The Haarlemmerstraat & -dijk is among the nicest shopping streets in Amsterdam. The huge range and diversity of crazy stores, eateries and coffee shops are a must see where you can wander around for hours. An absolute must is Sukha (Sankrit for joy of life), a modern department store where things are made and touched with love and attention. Fashion, accessories and interior design with a special story come together in this beautiful building with high ceiling and rustic decor.
Sukha collects products from Peru, India and Nepal, among others, that have been reused and or produced in other responsible ways. Sukha proves with her own label and with well-known and unknown brands that responsible has nothing to do with goat's wool socks. You will find the nicest handmade jewelry, trendy fashion, tableware and books. Many unique products of which there is often only one. For example, the unique sweaters from the collection of Alternative. These sweaters are a combination of plain sweaters from the USA and Burmese fabrics. Besides shopping, you can also go to Sukha for a cup of tea or coffee.
