using your hands). There's also lots of music, made by both kids and professional artists at large outdoor concerts, and people tend to dress in orange, the national colour.

modmore is based in The Netherlands, as are our partners Sterc, so we thought we’d share the celebrations!

The sale runs from April 27 through May 1st 23:59. During that time our premium extras are available at the discounts shown above.

With all purchases over €50 (excluding tax, one per customer) we'll also send you a gift in the form of a typical Dutch treat: stroopwafels (syrup wafels). These delicious cookies will be sent to your billing address in the week following the sale, and will take between 2 days and 3 weeks to arrive depending on the customer location. If it's not possible to ship to your location due to customs regulations or ridiculous shipping costs, we'll offer you an alternative at an approximately equal value of around €10. This may include modmore merchandise or a credit for your future purchase.

If you need the gift to be sent to a different location, please email [email protected] before the end of the sale.
