Tapping into the gender-neutral movement, Tootsa MacGinty is an award-winning, unisex clothing brand for kids. Pioneering a shift in parenting styles, it's one in a number of brands clothing tomorrow's generation. But could it also be a nod towards the future of kids’ retail?

Gen X may be overlooked by marketers, but they've impacted everything from music to fashion to politics.
