An activewear hub in Denmark’s oldest town

NEW FORM Ribe sits on Overdammen, one of Ribe’s characterful central streets, where half-timbered houses and cobbles remind you that this is Denmark’s oldest town. Step inside and the medieval streetscape gives way to a clean, modern shop floor dedicated to movement and the outdoors. Racks of softshell jackets, fleeces and technical trousers line the walls, with shoes, backpacks and accessories filling the central aisles. The shop belongs to the wider NY FORM family, a Danish-owned group focused on outdoor, sports and casual clothing. That heritage shows in the mix: practical layers for blustery North Sea weather hang alongside lighter pieces for summer days on the Wadden Sea coast. It is very much a one-stop spot for visitors who realize they underestimated the wind or forgot an extra mid-layer.

Scandinavian brands and everyday practicality

The selection blends NY FORM’s own Scandinavian labels with international names known for performance and comfort. You find functional jackets, quick-dry tops, running tights and walking trousers that suit both holiday use and everyday wear back home. Styles tend toward unfussy, sporty looks, with muted Nordic tones punctuated by brighter colors in children’s and training ranges. Families can kit everyone out in one place, from sturdy rainwear for kids to warm knits and casual dresses for adults. Seasonal offers often highlight coastal essentials such as windproof shells, caps, sunglasses and swimwear. The emphasis is less on high fashion and more on durability, value and pieces that can go from an afternoon in Ribe’s streets straight to a beach walk or bike ride.

Pet-friendly shopping in the heart of Ribe

One distinctive touch is that NEW FORM Ribe welcomes dogs inside as well as in the immediate outdoor area, making it convenient for travelers exploring with four-legged companions. The layout is straightforward and uncluttered, so moving around with a buggy or a dog on a lead is generally manageable. Floors are flat, with standard doorway widths typical of central Danish shops. Being in the pedestrian core, the shop fits naturally into a relaxed wander through Ribe’s narrow lanes and along the river. It is as much a pause point as a destination: a place to warm up out of a North Sea shower, browse a few rails, and perhaps pick up warmer gloves or a fresh base layer before continuing your day.

Seasonal gear for the Wadden Sea and beyond

Ribe is the gateway to the Wadden Sea National Park, and the store’s range reflects that maritime setting. In cooler months, you will see insulated jackets, hats, scarves and thermal layers suited to watching the famous starling murmurations or joining a mudflat walk with a guide. In summer, lightweight windbreakers, shorts and airy tops come to the fore, ideal for cycling through the flat marshes or strolling the nearby beaches. Travelers passing through on a broader Jutland road trip can also use NEW FORM Ribe as a practical resupply: picking up extra socks, a more waterproof shell or comfortable travel trousers after discovering how changeable West Jutland’s weather can be. Staff are used to helping visitors choose gear appropriate to local conditions.

A quick, focused stop within a wider Ribe itinerary

Most people fold a visit to NEW FORM Ribe into a wider day of sightseeing, using it as a brief but useful interlude between cathedrals, museums and riverside walks. The store is compact enough that you can scan the main ranges in a short time, yet broad enough that those who enjoy browsing sports and outdoor clothing can linger longer. With consistent daytime opening hours throughout the week, it is a reliable option when changing weather catches you off guard or luggage limitations mean you need to buy on arrival. Whether you are hunting for a new waterproof, a cozy hoodie for cool evenings, or simple everyday basics, this modern, sporty corner of Ribe’s old town is well placed to outfit you for the rest of your journey.
